Spring and summer are fast approaching which means bare legs and shoulders and, if you are anything like me, lots of sunblock.

Here's some dresses from MyShape that make me squeak with anticipation:

Frye Women's Engineer12R $199 from Shoes.com

I am certainly no biker chick and I've never driven a train/been good at physics, but I really want a pair of these boots. I think it's the small piece of me that still longs for the grunge 90's with the babydoll dresses, backpack purses and flannel shirts tied at the waist.

Sh-Booties?

Shoes? Nope. Boots? Not exactly. Either way, I'm on the prowl for a pair.

Frye Lisa Oxford Pump $158 from Shopbop.com; Nine West Naso $112.95 from Zappos (they do have them in black, but that gray is scrumptious!); Gentle Souls Janover $298.95 from Zappos; Etienne Aigner Nada only $69! from Piperlime

Frye Women's Lisa Shorty $249 from Shoes.com; Connie Women's Greta only $59.99 from Shoes.com; Farylrobin 'Vindica' Ankle Boot $174.95 from Nordstrom (temporarily out of stock); AROUND by Carvela (also come in black) £80 from Kurt Geiger

Furry Nightmare

We've got all kinds of naked protests that are anti-fur and I'm about to strip and join them after seeing these abominations:

Who, I ask, would look good in this hat and scarf combo by Echo?? It's the visual equivalent of tarring and furry-ing.

Considering the trend for the season is leaning toward very tailored looks, this comes way out of left field.

Maybe I'm being a bit too mean on this one, but I just don't see how anyone could make this look good.

Well maybe except these guys:

If you severly disagree with me, the hat is $42 and the scarf is $68, from Nordstrom.

From Urban Outfitters, the Lux Bubblegum Dress, is a perfect transitional dress for summer/fall. Pair it with some wedges and a black popover, or wear it with some strappy sandals and bare shoulders...either way, it's super cute! $58 from Urban Outfitters (via Catwalk Queen)

"I dole out justice with the tip of my boot..."

I've been having visions lately of walking out of my house in the morning and hearing frost crunch under my feet and seeing each puff of breath. Oh, how much I love winter. Although it's traditionally the season of bulky sweaters, dry skin and chapped lips, it's still my absolutely favorite season.

With the nearness of the chilly season, in addition to hunting for the perfect jacket, I also need a solid but sexy pair of boots to get me through snowflakes. As it seems to go for most every post, first there's my dream choices:
