say whether you are northern or southern hemisphere and what you think are hot ticket items for this season coming up.

myself: southern hemisphere, gaudy belts for the waist and hard acrylic pendants on chains and as brooches, woolen vest worn over shirt.

northern hemisphere. when i was in nyc last month i saw baggy cuffed short shorts in every window and loads of metallic flats. probably same as last year but i'm still seeing lots of long strands of beads, chunky bracelets, and large, long earrings.

southern hemisphere:

- boots. slouchy ones. those ones with the foldy over bit at the top. high heeled. low heeled. with skinny jeans tucked in. with skirts. seriously. i'm loving boots. i already have four pairs. think i need some more.

- peacoats. love them. have a black one. want a red one.

- skinny jeans. hardley new but still loving them

- big sunglasses. even though it's nearly winter. who cares.

well i like cat gut hair ties

spadrilles, but classy ones I'm from the home of spadrilles
