Now that it gets dark past 6 p.m, the promise of summer is creeping in sweetly and quietly. The Birkenstock-clad ladies on the streets, the sun-filled alleys, the flowers greeting me with a familiar perfumed whiff on the corner, it's all very much to my satisfaction. This summer's styles are definitely to my liking as well - all casual stripes, cool denim and earthy tones. Sounds too good to be true? Just take a look at Madewell's very promising summer campaign.

Note to self: must hem that gingham skirt I already own. Must update my plaid game for spring. Must look for something in blush tones. Everything else, just like daylight savings, will align accordingly.
