It has been a cool rainy start to summer and I have quite a few items in my closet including swim suits that I haven’t worn yet or wore once while in Las Vegas a few weeks back. On a recent trip to the mall to purchase some Lancome products, I noticed that the fall lines are rolling in. One store even had little wool jackets on display. “Did I miss something?” I thought as I strolled along. Did summer come and go without my knowing? I am accustomed to the mid-July sales and the back-to-school pushes everywhere but mid June just felt too soon for me. Loving fashion, I am always attracted by what’s new on the horizon. I can’t wait to peruse the September issues of the major fashion magazines but I sometimes feel cheated out of enjoying what is “now”. If I were working for a designer, I’d already be onto spring/summer 2012 and later. I will be happy to report on this blog, the new trends for fall as they roll in but for now I am going to revel in the fact that we are only 6 days into summer. And until I feel some heat my way, that’s where my thoughts will remain.
