It's Spring Time: The Colors Are Out

-
It's officially Spring in New York City! No doubt. 

So, while some parts of the world are still battling the winter, the New Yorkers are fiercely - [judging by the enormous crowds at the stores this past weekend] - getting ready for the Spring by scooping the latest trends in clothes, shoes and accessories.

Mind me saying once again that Spring/Summer 2012 might end up being the most colorful time in the past few years that I've observed in America and other parts of the world. It's gonna be screaming blues, greens, yellows, oranges - [ah, my favorite color of all!] - reds, and purples. Just about in any imaginable color and color variation. The color blocks are happening, so take a note - in both clothes, shoes and accessories.


Personally, the color makes me happy and seeing more color on both myself and the others - makes me even happier. 

I'm excited for the coming year and ahead, which means - I might finally replace my overwhelmingly black wardrobe with some more colors and I'll have an excuse to do so... So, do experiment with the colors and do mix and match the colorful clothes, accessories and shoes with the colorful nails. It's all good. Just see how Italians do it, who are notorious for knowing, understanding and utilizing the colors in their lives better than anyone.

What about you? What are the colors that make you happy and you look forward to wearing in the Spring, Summer and Fall of 2012?

Mine is - orange! Although I did like how e x p o s e d my very hot pink nails looked the other week - [because the color is, actually, called the Exposure by Esse], and I did like the very pink flat sandals at Zara, the other day, although my mind kept wondering to High Heel Sandal With Buckles - [which, by the way, are all sold out across the U.S.!] -  remembering seeing those in one of the fashion magazines.

Small Town Profile: The Texan Style

  It's been my fifth year in a row spending Christmas in College Station, Texas - a town that I would have never thought I'd end up going to more than I do to any other places in the world. [How many times I wished my parents settled in places like Paris, London, Florence, Split, Berlin, or at least - in San Francisco and/or Washington, DC - the places that I'd be more than happy to visit them at more often!] So, it's a true battle when the holidays or vacation times come - to go visit my parents in Texas or to go to Paris, Amsterdam or Tokyo - or places I've never visited before? - a battle that I often loose in favor of my parents, and, thus - in favor of the little Texan town, College Station...

The spring is almost here, which means - soon-to-be-packed and stored away winter boots are in much need to be replaced with the next sexy-thing on the shoe markets. And not just replaced with any shoes, but with the shoes that make a statement. That is - a  big city kind of statement. These should be the ultimate shoes for both a stylish day and night out on a city. Here's what I call statement shoes perfect for many reasons, including for the reasons appreciate a good piece of art, nature and sexiness in the details:

My Travels: Vermont In Night And Day

OK, here's why I'm not gonna post much this weekend - I'm trying to get the last of what's left of the winter. I'm hitting the slops up in Vermont: one day of skiing at the Killington, VT - today, and tomorrow - it's Stratton, VT . I'm excited about both, especially because I don't get to go skiing often, first of all. Second of all - as I got older, I realized that I'm not really a 'winter sports' person, I'm more of a summer sports person. I prefer to be out in the sun in shorts, rollerblading, playing beach volleyball and/or tennis, or going for a jog and/or a bike ride. That's said, I am , actually, excited for this snowy weekend, but mostly because... The huge part of my excitement lays within the fact that aside from skiing, I'm spending this weekend with my friends at a beautiful house with a fire place in the middle of the woods. And waking up to a smell of freshly brewed coffee and a view to die for - i
