When the weather starts to thaw right before Spring, it’s time to start having fun with brights. Pretty sweater dresses, yellow shoes and orange tights say you love life and aren’t scared to show it. Look, even if you don’t love life, you can pull these off with charm.

Dress
A Marimekko sweater dress is a go-to for the season of endless work and parties. In purple with green and black, or a simple grey and cream, this dress is beautiful and soft.

Transformation is a mechanism that came to mind. When Steir first painted directly on gallery walls in 1975, she shattered the boundary between artwork and spectator, insisting that immersion is the purest form of perception.
