Red Velvet Cupcake Batter with Captain Crunch


Holy Moly.  Where have I been?

Today I discovered my new crush and it has nothing to do with clothes…  www.yelp.com/biz/yogurtland-scottsdale

So this amazing blend of mash-up options, including the special Spring Training flavor, got me thinking; Spring is HERE*

*…Well Almost

Especially in warmer climates, as the stores bust out the spring colors and florals, its tempting to think oh hey time to go all spring fever up in here… its the last day of February peoples, not so fast!  Luckily one of my FroYo partners in crime was wearing a perfect blend of spring and winter, and a teaching moment was born four hefty spoonfuls into Red Velvet Cupcake Batter with Captain Crunch.

 

 

 

 

 

So the theme here is mixing the new fun and flirty prints and fabrics currently in the stores with darker, heavier, winter touches to keep them seasonally appropriate and double dip-able.

She did this with  a new fun floral Forever 21 (I know because I immediately copied it) but instead of playing the spring side with light shoes and work appropriate cover-up, she went heavier and pulled the gray from the silver piping trim.  Wearing this again in the middle of spring, maybe a sheer sleeve jacket with a belt and BOOM… you have a completely different look.

The moral here being, dont be afraid to start pulling out the spring looks if the weather supports it, but get more milage from the ‘fit by pairing it with winter touches this round.

 

…..Also, FroYo can’t be thatttt bad for you can it?
