While we’re currently having some cold weather and snow here, spring has definitely arrived, at least on some days! I feel like wearing light colours, suits and pretty hats.

Here are some photos of great spring outfits!

I’ve shown this picture of Ann Savage before but it’s one of my all time favourite looks and would be just perfect for spring.

Gina Lollobrigida always wears great outfits.

Brigitte Bardot looking super elegant.
