HOT FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Texas hill country begins to call as we enter into autumn….quaint villages like Boerne, Fredericksburg, and Wimberley offer bundles of boutique shopping and Americana Bed & Breakfast stays. But ladies, remember the fashion rules I have given you so far. Avoid the shapeless, loose clothes and look for items with fit! Fashion wise? I have discovered the hill country boutiques to be best for accessories such as jewelry, scarves, bags and shoes. It is a lot harder to find affordable, quality, clothing with fit. While I prefer these shops for interior treasures, I have at times found some treasures for the exterior (I have some turquoise jewelry from Frederiksberg that I love). BUT, and this is a big BUT, avoid holiday sweaters and sweatshirts. Step away quickly…. There is no way that sporting a large pumpkin or Christmas tree on your torso is flattering.
