Writer, Sex and the City

Through the ages, women have never had a lack of complaints about the inequalities between men and women. Particularly when it comes to romance, dating and age, there's always been a lot to complain about. I wish I could say that I am not about to contribute to that litany of gripes, but oh no, I'm about to jump right in. So, this whole "Cougar" thing.

14 March 2008

Living in New York City, I dutily stalked Fashion Week last month. I’m not cool enough yet to warrant an invite into the tents but I am cool enough to spot celebrities doing their best to keep up with current trends and one thing I noticed was lots of bright colors. As someone who knows just how depressing winter can get, bright colors are exciting and a great way to lift your spirits. It’s hard to stay down when you’re staring at bright oranges and purples.

If you’re not ready to take the plunge like Victoria Beckham and wear a bright orange dress in the middle of February, there are some really cute accessories that make every outfit pop.

Buying a bright bag is a great way to get ready for the spring. Jessica Simpson’s Zanzibar bag comes in yellow and turqouise and is only $68. But if you’re looking at the color of the bag and thinking that you’re just not ready for that kind of commitment, there are some other really great alternatives. Like this Cynthia Rowley patent leather belt. It comes in electric blue and pink. The price is between $42 and $46, depending on which color you get.
