It's almost that time of year again

It's almost time for The Clothes Exchange! The date has been set for May 7th and now is the time to clean out your closet. Clear out all of the sweaters that you never wore this winter, try on all of your jeans, and evaluate what you need to purchase this spring to complete your wardrobe. The rule is if you haven't worn it in over a year, why are you keeping it? It won't come back in style- trust me!

This is a photo from last year- get there early or better yet, purchase an "early bird" pass!

Spring bags

Check these lovely little bags...okay a few are really not so little. Pictured on the top shelf is a woven bag from French Connection. It's thick wooden handle gives the straw body and edgy feel. Next to it is a vintage leather bag from Hobo.

On the bottom shelf is another vintage leather bag from Hobo, in the luscious mogano color. But check out the fringe tote from French Connection! Prairie chic has arrived.

Fall update

Here we are in the middle of winter and I'm thinking of next fall. Here's a sampling of what you can expect to see:

-plaid- it was all over New York, especially in unusual color combinations
-leggings- thought they were over- nope. I would invest in a good quality pair.
-sequins- wear them during the day or with jeans
-boyfriend tees- oversize tops are here to stay
