The news, still grim.

The overall crummy weather -- with random gorgeous days that make me feel unprepared since I've only done half-arsed closet assessment/try-ons.

The 6+ months of tried-and-true outfits so that I'm bored with shedding a layer (or two) and wearing the same old.

But like it or not warm weather is a-coming [know the opposite is true for some of our reverse-season members] and I appreciate the inspirational posts!

I did get motivated to take a few things to the tailor...return a blush jersey bomber jacket that I let a friend flatter me into buying a while back [color was insanely good, fit issues not worth tailoring]...and steam a few tops that I just washed and put away last year.

I know I feel better when I'm pulled together so: onward and again, thanks!
