Photo Booth: Spring in My Step

The second the temperature heats up, I shove all my tights in a dresser drawer and revel in bare legs and skirts.

Shirt: JC Penney; Skirt: Old Navy; Shoes: Nurture

This skirt poofs and swishes around when I walk. It's got pockets. It has an elasticized waist. It's a skirt for the woman on the go...and by "woman on the go," I mean "teacher who enjoys snacking."

Early morning is my favorite time of day. The light is the prettiest then. It's filled with hope, with the promise of a good day ahead. (Twilight is the next best, except it's filled with the promise of bedtime reading and sleep, which I like even more than adventures sometimes.)

BONUS PHOTO! I'm doing the Charleston with my friend (who is very much about the privacy, so she's cropped out) here. The dress is thrifted.

I love wearing a dress to swing dance because when the fellas twirl me around, the skirt flies all everywhere and I feel fancy and old-fashioned. I've got a yellow-and-white polka-dotted number that's going to make its debut on the dance floor (and this blog) soon. I'm going to knock them out with my cherry-red lips and bright swirly sundress!
