I took full advantage of the slightly-warmer day by dressing for spring, and I received a warm welcome wherever I went today.  It's like people in Ohio forgot the possibilities and potential of spring colors.  In one office, a girl said "I LOVE all of your colors.  I could never pull that off."  Ummm...why?  I don't understand why people think they can't "get away" with wearing colors.  Honey, if I as a near 6-foot tall amazon woman can do it, you can too!  The world love colors and reacts well to them.  It's time to grow out of your black and neutral shells! 

Loft has really been making up for lost time lately. Although the store still offers far too much polysester, there are some very reasonably-priced cotton numbers, like this skirt, that have made me happy lately.  Check it out!  I'm wearing a size 6, and it's TTS.

Thanks for reading!
