One of the ways I'm trying to distract myself from being sick--some sort of streppy sinus infection was one of my Christmas gifts--is thinking about my want/need list for 2011 shopping. The Banana Republic jacket above is squarely on the "want" list. I love grey period, but it's so unusual for leather that I feel like it must be mine.
This TravelSmith blazer, on the other hand, is more of need, since I only have one blazer that I would feel comfortable wearing for anything professional and this one looks like it could go with my Docs and a funky dress, a walk on the beach with some guy's arm, or a conference. Plus I think it would look good with my coloring.And then there's this Anthro. cardigan of joy. This might have to be a "goals reached" reward cardigan. I can see wearing it around when I'm doing non-academic writing, like one of three children's books I'm planning out....
What colors/items/patterns are on your 2011 need/want list?
