The weather has been teasing us here in Alabama.
Spring-like days last week. Sunny...warm...then rainy.
Cooler this week.
Even colder temps coming this weekend.
But I'm thinking of giving Spring a little push.
These fashions from Modcloth.com have me dreaming of warm, sunny Spring days spent with my sweet hubby in the great outdoors.
Picnics, flea markets, sight seeing...the list goes on and on.

I love the Modcloth website!
They even give suggestions on accessories to wear with their dresses.
Here's the description for the Sunny Expedition Dress above:
Before you head out into the wild and winding streets of the city, be prepared for an enjoyable voyage in this adorably simple khaki dress! Built from steadfast cotton-blend cloth, this classic dress boasts flattering bodice darts, hidden back zipper, and padded cap sleeves, and easily meets your need for a comfortably cute journey. Add a braided belt, chocolate riding boots, a stellar blazer, but don�t over-pack your tote, because the road ahead has many fun adventures!

I could SO make these dresses!
I'm thinking it's time to go out a buy a pattern and sit myself down in front of my sewing machine.
I found this wonderful website just yesterday that has pics of dresses, mostly from Modcloth.com, and shows a sewing pattern that's comparable to the dress.
You might want to check it out:
Go to Sewweekly.com and click on Make This Look.
I'm so inspired!
I loved those shoes in the last pic so much that I spent half of yesterday surfing the net for a pair that favored them, but with just a little higher heel for this shorty.
And look what I found at Shoebuy.com!

Here's wishing you a sunny, Spring-like day!
