splurge vs. steal . . . spring picnic

spring is just around the corner!  even though temperatures here are still on the brink of freezing, i suddenly have an uncontrollable urge to pack up all my sweaters and wool coats and fill my closet with lighter clothes that give me that breezy, not-a-care-in-the-world look.  so, in honor of the change of seasons, i give you two looks - one affordable and one... um, not so affordable - inspired by a picnic in the park on the perfect spring day.
