Well, yes, I took the Summer off. I know how much you missed me...and yes, Brian, I was remiss (there is always one in the bunch ready to point out your faults, isn't there?...love you anyway, Brian).
So I am back and ready to talk shop. First order of business, CLEAN YOUR CLOSETS! It's a new season, a new start, so bag up all those clothes you haven't worn in a couple of years and donate them to someone who will wear them. Dry clean your outerwear (or use a home dry cleaning product, which is what I do), freshen up those sweaters, break out the "sweater shaver", clean last year's salt build-up off of your boots (shame on you for leaving it there in the first place), and make room for a few new additions.
Ladies, look over your purses...you may want to switch out the Summer bag. For some reason, Fall says, "big purse". I am not sure why, but it does, so there you have it. Summer says, "Purse big enough to hold your lip gloss, credit card, business cards, and mints", and Fall says, "Make room for big holiday shopping wallets, gloves, umbrella (yes, I can fit my umbrella in some of my purses...what of it?), and kid's junk (lots of junk), and the IPad" (so you can play Scrabble while sitting through any one of the numerous child-driven after school activities).
Men, there is a fairly good chance your shoes need an update. The whole Birkenstock w/sock, dress pant thing is not working...put...the sandals...away. There are plenty of comfortable shoes out there, so go investigate (and by comfortable shoe I do not mean sneakers). Live a little, go to a real shoe store and invest in your feet. The tapered, shorter length pant is pretty hip right now, paired with some funky socks, and you cannot skimp on the shoe.
Well I'm spent. This is more writing than I have done all Summer. Keep posted for sales and updates as they come in.
Missed you all...hugs and winky face.
Bonnie
