According to the calendar — not Mother Nature — spring is just 13 days away. So with the hopes that it will continue the warming up trend, I started looking around for clothing inspiration for all the CMP clients on the calendar …

… and found that Jessica at The Creative Mama had already gotten a head start on me! Check out her selections here.

I also came across this site — The Fashionable Housewife and its sister site for young women.

And … via CollegeFashion.net, I’m partial to outfit #4 for senior girls.

Guys, don’t feel too left out … there just aren’t any guy fashion sites that I’ve come across! I’ll work on that for the next inspiration post!

PS … there’s still time to enter the Thank You Giveaway — this will be the last giveaway for 2010, so if you want a chance to win a session with CMP, be sure to enter by Sunday at midnight!

This week’s featured coordinated family outfits were put together by one of my inspirations — Michele Anderson of Pinkletoes Photography. I think she did an awesome job once again (last week’s featured coordinated outfits were put together by her as well). Three simple colors that’ll wow your holiday portraits!

Needless to say … I’ve already added that coat and scarf to my wish list if anyone is feeling generous!

Tonight (as well as next Monday) I’ll be featuring coordinated family outfits put together by one of my inspirations — Michele Anderson of Pinkletoes Photography. I think she did an awesome job … I’m almost tempted to buy the mom’s scarf for myself!

I thought I’d change it up this week and feature some accessories for the females — perfect for teens and moms. I went out to my favorite website — Etsy.com — and searched for some colorful jewels …

At Earrings by Karen, check out the Queens Color Bracelet and the Queens Country Home Necklace — as well as all the other gorgeous jewels listed in her shop.

At EidelJewelry’s Etsy store, check out the Lily of the Valley pendant — this of course is a double favorite since it is made up of jewels in my business colors!

At Inner Diameter’s Etsy shop, check out the Unakite or Adverturine pendants — very unique!

At PixieStyleLab, check out the spun wire silver wrapped turquoise earrings

Dalim has a BOGO sale going on — personally, I love the Denmark Earrings in Red and the France Earrings in Red.

At Infinity Jewelry Club, there’s a variety of gems and freshwater pearl accessories to choose from. While located in Thailand, the prices and shipping are quite reasonable.

Ticklebean has an adorable flower garden cuff that is made to order …

… and at Peaches4me, check out the Angelica Ring!

Tonight’s yet another sampling of coordinating outfits for both younger and older siblings from The Childrens Place — these are all from the holiday section of the website which is full of polka dots, plaids, argyles, and stripes this holiday season!

Starting with the little brother …
