Spring Fever!

Honestly, there can't be anything more dreary than a cloudy February day. Maybe we'll get snow showers; maybe the sky will clear for a second and we'll have bone-chilling winds. How I long for a warm, sunny, breezy day....the kind that taunts you with visions of leisurly picnics and invigorating nature walks. How I eagerly await the arrival of the bluebirds...the daffodils...the fresh strawberries...

Okay, now I've gotten that out of my system! One thing I have noticed in the Spring and Summer '08 fashion lines: color, color, color! Primaries, florals, tropicals...it's all about cheery colors and fabulous textures. I especially love the mixing of solid bright colors with bold ethnic patterns. I'm a BoHo girl at heart; I love the Asian-inspired looks and fabrics, especially with laces and bows. Sigh! Makes me long to ditch the long sleeves and jackets!
