How to Pack for Springtime in Paris: Sunshine and Clouds

March 22 2014
 
This post was originally on A Femme d’un Certain Age on March 28, 2012.  If you’ve never browsed through her ginormous archives, there’ a world of loveliness there…
 
And if you’re one of the lucky ones that wear yellow well, then GET TO IT!  The rest of us swoon with desire when we see it, and envy you your ability to look so fabulous in it…

    I agree with Pam. As a matter of fact, I love the idea of bringing back some of the archive materials. You have buried treasures down there and they bear repeating. I get so much inspiration from your posts as they motivate me shop my closet for new combinations. Please bring back a full report of the current Paris street fashions/fads. I'm always curious. Hope you are having an absolute blast! We miss you.

    Love the pop of colour….our daffodils are blooming and Spring is in the air so a cheery yellow scarf is definitely well timed.

    I'm intrigued by the JC Penny scarf. How it it worn/tied?

    That scarf is actually from Anne Selby, and I think you could really best wear it draped around your neck, maybe looped over once, but not too much. It's the kind of scarf that a knot would only ruin!
