Put Away That Winter Coat!

It's Spring, finally.  Can you believe it?  The weather is a little warmer, too warm for a winter coat, but not quite warm enough to go without a little something on, so break out your light jackets and blazers.  I added two new ones to my wardrobe, both neutral colors, that can be worn with anything so I will get a lot of use from them.  Check them out.

I love this jacket, ivory with metallic threads woven through it, an asymmetrical zipper, fringed detail and zippers on the sleeves at the cuff.  

This khaki blazer is a staple, very nicely made and a must have in the wardrobe, goes with everything and anything.

Lady in Red

Most people have one favorite color, I don't have just one favorite color.  Red is one of my favorite colors, pink is another.  In fact, I love all colors, they make me happy.  I was never a black, white and gray girl, my two daughters wear those colors all the time.  Although I do like those colors in combinations with other colors, I just don't wear them alone.  I always say brighten it up, especially around the face.  It gives your skintone a whole different look.  I got this dress for Christmas and I LOVE IT!  It reminds me of a pencil dress from the 1950's.  Clean lines, high scoop neckline, nice sleeve, detail at the waist and at the top, and perfect length.  What can I say - only that it's the perfect dress for me.  I dressed it up a little more with some of my jewelry and silver metallic shoes and handbag, Hey, I am ready to go!

Whoo Hoo, Shoes!

Let's not forget that shoes are an accessory, a part of the outfit, that pop of color or sparkle.  What you wear on your feet is just as important as what you wear on your body.  Everybody looks! so give them something to look at.  A cute pair of flats or pumps will get them paying attention to the rest of your outfit. So put on your shoes and strut your stuff!
