thistle-and-clover-for-bb-291x3001. Ace & Jig Studio Shift DressWarm enough for the “lion” start of March (simply throw on some fleecy tights, stacked boots, and a cardi), but also perfect for the lamb-like days ahead (trade in those tights, boots and cardi for a jean jacket, ballet flats, and bare legs–freshly buffed with Goldies sun scrub). $237 at Thistle & Clover

2. Goldies Winter Sun Scrub: You may be ready for spring, but are your legs? This scrub combines walnut shell powder for a deep exfoliation, coconut soap for a moisturizing lather, the astringent toning of basil, and anise essential oils. $24 at Thistle & Clover

A good secret with this brand is that it’s almost indestructible. Wash it in the sink and hang dry–it will look great every time. $54 at Goldy + Mac

4.  Downtown Vegan Moto Jacket: An update on your basic spring jacket, this Vegan Moto Jacket adds a bit of tough rocker edge to your wardrobe but still feels soft to the touch. You won’t believe it’s vegan! To make the look more delicate, add one of this season’s bright scarves in a light airy fabric. You will also notice the beautiful lining to keep you extra warm when you are all zipped up. $88 at Goldy + Mac

Oiled in beeswax and mineral oil for a super smooth finish, this is a stylish addition to any kitchen. $145 at Home of the Brave

6. Job & Boss Crossbody Bag: This all-leather bag is the perfect action plan for a spring clean—it’s a great reminder that you shouldn’t be lugging around a bag full of crap. $156 at Wolves Within

    Thanks for this — good to know about all of these places, but please note that Goldy and Mac is actually in GreenPORT, not Greenpoint.
