you had me at hello: i'm feelin' kinda blue...

my name is elena...and i have a coat addiction...but i'm wondering...is it an addiction or just a love of beautiful coats? hmmm...

while i was flipping through a bloomingdales catalog...my eyes feasted on this lovely...i've never really gravitated towards blue...but this sweet maxi coat...had me at hello...a blue double -breasted maxi coat by nanette lepore...doesn't every coat collector need a blue one as well?

did you notice i went from having an addiction to being a collector of coats? has a nicer ring to it...either way...i'm not ashamed...the only problem is...i don't see this on the bloomingdales website...maybe i'm too late...

i wonder what started my love for blue?

swimming in color...

springtime is an expected trigger for added splashes of color throughout one's wardrobe...so...whatever you do...don't stop before you get that colorful burst of color in your swimsuit as well...

yes...it is easy to gravitate to black...and talk yourself into it...because "black is slimming"...but...as long as you work on the right "type" of suit...color can be just as slimming...and oh...so much more...colorful...

i'm thinking of getting a new suit this year...although i love my current teal swimsuit...these are some that caught my eye...

so...when looking for a swimsuit...do you gravitate towards colors & prints?
