The In Between

These months where it is 35 degrees one day and 70 the next are the most challenging of all times.  So here are three quick hints for keeping up with the weather demands.

1.  Keep yourself warm weather ready.
     
You may have gone for weeks without shaving your legs in the winter.  Your underarms might not have been silky smooth every day.  And, your legs may have been wearing the seasons stylish crocodile look.  But, the weather is getting warmer and you need to get your body back into bare shape.

Get yourself a really good body scrub and use it is the shower every day.  Either put lotion on your skin at night or slather on the body oil.  If you use something like Jojoba oil it will dissolve into your skin instantly.  It is the closest to our natural body oil that you can get.

If you are tired of shaving those legs and underarms, consider investing in an at home laser hair remover.  Do it now because you can't use it as you start to spend more time in the sun.  I've been using the Tria all winter and can really see the difference!!

2.  Layer, layer, layer
     
I just can't emphasize this one enough.  Start with a cute, sleeveless top.  Put on a lightweight sweater and top it off with a trench or other cute jacket.  Finally, tie a light weight scarf to your bag.    

You will be ready for anything from sitting outside where the breeze makes it a little nippy to going into an overheated restaurant.

3.  Break out your flip flops
     
It might still be a little chilly but I'm sure your feet are dying to be out in the air after being cooped up all winter.  Throw a little pair of flip flops on and carry the oh so popular, travel flats with you.  If  your toes get a little frost bite, switch out your flip flops for your stylish flats.  You are good to go no matter what the temp.  Just make sure your feet have had their spring treatment to remove all the dead skin from winter!


Don't get caught in temperature inappropriate clothing during the in-between season!!
