My mom snapped these photos of me the week before we went on a “shelter-in-place” here in the Bay Area. We enjoyed a walk in downtown Saratoga, and we also went out lunch. It seems like such a long time ago, but it really wasn’t. My mom was concerned about the petals on the ground since we both suffer from seasonal allergies; I really wanted to take pictures with the petals. I felt like they were pretty and spring-like.

This reversible kimono is part of my spring capsule wardrobe, and it’s a great way to enhance a casual spring look. Especially now, when we are all at home and only going out in public to buy groceries, grab take-out food, or visit the pharmacy. This kimono can brighten any jeans and tee look. I love clothing which can put a smile on my face. This floral kimono is happy and cheerful; something we all need right now.

I’m look forward to everyone getting healthy, and the shelter-in-place getting lifted. When that happens, I will likely live in this kimono on an almost-daily basis. It’s the perfect outfit enhancer.

I hope you are all doing well, and if you are on lockdown too, check out my tips section! I am alternating between tips and spring coverage during this time.

You can the flip-side of this kimono here.

Blossoms are blooming, and I am reaching for my spring wardrobe! I wore this casual look while enjoying the spring weather at Santana Row. The espadrilles were super comfortable for walking around. The tee paired with a scarf, was just right for the mild spring-like weather. I even pulled out my little yellow tote bag! I felt so springy! haha

I love elevating jeans and tee with a scarf; but I think you have heard me say that before. haha This scarf is fun for spring since it has a pretty pattern on it, and works well with spring’s color palette. It can be worn with so many outfits! You can see more on my spring capsule wardrobe post.

I’m loving this cute little tote bag in yellow. It feel cheerful, and is just big enough to fit all my essentials. Stay tuned for a review next week!
