Viva la Spring: A Warm Weather Look

Hopefully those of you that are experiencing cold snaps won’t hate me too much, but it’s just beautiful here in Tampa! With temperatures in the low 80s and a delightful breeze softly blowing, yours truly is enjoying life in the sunshine state right now and I’m dressing accordingly.

maxi dress

Here I am rockin’ yet another maxi dress. What can I say? I’m slightly obsessed! Add in another one of my favorite “trends,” stripes, and I’m a happy camper! What I love about this particular dress (which is not a maternity piece btw) is that you can tie the straps in a bow and wear it strapless like I did or you can tie them around your neck for a slightly different look.

I paired my latest maxi acquistion with BaubleBar’s lovely snowflake pendant (you can see a detail shot of over at my BaubleBar feature), arm candy from local Tampa boutiques Keys Country and Zooey Bloom and the Boushie wedges that Nine West was kind enough to send me. And once again, I have our lovely beauty editor, Annelis Diaz, to thank for my makeup! I wish I could have her come over every day. Haha!

So, has spring weather come to your neck o’ the woods yet lovelies?

Disclosure: I was provided with a necklace and a pair of shoes, but all opinions expressed are my own.

well considering that it snowed this morning, i have to admit that i’m just a tad jealous of your strapless-dress-wearing weather :) though i am admittedly happy that this weather justifies wearing opaque, colored tights. i’m going to miss those come summer…
you pull this dress off beautifully. it’s just so flattering. and if i might add, your rack looks wonderful!

Cheers,
Kristina

You look so pretty! It’s finally warming up a bit here in the panhandle, but it’s been gloomy and cloudy. I can’t wait for sunny, warm weather to settle in for good!

I love that dress! Definitely wish I could wear something strapless but it’s still so chilly here!!

From Brooklyn with love,

I am beyond jealous- of this gorgeous maxi dress-! You look amazing- and I love your accessories. I’m also jealous of your weather. It snowed again today here in the Pacific Northwest and I can’t seem to get warm today. I’ve got on knee socks, jeans, a wool sweater and the heat is cranked to 70 and I’m still cold. ARGH~!

We’ve been have some decent weather here in L.A. too. Just not consistent!

I also love that maxi dress. I lived in those when I was pregnant with my son. As soon as it’s consistently warm around here… the dresses are coming back out. They’re gorgeous and comfortable. Can’t beat that.

You’re positively glowing BTW!

You look amazing girl! And yeah, we’ve been super lucky here too, we have had the a/c on for half the winter, gonna be 80 for the next 2 days! Loving it!

Christina Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 10:31 pm

I would think it would be much easier to find looks to wear in the summer time when you can just throw on a flowy dress. You look great. The weather is definitely starting to look better. Even in Pittsburgh. It was up to 60 today!

Not that it’s particularly cold here, but I am jealous of your summer weather. Can’t wait to break out the breezy maxi dresses… would March be too soon? haha
