Dress: c/o DownEast. Blazer: Loft. Shoes: Jessica Simpson. Necklace: Vintage. |
Last weekend spring decided to finally make an appearance in the Pacific Northwest.
I don’t know if it will stick (please let it stick, please let it stick), but I do know that yesterday afternoon as we were driving home I saw blossoms on some trees. Blossoms!
This deserves a party people.
When it’s all beautiful and springy out, I love putting on a breezy chiffon dress. Especially if it’s pink and has cream colored dots all over it.
Like this one for instance.
Add a tailored blazer for a little structure and I’m pleased as punch.
Would you like to win something lovely for spring?
Because DownEast is giving away any item from their online Boutique to one lucky La Vie Petite reader.
To enter:
Visit the DownEast website and pin one item that you love. If you don’t have Pinterest, just tell me what you would pin.
That’s it.

Good luck,
and may the odds be ever in your favor.
Ahhh, I love DownEast!!!
I pinned the atreyu skirt! Love it.
