So this blog will be a bit different for me...just my random thoughts on the world of clothing... Sounds bizarre, but hang in with me here... =)

So I went out to the mall to grab some summer polos Monday night. And when I got there, searching for some summer styles for my lagging wardrobe, the pleasant customer service person directed me to the clearance rack. On the plus side, I did get some great summer polos at a great price. =) But at the same time, I always scratch my head this time of year...

Does anyone (other than a retail economist) get this...the bringing in of the fall clothes while it is still the middle of summer? I don't know about you, but with highs in the 90s today, the last thing I'm thinking about is buying a nice leather jackets and some new jeans. Of course, back-to-school time is approaching...but it still seems a bit early to be clearancing the summer clothing. Maybe I'm just not ready to think about fall and rain just quite yet...trying to hang onto summer... =)

That's about it for this blog. I tried to warn you. =)

In all seriousness, though, it will be pretty warm today. Forecast high of 92 in Portland...just one degree shy of a record high. Hope you're all enjoying that summer sunshine...oh so nice here in the Northwest.
