 <\/p>\n

This past weekend we really got a taste of spring. Balmy temperatures, windows open and people working in their yards. For me a rite of spring is to start to transition my winter to spring\/summer wardrobe in my closet and to make sure I\u2019m pedicure ready \u2013 for those open-toed sandals I\u2019ve been more than ready to wear.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m feeling as colorful as an Easter egg in this vibrant, water-colored outfit. A patterned sleeveless blouse from JohnPaul Richard was the starting point for this look.\"\" <\/a> New it sold for around $45, and I paid $4.50 at my local Goodwill Keystone Area store.<\/p>\n

Next, brightly-hued denim (from Loft) added more of a punch. Colored denim is still in for spring and I am already picturing these with a simple black tank top and black sandals later in the season. My price at Goodwill was $6.95, but denim like this sells for $69 at the retail store.<\/p>\n

A simple jean jacket was the perfect topper for these cooler spring days. \"\" <\/a>Jean jackets are a closet necessity for me and this one from Gap has been featured in several posts and in lots of everyday outfits. For just $6.50, its cost per wear is already negligible. I love this piece!<\/p>\n

Since there were so many colors in the top, I had plenty of options for accessories. The fun, fringed purple cross body bag is from Sondra Roberts Squared.\"\" <\/a> While not a high-end brand, this bad retailed for about $75.00 \u2013 my cost? $4.97!<\/p>\n

Since I already had featured plenty of red and purple in the outfit, why not turquoise? I\u2019m a huge fan of Nine West footwear and these turquoise bejeweled cork sandals did not disappoint, especially for only $7.47!\"\" <\/a><\/p>\n

A stone and bead necklace ($3.97) and feathered and bead earrings (also $3.97) were both originally from Target. \"\" <\/a>Their colors pulled the outfit together and made me feel like a rainbow or an Eater egg.\"\" <\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s time to open those windows and change up your wardrobe! If you need some new spring pieces, be sure and visit your local Goodwill Keystone Area store for a few Easter gems!<\/p>\n

From my closet to yours,
