PEARLS and BOB MARLEY.....

Rumor has it that Talbots may be closing. I don't believe it, but it has stirred up some emotions. I have "towed the fine line" between classic attire and dread locks my entire life. "Sybil in the South", its the Floridian style. As the winter commercial says, " The rules are different in Florida!!!" The sun and salt air, and the Devil's humidity create a style of our own. We can be "free-spirits" to a fault BUT...we don't care. We adorn ourselves with pearls and cut-off jeans. You can throw a sweet, pastel cardigan over anything and be dressed. We need Talbots to remain open. The sales ladies at Talbots could not get a job any other place. No one else would hire, these properly dressed, pent-up people. Marvelous ladies, classy, just not sassy. I need you to stick around. What will I throw over my Cyndi Lauper vintage frock, if not a cute blazer from The Big Red Door??? I hope its just a mean rumor. Talbots has kept me in check, and the " burbs" have not turned upside down , yet!!!! Pearls and Dreads, One Love!!!
