I recently purchased a leather "Coach" handbag on Sale (from the summer 2009 updated vintage collection). It is pale pink with a subtle hint of metallic in it. The sales clerk told me that I'd be able to use the bag year round. I'm reluctant to do so because of the color. Can I trust the clerk or did she just want to make the sale?

Yes colored handbags are the rage. You can wear a pale pink handbag with solid color outfits like navy, black, brown or gray.

If you are wearing separates, wear a solid color top, a blouse with pink in it, or choose a pink cashmere sweater. A neutral (khaki) color trench coat or jacket or the same color jacket or coat as your dress, pants or skirt will top your outfit off.

Can you wear python accessories all year long?

I'm going to a casual Christmas party. I'm wearing black jeans, black boots and a gold sparkle cowl sweater. Should I add jewelry or a scarf or something else to pep it up a little?
