Aggghh it’s finally March and THE BEGINNING OF SPRING! What comes to mind when you hear the word spring? I imagine flowers, green grass, spring cleaning and the start of my own personal “bikini body ready” routine! Yep, shapeless tunics won’t cut it. I’m going to have to give in and show some skin.
