waiting for {spring}

Who doesn't love spring!? Luckily, "it's coming early this year", says the groundhog. I can tell you, no one looks more forward to spring than us up here in the northeast. Today, we're looking at a rainy, gloomy, 40 degree day and it's only supposed to get colder & snow as the day goes on. It's winter days like these I think we could all use a little 'pick-me-up'. What better way to do so than to look to the future? Of course by future I mean in a few weeks when spring should be sprung!
 
As I was perusing the oh-so-reliable Pinterest earlier, I came across some lovely spring inspiration. Get pumped y'all for some spring! :)
 
 
Nothing says spring more than a beautiful spread of flowers. I like to mix it up with different types, different colors and vases. Really brings a uniqueness to it.
 

I personally think wallpaper could go either way. It can be cheesy or cheap looking OR it can look lovely if done the right way! I really like this floral wallpaper. It looks very chic & yet very simple. I think if I was to do wallpaper in my house I would only put it on one wall to act as the accent wall. It'd be so adorable in a home office or a bedroom!
 
 

 
Is anyone else grossly obsessed with Essie nail polish, or is it just me? I try to contain myself while in the store, but sometimes I just cannot help myself! The new Essie spring collection is pretty neat and I'm definitely planning on getting them all at some point. :) As a momma & a "momprenuer" so-to-speak, it's hard to find time to sit, relax, & paint my nails ALL the time. When I do though, it's epic. It's amazing what a little coat of nail polish can do for you. Especially in these spring colors!
 

I'm also slightly obsessed with Madewell. This particular outfit is super springy with the colors, the fabrics used, & the print of the cardigan. I like the lemon-colored skirt paired with the ballet slipper tee. I am in love with this! It's fresh & it's casual for a nice spring day in the sun!
 

From bridal and evening wear designer, Jenny Packham, comes a gorgeous 3 1/4 inch sleeve floorlength dress. Just look at that color! Her whole SS '13 collection is filled with light & bright, breezy colors. Lots of whites & metallic colors too. Love every single piece!
 

Finally, for the kiddos! I can see me dressing my son like this one day soon. The hub will roll his eyes, but it'll be ok because you know what!? -He will look darn cute! ;) This kids collection is by the Dutch brand WE fashion. I recently discovered WE fashion on Pinterest & I've been following them ever since! Unfortunately, it looks as if us USA peeps cannot buy just yet. It's alright though, it's great to look at & pull inspiration from! They are some talented people!
 
 
Well that'll do it for my 'waiting for spring' roundup. I can't wait until spring is finally here & we have those blue skies & sunny days! I see spending time at the park, taking long walks, visiting the zoo & aquarium, & of course all the fairs & festivals! Who's with me? :)
 
 
Off to have lunch with my mister man & finish up my 5th installment of the yoga mat bag! Check the shop later!
