Seriously. I would if I could. I would own nothing else but a closet full of coats. Many lengths. Many colors. Lots of fabrics. Coats. Just coats.

That’s the unique color of this handknit cable twist scarf which would make any gal the most stylish bitch on the block come winter time. And with over 5 ft in length, you’ll be warm as well as good looking. I mean really, what more can you ask for?

Wearable fruit

Yeah, I think I need this. It is summer after all. And besides, I’m kind of a fruit so it seems appropriate.

On the hunt!

I’ve decided I want a yellow sweater. A little yellow cardigan to be exact. Bright yellow. Canary yellow. Safety so I don’t get hit crossing the street yellow. Why? I don’t know, I just think it would be a nice color pop in my spring wardrobe. And I recently got a little navy blue dress that I thought would go just perfectly with a yellow sweater. It would make me look like my name should be Muffy and I’m on my way to a short jaunt in the Hamptons. What? Something wrong with that?

Regardless, now I can’t stop thinking about it. And wouldn’t you know – I can’t find one! So to the internet I’m going. Here’s what I’ve come up with (keep in mind I am C.H.E.A.P.). I’m having trouble picking. Which one would you pick?

This was the question of the day on one of the local morning radio shows as I was driving to work today. The stipulation of the answer was that it had to be something tangible, which made me laugh because my immediate thought was, “body.” But my tangible answer would have to be the perfect pair of jeans. Ones that are comfortable yet fit like a glove and can be worn casual or dressed up and make you feel sexy as hell. Yeah, I don’t own a pair of those. And I’m convinced that it’s clearly because they don’t make them.

But then I came upon Indi Denim, which are custom made jeans. Created from your own body measurements, you can design your very own custom pair. You get to choose the fabric, rise, coin pocket, fly, leg style, hem, back pocket shape, back pocket style, and numerous finishing treatments. And if that’s a bit too much for you to take in all at once, you can even select a predefined style that they will customize to your measurements. Maybe, just maybe, there is a perfect pair of jeans out there afterall.
