Spring Colors, Not Spring, Now Available

Deepest, darkest February (especially with a few warm days thrown into the mix) makes us long for springtime. But instead of waiting until April, just glance into a store window or two. Green seems to be the flavor of the month: J. Crew carries a chino blazer it's calling "grass: and a skirt in "leaf," while a parade of sweaters, skirts and shirts in the Hecht's windows on Wisconsin are headlined "mixed greens."

Don't like green? How about turquoise, which looks as if it's going to have a banner spring season. Pride of place at Kate Spade just recently was held by two handbags - one green, the other a South Beach turquoise. You say neither one flatters you? There's still a lot of coral out there, and pink seems as if it's going to be a perennial - at least for another spring. -- Janet
