It’s been one of the coldest winters on record here in Florida (giving us a chance to wear something with sleeves for a change!) And, in other parts of the country, the winter storms have been brutal. My back aches for those of you still digging out of the snow banks! I remember those days well.

So, if you’ve got a serious case of Spring Fever, gaze at the image above and imagine yourself on vacation in somewhere warm and tropical. Aren’t the colors refreshing? (I’m now on a jag to go to Bora Bora after renting Couples Retreat last night! Looks spectacular!)

My stylist, Connie, created this look using a cute clutch from the Judy Crowell Collection on shopnbc.com. Visit Polyvore to see where she found the other pieces to create “the look.” Have faith! Spring is just around the corner giving us more wonderful reasons to be inspired.

How often do we anguish over the age-old monologue “I have nothing to wear?”  “What is appropriate for this interview; that business meeting; my luncheon?” “I’m bored.” “I need a pick-me-up.” “I feel out-dated.”

If you resemble this remark… heed the advice in the photo above from my Fashion Stylist, Connie. For the cute crackle-finish clutch, go to shopnbc.com.  Click on the picture, or visit polyvore.com for everything else.
