Spring is on its way, we're hoping...

Snow is falling and falling and falling, and we are layering and layering and layering.
It's getting quite repetitive and everyone is ready for sunshine, and tanned skin. After a season has been around for a while, and you've done everything in accordance to entertainment that it has to offer, you start imagining all the more fun you'd be having if it was a different season. Today it would be great if it was spring, you could spend the afternoon splashing in puddles, wearing your favourite dress and rain coat, going umbrella shopping and taking pictures of the surrounding world about to burst with colour. In preparation for the upcoming months, it would be nice to make a spring bucket list to get us all in a brighter mood and wash away the winter blues, and remember the bright and colourful days to come. With the help of Fashion Arts students we've created 10 things that you can buy, do, create or look forward to this spring! Click on the number icon for more information on that point!
