Today is the first day of SPRING!!! And it couldn't be more beautiful in Texas than today. The weather is perfect and the sky is as blue as it can be. Flowers are blooming, pollen is in the air and the cool breeze just soothes away all the stresses of the week. It's too early for linen and too late for wool. But it's still surprisingly cool enough to need a light jacket so why not step out in style with a lightweight trench, that always looks put together even if it rains. Get that classic Parisian look and pair your trench with horizontal stripes and flats, masculine loafers or if you're like me...my favorite CHUCK TAYLORS. Shop for the essentials here at {dls}!
