I am going away at the end of next month. After looking at last year’s vacation clothes it is obvious I need an update. If you could suggest some key pieces for vacation and the coming seasons, what would they be? Kathy R., Kennebunkport, ME
A: This is the situation many of us find ourselves in. A great pair of shorts in a neutral color would be ideal. We love a fitted Bermuda (we’ll have some in-store soon from Sanctuary, Vince, Alice + Olivia to name a few). This silhouette allows for you to create casual and dressier outfits; tops and shoes will change up the look here. A great above-the-knee skirt, and a light-weight cardi will give you options when you add in a couple of printed tops. Opt for a jersey dress, as you will love the ease of just throwing it on. Beyond that, pick up fresh colorful tees and a fabulous new bathing suit! This should round out your vacay look and give you a great starting point for spring. Happy travels!

Here is our interpretation of “Snow Bunny Chic”, so cuddle up to your computer with some hot cocoa, and check this out….

From left, Ivory Magaschoni ruffle wrap over For Joseph long cardy vest with Beth Bowley animal cami peeking through… Sanctuary velvet pants complete the cozy look. Middle; Lilla P. layer turtleneck under a Margaret O’Leary ruffle cardy, topped with a Three dot sweater vest, Sayami ombre peach scarf, and faux croc skinny belt. Three dot ponte leggings finish the outfit.Far right, Ponte leggings paired with a lurex stripe Michael Stars tunic, origami wrap over that, Lilla P. french terry jacket, and a White and Warren ruffle scarf. Please call your local store for prices.
