Hi Gorgeous!!! 
Spring is definitely here, and if you couldn't tell by the warmer weather, you can definitely tell by how many people are sniffling. Where I live, we have had a few warm days where you can comfortably wear a dress or shorts. Right now though, it's that in between chill. It's chilly enough you could pull out some of those sweaters from fall but you really don't want to. I caved in this past weekend and pulled out two sweaters that are lightweight. I am having a hard time right now finding things to wear in the morning. I can't decide if I want to wear a button down because it is chilly or wear a tank top with a cardigan. It may be sign that I want summer here, but it also may be a sign I need to clean out my closet and maybe add a few additions.
In a couple weeks, we are heading off to Florida for a family vacation. Luckily I will be in Florida for a week and a half. So I was going through some clothes I would want to bring for that, and noticed I'm short a swim suit (I got rid of a few that have been hanging around since high school). Here are the swimsuits I am in love with this year:
