Spring Fever

Spring Fever is officially beginning to set in. With longer days, the clock change around the corner, and this week of warmer weather, I cannot help but daydream of sun, green trees, and summer a few months away.

It has certainly been a mild winter, so while I cannot complain in that regards, I am ready to ditch the wool sweaters and heavy coats in exchange for light jackets and cotton sweaters....and certainly brighter colors!

Depending on where you are located, spring is definitely about layering- a jacket is necessary in the morning but by the time the afternoon sun rolls around you are rolling up your sleeves...especially as we get into the later months of the season. I used the warmer weather here as an excuse to break out some brighter colors and lighten the mood around town.

It is certainly not time for linen or thin cotton fabrics, yet. With that in mind, I pulled a sport shirt that is crafted from a cotton/cashmere blend so it soft to the skin yet slightly heavier than traditional cotton. I paired it with go-to chinos. Note the use of cream instead of stark white...are you an avid believer in the no white before memorial day rule?

The center of this outfit was my Stubbs &  Wootton slippers. They make quite the statement and are such a classic style from the Palm Beach brand. I finished the look with a bracelet to tie back into the red of the shoes, a preppy belt, and simple aviators.

Spring Footwear with Stubbs & Wootton

As winter slowly says goodbye and spring moves in, it is time to start breaking out spring footwear. While I am one to wear loafers and drivers throughout the winter without socks, once the weather turns warm it is almost a given that I will be running around town in loafers on a daily basis. 

Since the slush is gone from the streets, I cannot wait to wear a pair of Stubbs & Wootton. If you are not familiar with the brand, they are renowned for their needlepoint, preppy slippers and are based out of Palm Beach. Their collections offer both classical and whimsical styles that are perfect to get into the spring and summer mode- the perfect time to add a little fun to your look!

I am waiting for the perfect occasion to sport my Persian Rug Slippers. Paired with a solid pant and top, these slippers are a great way to add a fun, whimsical touch to any outfit. Dressed up or dressed down, the Stubb is an effortless, easy piece of footwear to throw on. 

Stubbs has a myriad of styles that I love and that will be perfect for sporting during the spring and summer seasons. Whether you pick a classic, solid pair or a fun, nautical pair with anchors to pair with white pants, you really cannot go wrong! Here are a few of my favorite styles:

If there's one brand that comes to mind when I think of preppy footwear, it is Stubbs & Wootton. The classic handmade slippers and needlepoint loafers are the epitome of the Palm Beach lifestyle. Thats why they are one of my favorite things this week. Im dying to get a pair, but with so many choices how does one pick which pair to get?
