Fresh Picks to Follow: Scarves

I’m a little late in posting my Friday Fresh Picks, but I went out of town unexpectedly and had little access to my computer.  So, even though it’s late Sunday evening, we’ll just have to pretend it’s Friday for the sake of my post.  My Fresh Picks to Follow this week are scarves.  I think that a scarf is a wonderful way to accessorize an outfit or to keep you warm when there is a little chill in the air! And, although I live in Florida, I have a pretty large collection of lightweight scarves. You can dress up a plain t-shirt with a fun colorful scarf or create a new look with a plain scarf that adds a pop of color.  Here are my top 10 picks of beautiful scarves for fall season.  Let me know what scarves you plan to wear this year!


1. Ann Taylor – Pleated Edge Scarf  $48.00
2. Banana Republic - Basketweave Infinity Scarf  $59.50
3. Banana Republic - Weekend printed wrap - Nordic Blue $59.50

10. COACH - Greta Glam Tube Scarf  $118.00

Get to Know: Tracy Reese

So for my first Get to Know posting I figured that I would feature the designer of my new favorite shirt.  I was able to order a Tracy Reese top, called the damson lace blouse, from an older Anthropologie catalog a couple of weeks ago (see picture here).  The designer’s name is Tracy Reese.  Tracy Reese received an accelerated degree in 1984 from Parsons School of Design in New York.  After graduating Parsons, the Detroit native worked under designer Marine Sitbon while working for the small contemporary firm, Arlequin.  


In Spring 1998, Reese launched her first collection, “Tracy Reese,” to rave reviews.  The designers’ second line, plenty by Tracy Reese was introduced later that same year.  A bohemian, “ethnic-inspired collection that is of-the moment, yet never trendy.”  The collection is eclectic, modern and adventurous.  Her collections reveal timeless wearable looks that include bright colors, bold prints and sophisticated patterns.

Tracy Reese, plenty and her other brands are sold nationwide in top department stores and specialty boutiques (like Anthropologie) as well as retailers throughout Europe and Asia.   Hopefully, we’ll continue to see more of Tracy Reese’s collection at Anthropologie and I hope to acquire more pieces from this amazing designer!

Here are a few of my favorite Tracy Reese items currently at Anthropologie stores or online:

A Quick Note

Hello ladies…happy Friday!  So, I started my blog last month and I tried my very best to write on a regular basis, but I was not successful.  I’ve been reading everyone’s pages and I have to say that all of you are so talented and creative.  I’m in constant awe that you ladies are so dedicated to your blogs and various endeavors and I’m hopeful that I will become more motivated to do the same. 

After a couple of weeks of planning and I wanted to add something new and fresh to my page – so I will be featuring several regular posts to my blog, which will include:
  1. Fresh Picks to Follow (featuring trends for the season);
  2. Miscellany Monday; and
  3. Get to Know (random designers or brands)
