Hurray! Let the forest nymphs and artsy chicks rejoice… Spring is here!

Urban Outfitters equestrian sweater or Starling’s horse hoodie are perfect tops for a day at the stables. Or find your mare (I mean mate) while dazzling in this Development horse print dress.
If you need just a little horse sense, then opt for Gara Daniells horse charm bracelet. Robin Rotenier’s running horse and horseshoe cufflinks will win you a blue ribbon, as a Father Day’s gift. Roberto Cavalli’s patent horse buckle belt will charm the pants off any philly.

I find inspiration in “The Wind in the Willows” with Marc Jacobs’ Rana pouch in fun spring colors. It’s a leather pouch with a beautiful frog embellishment on the front. Hable Construction’s felt appliqué pillows have a friendly frog hopping its way onto your couch.
