I love springtime for all its color, but spring starts out pretty chilly even here in Florida and I hate covering up my cheery spring wardrobe with a somber jacket. That’s why I was so excited recently when I found a bright yellow jacket perfect for spring.
While I haven’t found it online, I did find this lantern-sleeve Twiggy jacket from American Rag that is very similar and just as cute. It’s available in palace blue and bittersweet coral, both great colors that will enhance your spring outfits.
Plus, it’s just $59 — over $20 less than what I paid for my similar jacket.
It’s available in sizes S-L and ships to the U.S. and APO/FPO addresses.

Like the trench coat, the peacoat was originally worn by men in the military but now more likely to be worn by us women who appreciate it for its clean lines. Fortunately, guys don’t seem to mind.
This wool peacoat
from dEliA*s is a lovely example of a peacoat that is classic but feminine, since it’s designed to flatter our curvier figures.
It’s an easy choice when you want a practical but stylish coat. The hardest part is choosing which color to get. Both the black and charcoal grey are great if you want a neutral coat. However, I’m in love with the emerald green since it’s harder to find green outerwear and that’s a fantastic shade that’s bright and cheery. Of course, the crimson red is also a lovely choice.
Originally $88.50, this peacoat is now on sale for $69.50. If you need protection from the cold, there’s also this version with Thinsulate

The right cape can be both practical and whimsical, a great addition to any gal’s wardrobe. The wrong cape can look like a tent.
Fortunately, the designers at Tocca knew what they were doing when they designed this ultra-feminine Clarette cape.
In addition to being gorgeous, it’s not at all boxy, still shows the figure underneath, and is nice and warm since it’s 75% virgin wool and 25% Angora. It’s the perfect alternative when you get bored of chunky knits.
Listed at $465, it’s now 40% off, down to $279. It’s available in sizes medium and large, and it ships to the U.S. and APO/FPO addresses.

I have recently become obsessed with fur. Feline, fabulous, funky fur.
No doubt readers from the northern hemisphere will be amused to note my excitement but, for Sydney girls, fur is uncalled for in terms of a fashion staple, except for the occasional catwalk moment. (Of course I am talking of fur of the fake variety!)
Here are the looks I’ve been loving on Tokyo’s streets.

There are occasions when only a matching suit will do — but thankfully, not many! That’s why a versatile suit is essential, and this beautful red suit is perfect.
For only $74.99 (80% off the retail of $380), you get a complete matching skirt suit for formal occasions… but more importantly, this suit is made up of three versatile separates:
- a jacket that will dress up your plain black pants
- a skirt that can mix and match with neutral jackets
- a plain tank to wear under almost anything
…plus a detachable bow to hide the jacket closure or wear at the waistband of the skirt.
The gorgeous embroidered fabric makes it possible to dress it down for work or dress it up for evening wear. It’s available in sizes 8-16 petite.
A boring work suit, this ain’t!
