Glittering Fools

As pumped as I am for warmer weather, I always like to look back in appreciation of fall/winter styles before it's time to spring forward.   I love the rich textures and colors even though I get excited for bright colors and festival-isnpired threads each year.  March is always a great time to play around with transitional pieces and to get another wear out of a fall or winter favorite.  Here's looking on the bright side when the weather gets weird! { sunnies: Balenciaga  // bag: Victoria Beckham // dress:  Alexander McQueen  // pumps: Prada }
