Look Book: Flowers, Petite Bow-Ties & Spring!!

Mar 26, 2012

As much as I love layers like hats, scarves and super cozy cardigans, sometimes it's just so nice to throw on a dress, simple tights & a great pair of wedges. Easy dressing, yay! I must say it feels pretty great to be back with an outfit post after all my TxSC recaps. I was seriously having withdrawal. Hehe, you know you're a blogger when, right?! On this particular day, we had the chance to try our brand new (woot!) Canon 60D. Martin's in the throws of reading the manual and we're talking about taking a photography class together too - fun!
I've been loving wearing my hair in loose waves. It's such a nice change from my usual straightened hair and it's a little less work too, sold! In fact, with spring now in effect, I'm full of all kinds of new inspiration. I have ice-cream dates on the brain, long bike-rides, and I can't stop buying pretty dresses & skirts. I love this time of year for both the weather and fashion!
Today I'll be playing catch-up after being away in Austin, and with Martin's health scare, I haven't really had a chance to catch my breath. I have lots of projects on the go and I'm really hoping to finish them. We're painting one of our living room walls a slate grey, and I'd like to finish the rest of my jewelry pieces this week and then photograph & upload them to the online store. I'll try to include a sneak peek in my next post. Hope your Monday is off to a great start, guys! xo veronika

  4. I'm in love with spring weather too! Haha, makes for such fun fashion and things to do. Your dress is lovely, and simply paired with the tights and wedges, is very pretty. :)
    Oooh, a photo class together would be so fun! Plus, it would make the blog even better, huh? Glad Martin has recovered. He'd better be in good shape for the bicycle riding dates haha

  35. 1. You make me jealous. I can't go out without most of my skin covered, still. Oregon isn't playing nice.

    2. I was about to tell you to slow down and take some time for yourself, but then I might as well be saying, "hello pot, I'm black. Nice to meet you."

    3. Your entire look here seems so effortless. Bonus points for easy-to-style hair!

  36. You look so cute :D simple and perfect!

  38. this dress looks wonderful! you must have about 100 dresses in your closet - I wish I would have only some of yours! I'm so difficult when it comes to clothes, I'm standing in the shop and can't decide what I want...

  41. I love this look on you, right down to the soft waves–I've been wearing my hair that way lately, too, and it's so nice not to have to pull out the flat iron!

  42. It does feel nice to wear a simple dress sometimes. I like the floral print.

  46. This dress is so cute and looks fantastic on you, Veronika! Glad to hear you're slowly getting back into a rhythm - mostly because I always enjoy seeing your outfit posts, of course ;-)

    We should plan a get-together soon again. It feels like it's been ages (in fact, it's only been 1 month, right?)!

  54. I've always loved your bangs, when ever I tried to do the full bang thing it turned all unruly and blah. I guess I can just live vicariously through your pictures though!

    I'm totally with you on the whole dresses and skirt binges. I just want to buy yellow and baby blue jeans and swinging full skirts. It's getting so hard to not explode my credit card out of the water.

    And ice cream dates sound adorable :)

  58. Isn't it wonderful that spring is finally in the air, Veronika? I know it's making me feel much more cheerful and I can definitely see that in your spring dressing, too :) This dress shows off your mile-long legs in such an enviable way! I can't wait to see you wearing it without tights... Any day now, I'm sure. So glad to hear that Martin is feeling better now. Hope your week is going well!
