It certainly looks like Spring (But does it feel like it?)

We've started daylight savings time, but Spring does not begin until the spring equinox, March 21st. Despite the miserable weather that has affected much of the country, retailers are filling their windows with Spring merchandise.

While these windows are a refreshing counterpoint to the weather outside, I wonder how long it will be before the weather outside will accommodate sleeveless dresses and shorts?

But isn't that the essence of fashion? You selling hope.
