Last month our Southwest Florida weather was still unpredictable. Some days it was warm, others cool, so it was essential to wear layers I could easily remove. Usually I chose a cardigan or jacket. But this day I decided on a lightweight puffer vest, and it ended up being a great, casual transition-to-spring outfit.
One nice thing is, a light vest is easy to roll up and stow away in a (larger) handbag or tote if you do at some point want to take it off. I bought this one in March or April last year, during the end-of-winter sales. So if you think you might like one for right now or this fall, the next few weeks might be a good time to invest in one. ~Janis Lyn Johnson

Jessica, I will have a look at the sites. Thank you for letting me know about them! ~Janis
I truly love your style. I live in Florida also ( Englewood) and it’s really hard to find the clothes that I love, here in Florida! Most shops and boutiques carry a lot of Tropical Island wear and I don’t necessarily like it that much. Once a prep…always a prep. Lol
I do shop on Boca Grande a lot and they have a great Lilly Store…and I do love Lilly!!
I shop a lot online at llbean and Lands End. I find some great Oxford Cloth shirts on eBay . Most of my bags are LV’s and Kate Spade. I also do a lot of online shopping for monogramed goodies! I will be coming down to Fort Myers soon to pick up my new puppy…..love it there and Naples!! So glad I found you…can’t wait to see more outfits!!
Thank you so much, Joy. So true, “once a prep…always a prep”! 🙂 Congratulations on getting a new furry baby!I appreciate you leaving your comment! ~Janis
