Color Trends for 2012

As a blogger, I check other blogs that interest me.  I have been a frequent visitor in the past year of http://www.purseblog.com/.  On the blog today, they talked about the color trends for 2012 in handbags.   Pantone, Inc. who specializes in proprietary color space has chosen a color Tangerine Tango as the color trend of the year.  Tangerine Tango can be described as a reddish/orange color.  Purseblog being a blog for purses  decided to find handbags that fall into this color category.  One of the bags, a Bottega Veneta Maxi Veneta Hobo was being featured.  It is a color called Fire.  I have a Bottega Veneta Large Belly bag that I purchased on sale for $1,800.00 about a year ago in Fire.  The Bottega Veneta Large Belly bag can be seen here at http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod138600017&parentId=cat33170732&masterId=cat3650751&index=2&cmCat=cat000000cat000001cat000009cat000019cat3650751cat33170732&isEditorial=false.

When I look at the color that is being introduced and the bag that I already own, I am so glad that I like what I like.  I always advise people, to buy what they like and dress according to your body type.  When you do this, you will always be in style.  Truly stylish people don't follow the majority when they dress themselves, they like what they like. It amazes me that  when trends come out, I just laugh at myself and say "I already own that."
Style or swagger can't be bought; it is a given.  That is what this blog is about, encouraging others to find their individual selves.  Love the person that the Creator has made and find your own destiny/style.

Dooney and Bourke Florentine Smith Bag in Royal Blue

Good Morning All, I have been enjoying this nice Chicago weather we have.  It has been around 70-80 degrees for almost two weeks now.  It is kind of creepy.  I went to Culver's yesterday to get one of my favorite treats, a three scoop lemon Ice and while in the drive through I see a big bumblebee.  Spring is definitely in the air.  I am waiting for the ball to drop.  Will we be getting 6 inches of snow in May?  Anyways, I got a new bag.  Well, I exchanged a bag that I had bought about two months ago for this bag.  It is the Dooney and Bourke Florentine Smith Bag in Royal Blue.  I had purchased this bag in white/tan for the spring and had a change of heart.  I like white bags; however, they don't wear well.  Eventually they will get some kind of color transfer from denim or they will yellow overtime. I have a Chloe and Marc Jacobs bag that did that.  Well, the bag in my opinion is not royal blue in person.  It is ...

Is Blogging Dead?

Hello To All. I have been missing in action from this blog since 2015.  I am the type of person that gets bored with things quite quickly.  I have a question for you today.  Is blogging dead?  There are millions of blogs out there covering everything from fashion, food, homes, wine, and etc.  With the fashion piece, Instagram has taken over the need to post a  blog about what a person is wearing and what the audience should buy. However, is it quite necessary to share with the world everything that a person does in their life. I am signing off with this open ended question; should you leave things to the  imagination?  Ponder on that question; will you. Until next time, many, many, many, blessings!

Louis Vuitton Dog Advertisement

                                         Louis Vuitton Montreal, Canada  July, 2009 I know this is random; however after looking at numerous publications such as Vogue over the past two months, I couldn't help but to love their new advertisement campaign featuring the Japanese Chins.  I lived in Japan for about 4 1/2 years and I fell in love with Japanese Chins.  I loved them so much that I purchased a cute little male Japanese Chin from a non-for-profit organization in Lake County (Chicago, Illinois).  I was tickled to see how my love for Louis Vuitton and Japanese Chins were brought to life
