I love your season must haves and season wrap up columns. I look forward to them each season. Your guidance in the must haves ends me up with season favorites. Mine were--the white watch, bright assessories, cracked patent, ivory flats, longer length tops, clam diggers and cropped cardis to go with DRESSES. Your tip on having contrasting buttons on my white trench was spot on. Bye, bye lab coat! Thanks again. This column helps me transition from my favorite season into the rest of the year. :) Thank you, Angie. I love your season must haves and season wrap up columns. I look forward to them each season.

Also the white watch and clamdiggers became my favorites after seeing them on YLF. Thanks Angie for introducing them to us!

You were spot on. There are loads of affordable white watches around, Patricia. The picture of this particular watch serves as eye-candy because it’s beautiful.

Do you have more affordable items for your readers? As nice as that white watch is…I would never pay $1,195 for this item. Do you have more affordable items for your readers?

Bright blue, wearable yellows and oranges, grass green - all of them. I can wear bright colors with white and denim - my two go-to bottoms. I always feel cheerier when I'm wearing a splash of bright color. Especially with white accessories. This is a great list! I still have two months of summer (in Texas it's almost always summer), so this is a good list to remind me what to look for on the sales racks. Thanks, Angie!

I cannot WAIT for those awful things to go out of style. They make the legs look shorter and have no trace of femininity at all. Down with the gladiators!

Soon, I think! Everything else on your list lives happily in my wardrobe EXCEPT gladiators, tunics, and white accessories.

It's a Hindi word adopted by the British colonists during the Raj, and still used as a slang term in the UK (and the British diaspora). @Niecey: “Pukka” simply means “proper.” It’s a Hindi word adopted by the British colonists during the Raj, and still used as a slang term in the UK (and the British diaspora).
