dreaming of pool days

After battling round 2 of "Snowpocalypse", it's very easy to dream of the South's warmer spring and summer days. Laying by the pool, reading my favorite magazines and catalogs (People StyleWatch, InStyle, J. Crew, and Nordstrom) while sipping on a cool lemonade sounds BEYOND appealing right now. Until then I'm bundled up in my winter's warmest procrastinating from doing homework, and perusing the Lilly Pulitzer spring collection (WHICH IS TO DIE FOR). 

The countdown to spring break is totally on, and I'm dying to get to the beach. I decided now would be a great time to share some of my favorite spring/summer/beach necessities. Lilly Pulitzer and anything BRIGHT are my warm weather must haves. I live for sandals, shorts (mainly denim and Lilly Callahans), and airy blouse season.
