Warm At Last
I spent the weekend in Vegas, where on Easter Sunday the temperature peaked at 75 degrees. It was the first time in far too long that I can remember stepping out without piling on at least half a dozen layers, and feeling the sun on my bare arms made me euphoric. My mind was racing with fantasies of my yet-to-be-acquired summer wardrobe, and one thing I know I want is a stash of gauzy, exotic white blouses. I love their balance between sweet and cool, and from a practical standpoint, when it's really hot out, it's hard to beat anything that's light in color and cut from featherweight cloth. I've had great success finding nice ones on trips to Mexico, but since I'm not going there anytime soon, I'll buy the Corey Lynn Calter top I just spotted on Anthropologie's website. The silhouette is akin to a simple V-neck tee, but it's got some gorgeous details: intricate appliqué trim framing the collar, and really fine silver pinstripes that add the perfect hint of flash.
I feel your pain! I just got back to CT from Las Vegas and Southern California and I bought a bunch of warm weather things that I won't be able to wear for at least a month :(
I just bought the Reengineered Blouse from Anthropologie. I can't wait until the weather gets nicer and I can wear it with a nice flowy ethnic skirt. I also snagged some gladiator sandals from Old Navy that will add to the breezy ensemble.
