In Limbo

I always find this time of year to be one of limbo. The weather is shakey and so is fashion options. The landscape is bleak and it’s difficult to have a fresh look among so many limited options. Some spring lines are beginning to emerge in boutiques and shops, but most items are too cold to wear just yet and December 2007 items have been thrown on one too many times. With Paris Fashion Week in full swing, give it another two weeks or so and the sun will be brighter, weather warmer and clothing options broader. Until then, one suggestion: layers. Layers allow for you to pair that sleeveless top with a winter-warm sweater and cropped jacket and show off many different combinations throughout the day as layers are removed or more pieces are added. Release your cabin-fever – go crazy with fabrics and patterns. But remember, the suggestion to do so comes with a two-week deadline. I LOVE short-skirt weather and I think March is a completely appropriate month to break-out in a fringed-hippy-inspired mini…30 + days and counting….
