Happy Monday, Happy Easter and Happy Passover!

If you celebrated one (or both) of these holidays this past weekend, I hope you enjoyed the family time and of course, all of the incredible food. I always eat way too much at family dinners, because everything is too delicious to pass up. It’s okay, it just means salad for lunch all week. Am I right?

Salad is my typical lunch of choice anyway. I keep mine interesting and filling, by including a range of toppings (cheese, avocado, roasted peppers, chick peas, quinoa, etc) and always making my own vinaigrette. It’s amazing what a difference a little bit of thought can make, especially once we start seeing seasonal produce hit the shelves.

I haven’t noticed a lot of seasonal produce just yet, but I’m sure it won’t be long before I do. After all, it’s April already!

In addition to fresh produce, at this time of year, I also like to reintroduce ‘spring’ into my closet. I’ve put away a lot of my bulky clothing, and brought out my lighter weight pieces.

I was really excited to bring my utility vest back into the front of my closet and have already worn it a few times in the last couple of weeks. It’s fun to dress it up, but I most often pair it with jeans and a tee, just like I did the other day.

    That last picture is pure perfection. I love sassy pictures that really show personality. I pulled out my light weight vests too and boy have they been getting some action. I missed them dearly.

    So cute! I still don’t own a utility vest, and I think it is time I changed that…

    Yay for salad lunches!!
    I love the light layers here paired with pastel accents. What a lovely vest! I saw the exact same one at Old Navy a while back and for the life of me I can’t remember why I skipped over it. It looks amazing on you!

    I’m so with you on salads all week- I think I ate my body weight in Bunny Bark this weekend. Love the army green paired with the blush pink clutch!

    I love a good salad! Ever since I discovered how easy it is to make a homemade dressing, I never buy one from the store. You look so pretty in these photos. Love the clutch.

      Thanks! And yes, I always have fun shooting. I blog for fun, so if I wasn’t enjoying myself, something would be wrong, right? 🙂

    I’m almost embarrassed by the amount of cheesy potatoes and pie I ate last weekend! However, I ended up getting sick the last few days, and barely touched any food, so it all evened out. Haha. That said, I’m looking forward to seasonal produce too!
