Days of Spring
11 years ago by
In case you haven’t looked up in a while (maybe because you were checking how many Instagram likes you got in the last two minutes), the trees are blossoming… it’s spring! Nothing makes you feel like you’re in love with a city more than the blossoming of it — quite literally the trees flourishing everywhere…
It’s funny how the warm weather and bright florals popping up actually makes me want to wear white. All white. Like never before. And what dreamier setting than the cinematic backdrop of the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom? You feel this bit of magic, that very moment when the breeze hits and flowers fly in the wind.
Only, when the weather is so perfect, all white can be problematic…
- Don’t sit on the grass. Take your shoes off, enjoy nature and the fresh air! But, whatever you do, don’t let the temptation of that inviting patch of soft grass lure you in. Bring a picnic rug.
- Don’t expect to eat. Hungry but wearing an all-white look? Fuhgeddaboutit. Say no to the guac, or BYO apron.
- Leave fun in the past. Carefree and happy? More like cautious and paranoid. One smudge might ruin the look.
OR just enjoy the white for those few moments and then embrace a bit of filth because it’s sunny and who cares about a bit of dirt? There’s always Tide pens and good dry cleaners…

Beautiful sentiments! I’ve been loving white too and I keep oscillating between embracing the filth and being super cautious :)
Warm Regards,

Ces photos sont magnifiques! <3
J'adore le printemps en fleurs et m'habiller de couleurs nudes aussi!!! C'est sûr, on fait plus attention à ne pas se tâcher mais comme tu le dis, ça se lave! Il ne faut pas s'empêcher de vivre parce qu'on aime porter du blanc! :)
Bonne soirée

I’ll have to avoid white then. I’m always snacking so… But that dress is so beautiful!!!

Si si on a remarqué que le printemps était arrivé, même de l’autre côté de l’Atlantique ^^ les photos sont super en tout cas, j’adore le sac jaune !

Such beautiful photos! Phew, I’m one of those lucky people who can pain the room and come out with not a speck of pain on my clothes :) I’m embracing white! :)

Moi aussi j’aime le blanc. Ca me vient de ma mère je pense. C’est tellement élégant à porter lorsqu’il fait beau. La pureté même!

Beautiful pics!
Point de vue masculin : un beau jean blanc, c’est toujours plus chic légèrement crade, tout propre ça fait coiffeur low-cost. Evidemment la frontière propre/sale est ténue, mais avec un peu d’expérience et de feeling, on y arrive.
Alors vivez, mangez et ne craignez pas la tâche.
I read this wearing a bright white tank and bright white high top vans, impatiently awaiting the arrival of a brand new pair of bright white jeans. Which is all to say: girl, I feel you.

Magnifiques ces arbres en fleurs!
Rien ne peut égaler la beauté de la création!
L’être humain peut aussi créer de belles choses parfois, en témoignent ces espadrilles!

C’est le printemps et la nature se réveille … J’adore cette période de l’année où progressivement on laisse les vêtements chauds dans l’armoire au profit des tenues plus légères ! Le blanc est une couleur qui va tellement bien avec cette saison!

I totally agree! I love this time of year, especially since all the flowers start blooming. P.S. I am loving the pictures too.

J’aime beaucoup les photographies et le texte ! Ça donne envie de se rouler dans l’herbe…
I love white but could most definitely relate to the above paranoia……
Such lovely photos! Spring is my favourite season of all time. x

I bought the pefect white linen dress in France and always get compliments when I wear it
Lovely post, I love first days of spring…
