Red Hot

They say April is the cruelest month but for me, I think it's February. I loathe Valentine's Day and any other holiday for which I am made to feel inferior for not having a date. But in the spirit of if you can't beat them, you might as well join them, I'm deciding to embrace all things red this month. As an Aries, red is supposed to be my color yet I never wear it. They say men are most attracted to women wearing red. I did meet my college boyfriend while wearing a dark red duffel coat so they could be on to something. This also seemed like the perfect day to post red since I'm attending the 20th Anniversary party for Christian Louboutin tonight at Bergdorf Goodman. Might have to invest in a new pair of red soles and maybe even a red dress. Look out February!

Spring Fling

I'm sure you've already heard me declare that I really want to burn all my winter clothes but I really mean it this time. I'm over boots, tights, sweaters, scarves, hats, gloves, and coats. I long for weather that will allow me to just wear jeans and flats with a top of course and a light jacket. I have been buying colorful spring clothes which now hang in my closet taunting me. That's why I love all of these ladies ensembles. I wish I could incorporate more color into my winter wardrobe for this almost spring but not quite time of year. Even just a lighter colored jacket would help. I've already decided that I'm not buying anything grey next fall and might even do something really crazy like buy a red coat. But for now, the best I can do are red nails. Better than nothing I guess.
