However, I don't feel like wearing lots of accessories all the time since kids are around most of the time. Besides, there are house chores to do and it really is not practical for moms to wear their necklace, bracelet, rings, or even watches sometimes. So I still need to buy new clothes, everyone agree??!! haha.......
I found this blue silk jacket and fall in love w/ it at first sight. Well, I am a sucker of all shades of blue and I found myself love SILK in particular. I know, silk are high maintenance but I just cannot help it.
The designer, Chris Benz, is from Seattle, USA. Nordstrome includes his collection for 3 years already. My SA told me that he is a very prominent designer and they might mark up the price of his collection in the future. Well, I was kinda shocked as I replied my SA: In this bad economy? As recession is nearly down to the bottom , maybe?
I guess just like John Galliano said, economic is down doesn't mean their creativity of fashion should be dull/down w/ it. Their creativity make dreams come true. They keep up their quality, passion to make clothes. Thus, the price for high fashion, jewelry will still be WAY UP THERE!!!
