Color is Key

It's officially springtime and I was thankful to see that most of the bulbs I planted last autumn survived the winter and all the hungry critters.  I had a couple of very determined armadillos dig up most of my flower bulbs in the yard last year and was worried they would find this stash out here in the woods, but life found a way.  In fact my yard was looking quite lovely until a surprise freeze hit. 
I don't like to pick flowers, preferring to let them live as long as possible outdoors, but since the nasty weather would surely have done them in, I decided to gather them all up to brighten our indoors for a while.
I am breaking out the spring colors, the brighter the better.  This outfit is a thrifted find from early December 2025.  I've been looking at this Eva Franco dress for years now and finally saw one cheap enough that I decided to get it.  While it would be just as nice to pair this dress with some neutrals, I already had shoes and a cardi that perfectly matched the bold hues in the print and it's time for colors!  I'm trying to have a better attitude about the winter, but I also don't mind saying that I am so happy to see flowers blooming and hear the birds chirping again, and the world being painted in color once more.
