Finally we welcome a new season, a renewal from the dreary, cold, never-ending Winter. We’ve all slogged through, not thinking we could make it, but alas, we have! I think that means we all deserve to treat ourselves. Hopefully you have continued making progress on your goals and intentions this year too! I know I have and I think because of that and the new season, AND the ending of a first year of college, I may just need to treat myself to some materialistic goods. I never do (ever), I just hate spending money, even when I like something, even if I have a gift card!
So maybe if I share some fun Spring finds (and you share some of yours in the comments), I may be inspired to actually make the commitment, that hard decision, and finally buy something 😉 Maybe… So here are some 5 fun things to livin’ up your Spring!
I am so obsessed with rompers and jumpsuits! After the two I bought in November, I have been lusting over so many more! I still don’t own a romper, but totally want to take the plunge with one!
There is nothing not to love with a Spring maxi! I love the solid cherry color of this one. So simple, sexy, and chic!
I adore sunglasses and my beloved aviators have a crack in them. Plus they are super old. I think I may be in need of a new pair 😉
Isn’t this pretty? I love all the colors! A nice little pop to livin’ up a more subtle outfit! I like a little bit of gold too. I actually think I like gold things more than silver.
DROID Turbo Sapphire Blue by Motorola
I don’t know about you, but I’m in need of a new phone. I’ve had my DROID Razr Maxx HD for a few years now and it’s dying..if not dead already. Motorola has a new DRIOD on the market with a 48-hour battery life (which is my #1 want in any phone! I am always looking for the best and longest battery life, which this one has!) This new DROID Turbo has amazing speed, performance, sharp display, a beautiful sleek design and color like no other on the market. It’s also super durable, scratch, and water resistant, all while being smooth to the touch and light weight. I love a big-screened phone and I am a DROID girl (I’ve never had anything different!), so I may just have my eye on this one 😉 It also has all new Moto Voice, Assist, and Display which you can personalize to your needs. I only use my phone for blogging, social media, and the internet, so personalization and function is what I need! (I hate texting…and do not text!)
So tell me:
+ What’s on your radar for this Spring?
+ Rompers, jumpsuits, maxis? Yes to all three! My favorite clothes…besides workout clothes and sweats 😉

Fun finds! Especially love the sunglasses and the bracelet =)
I need some new running gear for the spring – I don’t like shopping or spending money (ha!), but sometimes a girl needs to treat herself. I will definitely be treating myself to a spring manicure soon! My fav spring splurge.

I’ve gotta do something…..it’s just going to be a tough decision!
The thing about living in Central Florida is that you never really have Spring. But I do remember the feelings of Spring. Thanks for the inspiration. Thanks, too, for linking up and sharing with us at Funtastic Friday. Hope you can make it again this week.

Hey, I’d be fine with that!
These are so pretty especially that bracelet! Thanks for sharing your favorites at Inspire Me Mondays!

It is! Thanks Brandi!
You should totally get a romper and treat yourself with at least one spring item. I just invested in a new pair of sunglasses after my last one got totally warped when I left in the car with 100+ degree weather last year.

Maybe 😉
O my gosh! That’s terrible!
Like you, I am completely obsessed with rompers and long dresses and I have a few. Lately I have started sewing so I am lucky to be able to create (or at least try to…) my own garments ;-).
I love the products you show here, very spring looking indeed!

That’s so awesome! I wish I knew how to sew! I know NOTHING!
I love maxi dresses! They are my thing during the spring. I struggle with sunglasses! I love them & I want to protect my eyes but I can’t find any to fit my face.
Leslie recently posted…Silent Sunday
Yea! They are my thing too 😉
It can be a struggle to find the perfect fit!
If I were some 20+ years younger….sigh. Thanks for sharing at Thursday Favorite Things!
All that’s Jas recently posted…Andrea’s Pan-Seared Tilapia
There are maxis for everyone!
Another great post, Rebecca! That red maxi dress is beautiful – great choice! I’m on the look out for some sunglasses myself too – I’ve seen some beautiful Miu Miu ones that I have my eyes on, so I really ought to start saving!!!!
Harriet Emily recently posted…AUBERGINE & SWEET POTATO KATSU CURRY
There are just a ton of cute Spring/Summer things I’ve been seeing….but I know I probably will chicken out and just go with what I have!
I loved reading this. I actually just wrote 2 posts about spring and my favorite things about it and so I was so excited when I found your post and there are now 5 more things I can add to my list of things I love about spring. Thanks for inspiring me.
Lexi recently posted…Why It’s Important For Women To Say No
Haha, Spring is just such a nice welcome!
Loving the romper and maxi dress! I totally can’t pull of rompers though so I’ll stick to my maxi dresses and long skirts 🙂 Happy Spring!
Well maxis always work 😉
I love the floral romper! It’s so pretty. I like the maxi dress, too, but I am so short that I can’t wear them! LOL!
Kate recently posted…Friday Favorites: DIY Wall Decor
Yes you can! I’m 5’4! Just wear heels, or tie up the bottom in a side knot!
Ahhh I am so jealous of all these cute spring outfits haha! I’m definitely a maxi girl but I haven’t even attempted to wear rompers as I feel like I’m too long/tall to pull it off.
Kristy @ Southern In Law recently posted…What Do YOU Want to See on Southern In-Law?
How about jumpsuits?
LOVE that romper. I need a few of those in my closet.

Time for some shopping 😉
hahaha, I dislike maxis, rompers and jumpsuits (short torso and maxis just look like shapeless sacks on me–I found one made of reallyyyy soft material for $1 and turned it into an infinity scarf), but am so happy that it’s finally warmer again! Yay for sunshine! 😀
Hahahahahahaha! I don’t see you as a dress girl anyway! (Not a bad thing!) XOXO
It definitely doesn’t happen often! 😛
Big YES to maxi dresses, not so much jumpsuits and rompers…I have a really short torso and they tend to fit me weird 😉 I would LOVE a pair of over-sized coach sun glasses though!!
This spring I’ve got my eye on cute summery dresses, and maybe a new bag. But I’m like you – I tend to not spend a lot of money on material things! Mostly food 😉
Ariana recently posted…Healthy Snack Attack
Jumpsuits are awesome though! Took me forever to finally actually try one, but then I fell in love!
Girl yes! Money may just happen to go to all the lovely produce and cookbooks I have my eyes on 😉
THE ROMPER! I just got a little more interested in fashion ….. He He He… So I am totally into new and different styles I wouldn’t normally wear!
GiGi Eats recently posted…Getting Stuffed With Brad Gouthro
Haha, me too 😉 I do so need a romper though!
So on top of baking we also need to go shopping together? Uh YES!! I’m obsessed with rompers! However Maxi dresses do get in the way of my life sometimes so I prefer midi or just knee length or above the knee dresses/skirts. The warmer weather definitely has brightened my spirit tenfold and I can feel it has warmed your already sunny one as well! Much love!
Ana Valentin recently posted…Preparing For Finals
Haha, my shopping consists of one miraculous day where you don’t have to drag me around the store! Otherwise, I sometimes will take my chances online. Requardless, I love the look of clothes….but hate shopping! Haha!
Haha, Ana 🙂 XOXO
I’ll just become your personal shopper, and you my recipe/ food prepper when I’m shopping for you ;D
Ana Valentin recently posted…Preparing For Finals
That could work 😉
Maxi dress and maxi skirts are my new favorite thing. This spring I was hoping to capture the whole boho look. 🙂 I love that bracelet it’s so pretty.
Haha, totally 😉 I forgot, maxi skirts too are the best! Haha, love them all!
I live in maxi dresses in the warmer weather – they are so comfy! That bracelet is gorgeous too…I may have to check it out!

You couldn’t get more easy, beautiful, and comfy!
You hate texting?! You are the only college student I’ve ever met that doesn’t like to text. Bravo!!
Love that maxi dress and those glasses, they scream summer. I love maxi’s in the summer, they’re a no-brainer. I love rompers too, but only on youngsters, people in their 50s, don’t, just please don’t
I don’t text. It is the WORST! Omg! Haha!
Yea…..rompers are more for 35 and younger, haha, but I think jumpsuits can work for older!
These are great picks! I’ve already picked up a couple of rompers, and I plan to pretty much live in maxi dresses, the absolute comfiest things to wear!
Bree recently posted…Spring and the Cherry Blossoms
I really do need to get a romper!
Those outfits are super cute… if you are tall and slim 😉 I am short and stout! Ha!
rachel recently posted…Weekly Training Plan and the Taper
I’m short! But they can totally work and DO!
I’m not one for rompers or jumpsuits, but I love maxi dresses! I’ve even figured out a couple of sophisticated ways to style them so that I can make them work for the office. I know that capris were declared “out” at some point last year in favor of long shorts but I’m still a fan. They’re great for spring.
According to my husband (who works in technology) the Droid Turbo is a “quite good” phone, and has good battery life.
Rachel recently posted…Cat(s) Vs. Mouse: Vox Box Review
Maxis are always the best 😉
That’s good to know! Seriously, battery life is my #1!
That romper is so adorable. Now I want it too!! And the maxi dress is super cute too – looks really soft and comfy. I am so excited and happy Spring is finally here! I haven’t had time to shop yet to see what I want to treat myself to just yet!
I can’t wait to get some new ones and wear all the pretty things I have! They need to finally see the sun again!
Oooh – that bracelet – that is adorbs!
Don’t you just love the colors!?
48 hour battery life, girl sign me up! I feel like i’m constantly charging my phone. Don’t get me started on these maix dresses, oh I could just live in them!! Super cute
Sam @ PancakeWarriors recently posted…Mother’s Day | Best Mom Ever
I know! The Droid’s always have the best! That’s why I had gotten the Droid Razr Maxx when it came out! I only care about battery life!
Me and you both 😉 They are just so pretty, comfy, and just…awesome!
Love all your spring finds…so cute!!!
Thanks Lisa!
All of these clothes are so cute, I haven’t done any spring shopping for myself yet!!

Still early in the season 😉
I love the maxi! so bright and fun.

Totally!
Hmm, is there a 4th option? 🙂 I’m a simple sundress kind of gal.

Haha! Any dress! I love dresses!
The sunglasses and bracelet for me please!
Christine (The Raw Project) recently posted…Weekend List with More Kicky Avocado
They are so pretty 🙂
I honestly love rompers but kind of feel silly wearing them, so I buy cute tie dye and other bright colored ones for my girls! You are kind of making me want one for myself though 🙂 Once the shopping beast is awakened in me it’s unstoppable! I also love aviator sunglasses but they never quite fit right on me I’ve found. Maxis are definitely a staple, I love strappy-back maxis 🙂
Michele @ paleorunningmomma recently posted…10 Thoughts on Yoga for Runners
Haha, living through you’re girls 😉
Maxis are just so beautiful! I think they can work on anyone! And if you’re shorter like me, wear heels or tie it up!
It’s hard to find the right pair of sunglasses. I always fall in love, but then after wearing them find out they don’t fit right or hurt behind my ears!
I am determined to try out one of those cute short jumpers this year. I was eyeing them last season, but just didn’t take the plunge. This year I’m in! 🙂
Heather @ FITaspire recently posted…Estes Park – Colorado Weekend Getaway
I know! Since I love the look of jumpsuits on me, a romper has to work!
I LOVE the look of that romper!! Now if only I could pull that off 😉 haha
I think you can 😉
I’ll take the romper and sunglasses pretty please!!
Katie @ Mom to Mom Nutrition recently posted…Fruit and Vegetable Snack Bars
Haha, me too 😉
I do like rompers! I have a few that I guess I should dig out for summer. I rarely spend money on clothes but when I do, it’s normally workout clothes.
Emily @My Healthyish Life recently posted…My Balance Is Not Your Balance
Ah, okay, I MUST buy a romper this season! I know right! I buy clothes maybe once a year! Haha!
I am in love with Maxi dresses… I’m afraid of rompers. I think I’d look silly in them.
Heather @ The Nerdy Fox recently posted…Guest Post: How to Be a Kick-Ass Editor
Me too….but I really want to try harder at finding one!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the maxi dresses. The fact that you can wear them to the beach and dress them up for the night is a plus in my book. Ill have to check that phone out. 48 hour battery life, score!
I would live in maxis! Since I’m 5’4 though, I either need to wear heels or I like to tie a single side knot on the bottom!
That bracelet is amazing and spring and summer clothes are the best way to get into Spring! I can not pull off a romper my torso is too long it makes me sad, But I love them on other people!
Renee @ Bendiful Blog recently posted…Every Decision Has Challenges
I have a super long torso too! But I LOVE jumpsuits…so I still need to give the romper a try 😉
