I loved Angie's recent blog post about red shoes for Spring but since I have neither Spring nor red shoes (yet!), I had to improvise.

My outfit started with my black pencil skirt and simple black sleeveless knit top. To add elements that hint at Spring, I chose semi-opaque tights rather than opaque tights and topped my outfit with my bronze open weave hi-lo drapey cardigan. The open weave of the cardigan shows my arms and gives the dark colour palette outfit a bit of "lightness" for Spring.

I don't have red shoes but I do have red booties, so popped those on and then chose my red/animal print clutch, red specs and red lipstick to punch the outfit up a bit more.

Thoughts? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.
