pictures for spring

I know it's not actually spring yet. But my plans for the immediate future involve moving from a place where it's a tepid kind of winter to a climate that will feel to me like summer. So I am pretty much skipping spring this year and going from winter to summer to hotter summer. Therefore I'm going to indulge my spring fashion fantasies now.

This is embarassing, especially as a Seattlite, but inspiration struck me at Starbuck's. They've updated all their merchandising since last time I was there and what they were doing got me thinking of bleak Andrew Wyeth paintings. And I liked it. A lot. Generally I'm against spring fashion as represented in magazines, and this year has been no exception. I do not like tribal prints and that Vogue Italia spread with the patterns and tattoos is just not for me. I'm kind of surprised to find that what appeals to me is a different take on some of the same things..

Call this a lookbook for "spring" if you want. Or call it a bunch of photos from Flickr and a little Polyvore. Either way, enjoy!
