Spring is almost here! Are you feeling it where you live, too? The temperatures climbed above 30° this week, and I was so excited, I showed a bit of ankle the other day like a hussy. I’m eager to wear the pair of striped shoes that I picked up recently ($22 bucks, and super cute), but I figure I should wait for the slush and snow piles to melt first. A little ankle is one thing, but showing the whole top of the foot? Who do you think I am?
Anyway. I want to wear this whole outfit right now, bare legs, stripey shoes, and all.

The Good Machinery, Ciclop Bracelet, Adorn Milk
A whole stack of ’em, just like that. -
Derek Cardigan Glasses, Coastal
Keyhole bridge = nerdy chic. -
Nars Lipstick in Gipsy, Sephora
My go-to color these days. Like my natural lip color, but with a bit more oomph. -
Moth to a Flame Shift Dress, Gorman
My favorite scarf is printed with beetles all over it. If I had this dress, I could start a small collection of insect-themed clothing, and life would be awesome. -
Dream Collective Brass Levine Earring, Belljar
Simple, but with enough detail to make them interesting. -
Bernice Taper Toe Two Piece Flats, Target
Adorable, affordable. Perfect spring shoes. -
The Zip Transport Bag, Madewell
I carry a similar tote most days, but I wish mine had a zipper. This one does.

I’ve always liked you Nicole, but the use of the word ‘hussy’ has endeared me to you. Forever (;
Strumpet is another fave of mine!
P.S. Now I have the first sentence of Janet Jackson’s “That’s the way love goes” in my head.
“Like a hussy” I spit out my salad laughing. Yea, spring and hussy ankles!
…can we please make “hussy ankles” a thing now? because i adore it. (i didn’t wear tights today for the first time since forever–the only thing exposed between my skirt and boots are my knees [hussy knees!], and the breeze is quite refreshing. i’m excited to let the rest out to play soon!)
I wonder if a good luggage repair place could add a zipper for you. I suggest this like I have bothered to take any of my leather luggage in for repair, ever…
Oh how I wish that moth dress came in kids sizes. My daughter _loves_ moths.
Did you see this cute bug girl dress? I just ordered it for my little one. :)

I always love your style posts – I inevitably end up hunting down one (or more) of the items you feature. I’m pretty sure those shoes are a must-have for the Spring (come on, Spring!). Thanks for sharing!
That dress…. is just about the best thing I’ve seen in a good long while!
Dang you Nicole, I’ll be dreaming about those moths for weeks!
Love your fashion posts!
Also I just had to brag that its going to hit 80 today and we are going to the beach ;)
Thanks doll,

Swing dress is nice ….. but, wow, the Gorman “moth” quilt got to me. Very clever and cool. Not sure re $$$. Thinking about it. However, a tad much to spend on a little boy! Ha.
