Still in love


I both love it and hate it when I see a collection that makes me want to throw out all my clothing and start all over using a distinct color palette and only that palette. Last fall I felt that way about this collection from Comrags (don't get me started on the name). Yes, I said last fall. But as a vintage seller I give no weight to *new* and *fresh* collections. Good is good, timeless is timeless; and this collection from Fall 2008 is both. I am so inspired by it and I can see it is inspired by the 1930s so it makes much sense that I love it. Whatever that rusty brown color is has my heart right now. And if anyone can find a kickass black wool coat with fur shoulders, well, I am willing to open up a serious discussion about selling a kidney.

Wow, this collection is seriously amazing! Don't worry about liking something from a few seasons ago. I decided not to write on my blog about the spring collections that come out in the fall, even though I look at them. It's just silly to me. It's fall where I live, I'm dressing for fall and thinking about fall, I don't want to write about spring! Anyway, I digress.

I also love this - it's lady-like but not fussy, dressy but not stiff, lux but not far out. It looks lovely AND comfortable.

Yes, that is a beautiful collection! I adore the colors. And that name - are you kidding me?!

That rusty brown color has always had my heart, and I'm always always pairing brown and black. Ugh. Now I want to throw out all of my colors too. It would be worth it if I could look that fab! *sigh*
