I love the fall – the colors of the changing leaves; the brilliance of the clear blue sky; the clean, crisp air and the way the sun illuminates the day making the colors of the season look as if they’ve been painted with an artist’s palette.

I love the rich hues, the textures and silhouettes – and I am insane for the latest styles of shoes, boots and handbags that beckon me from the selling floor.
