Season Change

Planning what to wear for the holiday season should involve clothing that will last longer than the season itself. It’s easy to get seduced by the season, with it’s songs of snow and sleigh rides. Bored with warm weather we dream of a little “nip” in the air and the chance to show off our furs and fuzzy sweaters.  We often purchase fashion for the season and seek comfort by cranking the air condition down to near freezing.  In the excitement we over step our budget for the season by failing to plan for the year.

When shopping in the season you should keep in mind that a little “pop” of color will last through spring and most of summer. Black and white will last … well … forever.  Find a few special black bottoms that can go with virtually anything and wear them everywhere that requires seasonal attire (balls, banquets, country club party).  A great white shirt with a belt, sash, or tie will make an outfit that looks great with items that will last through the year not just the end of the party. By keeping “pop” pieces in a light fabric and layering with shawls and other basics you stay warm while your wardrobe gets a jumpstart on spring. 

Enjoy the season; soon you’ll be freezing in the middle of winter wearing your cute little shorts dreaming of spring.

I love our Michael Stars tops; they're perfect for this season because of their great colors and a bit of shine. Also, the tops are very lightweight - great for this warm weather - and they are wonderful to layer once it does start to cool down.
