Of course we want to shop in the spring! Everything springs anew in the spring so why not our clothes? And the colors - from flowers to easter eggs, the range and diversity rock our world.
For me (and TS Eliot), April represents the cruelest time. It deceives us into thinking that the pastel shades of spring look good on everyone who survived the winter. I'm especially gullible each year since I think I suffer from that deprivation of light depression in the winter, but does this excuse the purchase of way too many soft robin egg blue blouses and light green dresses in spring shopping ventures? Or the bright yellow GAP rain hat? The lilac Banana Republic cardigan?
Thankfully, because of my hiatus, this year I will enjoy my pastels and bright colors only on the flowers.
