Members of the Iraqi security forces chant slogans during preparations to launch an offensive on the Islamic State-controlled al-Alam town, in Al Hadidiya, south of Tikrit March 6, 2015. The army, joined by thousands of Shi'ite militiamen backed and advised by Iran, is five days into an advance on Saddam's home city of Tikrit, by far the biggest target yet in a campaign to roll back last year's advance by Islamic State fighters. Tikrit is the first major city that Iraq's forces have attempted to recapture from Islamic State in northern Iraq, and the government hopes the campaign will reverse the momentum that saw the fighters sweep across the north last year.

Sure, you and those cozy sweaterdresses and turtlenecks have been through a lot together (read: ice storms and consecutive too-cold-too-go-outside-days), but that relationship is over. Time to move on to something happier — and less sad and constricting. Time for pretty spring dresses. While you may have a few from last year hiding in the back of your closet, there's nothing like kicking off the season with a brand new frock. Remember, though: That doesn't mean dropping your entire clothing allowance on a designer find. There's a lot to check off your spring shopping list, so your best bet is to first reinvigorate your wardrobe with an affordable option. Ahead, we're highlighting the best spring dresses under $100. Click through to find the go-to that will officially get you out of that winter rut.
