i've packed a change of clothes, and its time to move on.

Everyone will tell you that I have a thing for bright colors. Thus, you could only imagine my delight when I spotted bright splashes of cherry red, electric yellow, barbie pink, and lush cerulean all strewn across the fall runways.

That's right dear readers, color is no longer confined to the stuffy and humid months of June, July and August. No, color has decided that it would like to be apart of the rest of the year as well. So say goodbye to that charcoal grey military jacket of yours - and say hello to this Louis Vuitton overcoat in a yummy fire-engine red. Plus, the last thing we need in this economic crisis is to look dark and dreary for half the year. Remember and repeat: Color = Optimism!

For those of you, like me, who lack the funds to purchase such runway numbers, I'm sure that some time within the next four months you will find a lonely juicy apple green peacoat abandoned at a thrift store. After all, this is why they show fall collections in spring!

  13. Dries Van Noten's Fall Collection reminded me of rainbow sherbet ice cream. It was an incredible show to watch.

    Lovely blog. I hope you don't mind I'm adding you to my rolodex.

  15. I was surprised, pleasantly so as to how easy it is to walk in those shoes. Taking them off is another story afterward my ankles feel all weird and kind of sore.. lol. :)

    Thanks for the sweetness, love. xo!

  16. i love those colours. and i actually found myself striving to wear bright colours this winter. there's nothing like a bright shirt or skirt to brighten up a cold and dreary winter day.

    yet thank god spring is finally here. yay!

  17. Very nice thoughts. I'm rather an all season bright color wearer myself--it's much more practical for people with less funds too--it means no clothes are restricted to a single season!

  18. I do need to repeat that to myself. I wear way too much black.
    Color = Optimism, Color = Optimism, Color = Optimism, Color =... lol
