march on forward this month by stealing the limelight, showing off some booties and getting all wrapped up with this list of picks:
bootie-licious.
like the season itself, spring footwear is a breath of fresh air. case-in-point: the chloe
wedge booties ($750). the cement-colored patent leather straps, peep-toe and pink heel give this shoe a split personality. it's city slicker meets space cowboy. with some serious attitude. available
at barneys. 100 huntington avenue. at harcourt. 617.385.3300.

big green.
the L.A.M.B. oversized clutch in glazed green ($500) is big enough for two hands. the sumptuous emerald lamb leather (how fitting) is enhanced by silvertone hardware and can be carried as a handbag or folded over for day-night flexibility. anywhere you need it, this lamb is sure to go. available
at saks fifth avenue. 800 boylston street. at fairfield. 617.262.8500.

piggy banq.
cash in on the french-asian concoctions at the new banq resto with a zucchini
and tofu steak ($19). tofu is like styrofoam with soy protein, but chef ranveer brar adds some spicy thai basil, yellow tomato coulis and chanterelle-braised rice noodles to take it from tasteless to tantalizing. 1375
washington street. at union park. 617.451.0077.

tea-luxe.
tap into the luck of the irish (even if you're not) with the nami
spa green tea body wrap ($100). the south end spot is offering discounted prices for its green-themed treatments just in time for st. patty's day. spend 60 minutes enjoying a relaxing and skin-smoothing wrap and you'll feel like you just found the end of the rainbow. available
march 1-17. 12 clarendon street. near warren. 617.267.6264.

famous fruit.
spring is all about the bold and bright. step into the limelight with the Z
square key lime martini ($9). a combo of vanilla vodka, pineapple and lime juices, this citric cocktail comes in a graham-cracker-rimmed glass for very sweet sipping. 14
JFK street. near brattle. 617.576.0101.

soothing salts.
make march the month you bring back bathtime. since you're all grown up, swap the bubbles for the carol's
daughter body aches bath salts ($18) and let the peppermint, lavender and tea tree oils play masseuse to your sore muscles. rubber ducky not included.
