What I Wore, Transition Into Spring Sunshine . . .

 Earlier this month, still rainy and grey outside but (barely) warm enough to move the mason bee cocoons out of the fridge (then immediately worry we'd been premature) . . . I made the first tentative steps toward spring dressing. I know, very tentative, still wearing black, my legs still clad in tights. . . but look? short sleeves! and it's a dress that's NOT a sweater dress. . .

Which led, next, to me pulling this dress out of the closet. It's also short-sleeved, a very wearable viscose, perfect for spring-summer travelling, picked up last year in Paris at La Fée Maraboutée. I hope soon to be wearing it as I did in Croatia last spring, with bare legs and my metallic gold sneakers, but last week I still needed tights against the chilly rain, a lightweight cashmere cardi, and a lightweight scarf I've had for seven or eight years, ankle boots I bought in Bordeaux three years ago. I like the pattern mixing of the dress's bronze-y almost-yellow and grey with the scarf's grey and muted yellow plaid. . .

 I often feel pretty silly taking these outfit shots in the mirror, so I thought I'd pull a few silly Photobooth faces just for fun. . .  Goofy 'r' Me . . .

And maybe it took some funny faces to bring out the sunshine!

So the next outfit I'm sharing is the one I wore to my watercolour class last week -- not into my white jeans yet, but these are my very faded Levis worn with a shirt I bought in Portland last month . . .

a hand-printed silk organza scarf I bought on my Sisters' Trip to Paris a few years ago

and the metallic gold sneakers (Onitsuka Tiger) my daughter inspired me to buy last spring (okay, yes, I copy-catted her). These shoes, also seen here and here and here, have become such a wardrobe staple, but I wasn't wearing them much through the winter rains. Glad to have them reflecting the sunshine again.

And since we're talking Tigers (the sneakers, see above), this one (sweatshirt by All Saints, at least a year old) was purring in the sunshine on Sunday. . . Okay, yes, temperature topped out at 13, Celsius, that day, but in the sunshine, walking briskly, it felt warm enough for my white jeans.

Again with the metallic gold sneakers (but I've got a pedi booked for this afternoon because my white Birkenstocks are coming out of storage today!).

I was realistic about how chilly 13 degrees can feel in the shade or with even a slight breeze. But I really wanted to hold onto the Spring vibe. I tried my jean jacket first, and I think it almost works here. . .

but I ended up swapping it out for this very light cashmere scarf, and it was the perfect solution. Do you find that if your neck and shoulders are warm, the rest of you can feel okay?

And the occasion for this Spring Outfit?
Oh, the absolute best -- A date with a Five at the Vancouver Art Gallery to see the Takashi Murakami exhibition. I posted a few photos of her reaction to Murakami's lively pop art -- you can see them on my Instagram feed. But I snapped a photo of the two of us in the mirror of her condo lobby before we headed for the Skytrain. And it's true -- she completely outshone me -- Sequins! Tulle! Converse sneakers!

This afternoon, the temperature here is expected to climb to high teens (Celsius) and we may even hit 20 before the week is done. There's rain on the horizon, but that only makes the sunshine sweeter while it's here, right? And once my toenails are painted and the Birks are out of their winter home,  who knows what I'll pull out of the closet!

So there you have it, a three-week transition from Barely Spring to Walking on Sunshine Spring! And what about you, any significant wardrobe transitions happening around the seasons? Or wardrobe transitions not related to the seasons? Or you might tell me how you would dress for a Nana-and-Five date at an Art Exhibition? Might you try to match sequin for sequin, tulle for tulle, high-topped sneakers for high-topped sneakers?  It's all good, right? It's all good. . . . Happy Wednesday!
