It's the first day of spring! Even though it's in the high 40's here in New York, the sun is shining, the birds are singing and the wind is blowing our curtains just enough to make us feel like we're living in a Downy commercial. In honor of this day that makes Scanner Emily the happiest she's been all year, we thought we'd take a look at the good, the bad and the ugly of spring skin. Let the angry comments begin...

The Good: Jenny Lewis

How fucking cute is Rilo Kiley front woman and sometimes solo artist Jenny Lewis in her plaid sundress? Ladies, this is how spring is sprung. She's showing just the right amount of her pale skin and cleavage.

The Bad: Jessica Biel

This is apparently Jessica Biel's ass. While it is a very nicely tanned and toned ass, let's talk for a minute about the shorts. They're short. Which wouldn't be so bad if she wasn't bending over in them. That, even, wouldn't be so bad if she weren't constantly followed around by paparazzi. Giving a guy in the grocery store parking lot something to smile about on his drive home is one thing, having your "pink" ass splashed across the pages of the gossip rags is another. Also, I'd just like to throw it out there that all pants, shorts, skirts, with words on the bottom should be burned. At least when it comes to outerwear. We're going to give Jess the benefit of the doubt and assume she just came from the gym. That wouldn't exactly explain the flip-flops, but still... 

The Ugly: Britney Spears

Oh, Britney, Britney, Britney. Ladies, this is how not to dress when the weather gets warm, unless you want to land a spread in the upcoming "Girls Gone Wild," the magazine. Please take note of the fact that Brit's legs are 3 shades darker than her upper body and that if we looked really closely, we could probably see her vulva. It might be tempting to put on your shortest shorts when the thermometer hits 67º. If you're going to do it, make sure you don't show your girl parts to small children on the street.
