Yearning for Spring

It has barely been winter here in NYC, but I am already dreaming of spring. I walked past Tompkins Square Park yesterday, and there were confused croci, who, in the weird warmth had begun to bloom. Now they sat suspended in the frost. Like them, my mind is a mess, and while I am still cozy in my winter coat, I pass delicious shop windows filled with signs of spring.

In a stroll on the Lower East Side, the shop, Shop, was filled with frilly lacy things, and I imagined myself lounging around, anguished in the heat. TG-170 is starting to tempt with lovely springy dresses. Sadly their website is about a season behind. Here are some spring frocks to get you dreaming.

I love me this J.Crew shirt dress. It is the perfect change of seasons look. Rather then screaming "SUMMER", it murmers "Yes, I do believe it is time for Spring". When that first nice slightly warm day arrives late in March, this is what you reach for.

This Susan Monaco wrap dress is so simple, it won't insult your intellegence with a lot of bells and whistles. It asks you to do with it what you will, all while flattering your stuck in the winter figure.

Float like a butterfly in this LaROCK dress. I'd probably pair it with some capri length leggings, and those amazing flats I bought on sale in the fall and never wore.
