i do know that technically there’s still a ways to go before summer, and it’s even snowing still in parts of the country, but clothing wise, i’m so over the cold weather.  while it actually has been spring-like here in texas, with warm days and chilly nights, any sort of in-between weather here is fleeting, and soon enough we’ll be sweating our asses off.  i can’t help but think that the preen check lantern dress might be the most perfect summer dress ever.  pair with the chloe saturina bootie, marc by marc jacobs shoulder bag and wendy nichol earrings for brunch and a day of shopping.  i don’t condone flip flops in public, even if it is summer, but feel free to replace the heels with black flats to run down to the 7-11 for one of my summertime staples, a coke slurpee.
