Sandro Dress

In case you haven’t been paying attention, my latest fashion posts have been filled with summer dresses. That is because I am a sale shopper, and as soon as the 60% off or “store closing” notices appear in my inbox, I hit the stores.

One fashion investment that I believe strongly in is a high quality spring coat. If you happen to find one on sale, even better.

When Pantone announced its spring 2015 colors, I took note. When the color Marsala was one of the top choices, I was puzzled. I typically associate this color with autumn; the changing leaves and the chill in the air seem to signal a need for warmth and comfort, and that is where the color of wine comes into play.
