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 more of a cerulean blue... that same cerulean blue that cause

Dooney and Bourke is Becoming My Favorite Again

Alto Canvas Wide Tassel Bag Amazon Medium Double Gussett Satchel Alto Magnetic Crossbody Florentine Drawstring Florentine Mini Satchel Mauro Governa Crocodile Double Shopper As I mentioned earlier, I am a total handbag and shoe fanatic.  I loved handbags every since  I received my first Coach bag at the age of 12. As the years went by, I went from being a Coach fanatic to a Dooney and Bourke fanatic, back to a Coach fanatic, and then I ventured into highend designer bags.  I have a personal SA at Louis Vuitton, a SA for Celine Luggage Bags at Barneys and the list goes on.  One thing I could never bring myself to buy was a Birkin Bag.  However, I did purchase a Hermes Evelyn last year and had buyer's remorse so I returned it.  I don't know why because I bought about 11 bags last year ranging from Bottega Veneta, Celine, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton.  I could of owned about five Birkins by now.  I figured Birkins weren't quite my style along with

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!
