I'm totally in the mood for spring shopping, probably because our winter here in Nashville has been unusually mild. Already, the daffodils are starting to bloom in my backyard!
So I was psyched when the latest J.Crew cataog showed up in my mailbox.
J.Crew always has great ideas on how to style your basics so that they look current -- and this issue is no exception.
It's all about color this spring, and unexpected color combinations.
I love everything about this photo to the left -- The addition of a bright blazer to your spring wardrobe can liven up a basic button down shirt and jeans.
And I'm crazy about the red sandals.
Want to see more inspiration to help you update your closet for the upcoming warmer weather?

I'm thrilled that the statement necklace is super hot for spring, and this bubble necklace (J.Crew, $150) is to die for. It also comes in turquoise, and I love the idea of pairing it with a contrasting top or dress.
It's all about the bright toothpick capris this spring -- Choose a color you like and wear them with everything.
They really do a lot to make a boring outfit more interesting, don't you think?
Finally, you too can look like a high-powered businesswoman by wearing this smock dress ...
Just kidding. I had to include this photo, because J.Crew has it in the work clothes section of its catalog. I laughed out loud! The color is pretty, but the model looks like an oversized kindergartner in this thing. Can you imagine wearing it to the office?! Awk.Ward.
Overall, though, I'm excited about the spring trends! Are you?
