I like Athleta clothes!

I got a catalog for this company in the mail a few days ago. Even though I've never heard of them before, I would like to order almost everything! I really love the flowery designs. They are meant for atheletic women who want more stylish clothing. I'm not really a great athlete, but I do tend to stay pretty active. These clothes also make me feel anxious for warm weather to come! Unfortunately, its like zero degrees today in Ohio, so it seems like it might be a long time before I can wear this kind of thing.

Emanuel Ungaro pre-fall 2009 is my kind of style

I really like this guys style. The casual suits with the colorful graphic designs are similar to what I like to wear to work. All the shapes are great and somewhat unexpected.

JUMP shoes are unusual and stylish

Looking for something unusual and stylish? Check out these shoes by JUMP that I found on Zappos.com. I'm thinking about getting the ones that look like they have patent leather spats!

Flowery spring dresses for Spring

It looks like the designers have looked at fashion magazines from the early 70's for inspiration for spring 2009 fashions. I like these maxi dresses from Nordstrom.com, but they don't fit very well with my small-town rural Ohio lifestyle. They look more like something one would wear in a beach town or in a tropical country. They remind me a bit of the flowery dresses that women wear frequently in Malaysia.

American Visionary Art Museum

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to visit Baltimore Maryland for some shopping and sight seeing. The most interesting place I went was the American Visionary Art Museum. The mosaics pictured here are on the outside of the building. Unfortunately, you are not allowed to take pictures on the inside.

This was my kind of place! The gift store was outstanding, with all kinds of kooky jewelry and gifts. A lot of the art was by what they call "outsiders" which usually means that they were self-taught and not affiliated with any art school.

I highly recommend this place to anyone going to Baltimore!

Moschino Spring 2009 Collection

I found a lot to like in Moschino's Spring 2009 collection. The bright colors, crazy sunglasses, feminine dresses and platform shoes, all made me wish I had a spring garden party to dress for! Where are the lace gloves?

Naeem Khan has beautiful asian style

Yesterday when I was surfing the internet I discovered the Spring 2009 collection of designer Naeem Khan.

I wish that I could wear something like this without looking totally out of place!

These dresses remind me of when I lived in Malaysia, and many ladies wore beautiful silk dresses everyday, and did not look out of place.
