Many moons ago when I was teaching, I wore navy blue, khaki, white, black and grey.....and that was IT. I had like 75 grey shirts. I could wear a different grey tee every days for months....never wear the same one twice. It was weird!!! My husband and I would walk in a store, and he KNEW exactly which racks I was heading for. I remember when I added red to my repertoire I thought he was going to have a coronary.

I have a collection of jackets......I buy a lot of coats every season.....a lot. I bought this amazing Calvin Klein puffy down coat with a fur hood just before Christmas (just after buying a dark brown suede at Banana Republic and a Gap denim and a Gap baseball style)....and I haven't worn it in a month because I got home from Disneyland and bought myself a quilted black Ralph Lauren coat that I love. I've had my eye on several other quilted jackets and a pea coat lately....and a pink suede. Just waiting for the sales.

And scarves. I could tie them end to end and they'd stretch across the Golden Gate.......
