it is officially spring. the budding of trees and blooming of flowers inspires me to pull out my wardrobe of color, magenta, pinks, purples, and spring greens. i want to ditch the black and add more white, but the weather here in the pacific northwest does not really allow for such wardrobe changes. it is still cold, rainy, and dreary.
i have sucked it up this past week and donned more short sleeves, foregoing the long sleeve sweater or cardigan, leaving my arms exposed to the elements. on a short sleeve day while visiting bethy she exclaimed, look at your arms, i haven't seen them since summer! i looked down at my goose bump covered pasty white winter arms and giggled at her exclamation. it is true, they haven't made an appearance in a while.
so my challenge is coming to an end. i was told yesterday by the challenge givers that we get to shopping at the end of april! yahoo!!! i am pretty sure i jumped up and down at this news. i do have to go the rest of this month with as many new outfits as i can. as i mentioned in a previous post, i am getting down to the wire, the things i have left are hard to wear in this weather, but i will do my best to make them work.
the thought of going shopping has got me thinking about things i definitely want and need. i have two trench coats and a light weight red spring jacket, but i would really like a solid colored trench. black would be okay, but maybe a bright color like magenta would be fun. i am also in desperate need of new jeans. i haven't purchased new jeans in at least the last 5 years. can't wait to go shopping with the ladies!
