Bird's Eye View or Orange You Glad


Hi C,


We're all thinking spring here despite the blanket of snow that covers the ground. As you know, I'm an early riser and have witnessed signs of spring in the wee small hours. The birds are singing, the owls are hooting and the geese honking its arrival. I still have trouble getting the concept that you're experiencing just the opposite down under. You mentioned soft hues of grey and taupe as showing up on Sydney's fall fashion forecast. Here we're happily unpacking boxes of color at Nextdoor. For the past two years it seemed that everything came in two shades, black or grey. This spring orange is on the horizon in all its glory, every shade you can imagine from soft corals to bright tangerines. Our customers are loving it! Course, we're pretty casual here as you know. Everything has to work back to a great pair of jeans, a cute handbag and some fun accessories. I have lots of shades of orange yarn in the studio and have enjoyed knitting up some colorful easy wraps to wear indoors now and outdoors later on. I'll keep you posted as the season progresses, but so far it looks like a colorful spring!
