Snow day!

[QE] Designs has what you need to stay stylish and snug in the winter weather. 

There are still a couple of months of frosty weather ahead so you'll probably want a warm outdoorsy set. What better than rainbow pastels to brighten things up?

• Arctic Vest in 16 color combinations, Alpine Sweater in 9 colors and Denim Mini in 10 shades with just a subtle pastel touch come together in one package
• Coordinated Footless Socks in 9 colors with match or contrast trim and Boots in 17 colors with all parts mix and match sold separately from the Alpine set
• You'll find these on the ground level @ the [QE] Main Store. They're cleverly hidden in the back corner on the ground floor next to the spring outfits.

Cocoa Break

There are few things better than hot chocolate on a cold day. I had arranged to meet a friend at the Rainy Cafe, but as the shadows settled in, it became clear that she wasn't going to make it. Sometimes RL ruins the best of plans!

 I consoled myself by having another cup of cocoa. We'll chat another day.
