Electric Blue

Cobalt blue, one of my favourite hues,
 was all over the SS 2010 runways.
Its lovely paired with black and white,
but why not try an accessory in a
splashy hue like chartreuse.

Sesame Street Chic

Sesame Street was one of those mainstay shows of my childhood, like Mr. Dressup and Today's Special not to mention Polkadot Door, Mr. Rogers and Romper Room, which I watched just to see if that lady would ever see me in her magic mirror and say my name--she didn't.  These loves later morphed into Rainbow Bright, JEM and The Rockers and playing MASH in the schoolyard.

I think these photos from Harper's Bazaar, of designers posing with their creations and iconic Sesame Street characters, are just adorable.  Reminds me of a simpler time.

In Bloom


Flowers and floral patterns were all over the Spring 2010 runways - big, small, monochromatic, bright, pastel, abstract, appliqués...there was no end to the way flowers will show up on clothes for the coming season.











Some of the "new" florals really remind me of the babydolls and bodysuits we had in the early 90s, which makes me wary, but thankfully there are enough gorgeous patterns out there that feel new to me so I'll be able to embrace this happy, feminine trend.

So what do you think?  Will you be sporting florals come spring?
