{outfit photos by jen, rainbow pic by me}

as I’m sure you’ve seen on my fb page, we just so happened to catch some crazy weather patterns at our last outfit shoot.  sunshine turned dark clouds, rainbow, pouring rain, hail, and back to beautiful sun.  pretty fitting that since I was wearing quite a rainbow-esq colour combo! 

i don’t know about you, but i’ve sure caught the shopping bug.  seems like my online shopping carts are constantly full in anticipation for spring.  my wishlist keeps growing, but funds remain the same.  isn’t that always the way?  that we want to spend more when we have less.  le sigh, when will i learn?

oberhofer – i could go

    Cute beachy photos, Alicia! It was so exciting when that double rainbow appeared. And I hear you on the online shopping carts… I keep adding things but cannot purchase 🙁

    Love the bright green with the stripes! You look gorgeous! No rainbows for us here, we have snow and lots of it. No rain!

  • Kelly February 28, 2012 at 10:09 pm

    gorgeous outfit! I love everything about it. And I, too, have caught the shopping bug…. It's bad for my budget. 😛

  • GIRL AND CLOSET February 28, 2012 at 10:10 pm

    That's some kind of weather, and yay love that you got a picture of the rainbow!! And swoon, this look is beautiful. I want to copy it from head to toe!! Smooches! V

  • Virginie February 28, 2012 at 11:11 pm

    That is SO beautiful! I love the outfit too fo course and your hair is just always so fabulously gorgeous.

    I'm a bit jealous of your weather, as crazy as it might be!

    As for shopping: I'm resorting to thrifting so that my Spring budget doesn't sky rocket!!

  • Maria Camila February 29, 2012 at 12:14 am

    Adorable outfit! I really love the necklace & photos. As for the shopping problems, we have the same issue!

  • Cee February 29, 2012 at 12:37 am

    I am so right there with you, my friend… All of my online baskets are full, and my bank account is empty 🙁 It's a good (or bad, depending on how you look at it) thing that Mastercard always has money.

    I love the combination of your emerald top with Jen's red necklace. And that rainbow is really spectacular!

    You're one of the few people who could throw together red and green and look only chic, not Christmassy! I love this look pally, this is such a great example of colour blocking but done in a really discrete way, and in a much fresher way than I've seen as of late. That double rainbow is unreal! So sad I missed it!

    So cute! Love the close up photo of you, you have the prettiest hair! And yesss, gah, my spring wishlist keeps growing and growing (and yes, I also add things to online carts and don't check out… currently 3 items in my J Crew cart wishing they could be bought!) Sigh!

  • amuseume February 29, 2012 at 3:19 am

    Lovely use of colours! The yellow flats are a great touch of spring, how refreshing after today's rain. This is a great example of put-together-casual that goes far beyond spandex and a hoodie with uggs that's so common in Vancouver!

    You look stunning! i love the stripes & colors 🙂

  • Leonie February 29, 2012 at 5:24 am

    Hahaha I can totally relate to that, I think I have filled about 4 or 5 shopping carts today. "Luckily" (not at all!) I need a credit card for these purchases and I don't own one… The only option I have is asking the bf to pay it for me, but obviously he won't enable my shopping "addiction" (as if…) Oh well!

    About your outfit… I love it! All these colors are going so well together and it's amazing how it matches with those two pretty rainbows. Very lovely look!
