Who else is ready to say goodbye to New England winter until next year? After a particularly snowy year, I think I speak for all New Englanders when I say I’m extra eager this time of year to transition over to my spring wardrobe. The older I get, the more I find myself reaching for the same timeless items year after year — versatile pieces that are practical for both life on the go with little kids and unpredictable spring weather where a rainy day can give way to sunshine on any given afternoon.

Last week I shared a huge denim try-on in my favorite white button-down shirt and decided to keep these flattering kick flare jeans that will work with flats, sneakers, and sandals. I just ordered this crisp poplin shirtdress as an option for Easter and find the fit pretty perfect — it’s one of those closet staple pieces I can already think of a dozen occasions to wear it for. Excited to trade my boots for ballet flats and my winter puffer for this cinched eyelet jacket… New England spring, we’re ready for you!
