Darkness Falls

(click on photo to enlarge)

New Yorkers have switched from light summer clothes to their annual black August. A man, left, wears Chinese-style clothes, in the right fabric for the season. Echoing the sudden swarm of black are the imaginative fly-swatter sculptures by Terence Gower in the windows at Barneys, which include a fly, above; a dragonfly, below; a spider and a beetle.

Glad you posted. I missed you. :(

Anyway, black and grey are out with a vengance. Everything my mom is buying for fall is either/or. Even Lilly is darker for fall this year.

The only "pop" color I have really seen is red and sometimes purple.

Hope your job is going well.

Where I used to work black was always the in color no matter what season. I seemed to be one of the rare people that actually wore color.
