Flare for the Dramatic

Aren't we all dreaming of spring right now? One more dreary, rainy or snowy day, and I'm booking a trip to an exotic locale. I swear I'll do it . . . I'm on the edge. What soothes me during these times? Looking at spring clothes of course. Specifically, the new spring trends.<br /><br />So, what should pop in my inbox today but an email from <a href="http://www.shopbop.com/ci/3/lb/on/feb/of-note-feb-08.html">Shopbop</a>, a site I love to peruse but rarely purchase from.

Predicting Red for 2011 Color of the Year

What do I base this on? It's certainly not any market research but I have been noticing & admiring the color red lately. I emphasize the "admiring" part as I've never been one to care for red and if I'm starting to like it that must mean something (or, nothing at all!) The red bead<br />chandelier is from <a href="http://www.buckinghamid.com/">Julia Edelmann's</a> design studio in Chicago. You may remember the previous version in turquoise.
