Greetings Ladies:
energetic, daring and spontaneous.
March – It is that time of the year
when we become winter weary and
look forward to the coming of spring.
We want to shed our heavy coats,
scarves and boots (well maybe not
the boots) and jump into something
a little lighter.
The Vernal Equinox is considered
to be the first day of the Spring Season,
when the length of night and day are
approximately equal in length.
Even though March can seem a
little humdrum and boring to you
compared to all the excitement of the
holidays that just passed, there are still
some things that you can do to have
fun and perk yourself up:
AND before you drift off into
hibernation, let’s move on to
First, continue to be fabulous.
Second, learn some fun facts about
March that you can put into your
trivia bank:
In times past, March, instead of
January, was the 1st month of the year.
This all changed in 1752 and since that
time, the holidays now end one week
after Christmas, with the onset of the
New Year, instead of 3 months later in
March. (Can you imagine partying for
3 months straight?)
March is the time of year when
animals start to wake up from
hibernation.
Third and most important – Retail
Therapy!
If you need an excuse to try a
little retail therapy, here are several
outlandish and fabulous reasons to
visit your favorite mall in March!
This year Easter is in March, a
good reason to get a new outfit or

20th - what better way to celebrate
than with a new spring outfit.
