I absolutely loved the mint green color when I saw this sweater at Banana Republic. The pastel color reminds me of Spring.

We had an enjoyable trip to Asheville. On our way home, we took a short ride onto the Blue Ridge Parkway. The Parkway closes portions due to snow and ice – although there was no snow or ice where we were, the higher elevations still have too much for safe travels. We were only allowed a short, seven mile ride and then returned to the interstate.

I am looking forward to Spring!! The temp was a little cooler when we were in Asheville so I had to wear winter-like clothes. In NC, we can have 40 degree days followed by 70 degree days, and then back to the 40s…we have to learn the skill of dressing in light layers. I found more mint sweaters that will be perfect for transitioning to Spring. The first lightweight sweater below would be great to wear over a simple t-shirt.

I bought the necklace after the holidays during a 60% off the reduced price sale at Loft. Above is a beautiful  statement necklace that is available at Loft that will look nice with a variety of the Spring fashions.
