Spring has Sprung at Talbots

I've been quietly shopping at Talbots for about a year now. Ever since my mother dragged me into the Shadyside store over Christmas and I realized that they had cute dresses, their petites fit me perfectly, and the prices couldn't be beat! I just received their Spring catalog yesterday and it looks like Julianne Moore is also a fan. I think I might have to head to the store today for that yellow skirt. My days of wearing shorts are over but you young fashionistas need to buy those suede shorts! They are tres chic! Happy Spring!

Color My World

The biggest trend on the Spring/Summer 2011 runways was color. Not just a little color but bright, bold, beautiful hues that will shake up your world. After this brutal winter, I can't think of anything I want to wear more than cheerful colors. There are many interior designers who embrace color in their work like Jamie Drake (above), Kelly Wearstler and Miles Redd but I wonder if others will start to see the light. Enjoy!

Orange You Glad It's Friday?

As you probably know by know, orange is my favorite color. While red can signal danger and seem aggressive, I always think orange looks cheerful and happy. I do however like orange paired with a little red as well as pink, fuchsia and purple. The spring 2011 runways were filled orange but as you can see, it also works for interiors. Bon Weekend!
