Ignoring Phil: A Healthy Dose of Crushinism

Crushinism: (crush-n-ism) noun. 
A dedicated, religious-like belief to treating yourself and indulging in your [Crush]. Popular among young women in the Greater Boston Area, Crushinism is the brainchild of fashionistas and feminists.

Well folks, Punxsutawney Phil did it again last week. That little critter predicted not one, not two, but six more weeks of winter...Ten bucks says he's actually blind, and the shadow thing is a cover-up for keeping us bundled up through Fashion Week.... you know, with the general idea being that we'll fall harder for the Fall collections if we're freezing while perusing the look books. If this is in fact the case, little Phil deserves Anna Wintour's job...

Since it's not likely though that the illusive goddess of Vogue is leaving her post any time soon, I'm not going to start listening to Phil just yet. In fact, I'm going to embrace the Spring deliveries that are sliding onto the hangers at Crush. Forget the winter clothes, ladies, my new strategy is winterizing my new Spring clothes... I can't wait any longer.

So in honor of Phil and his undesirabe visions, here are some simple ways to winterize my favorite spring pieces on the racks at Crush...

So don't pine away for Spring, get into the swing now. Phil opinions need not interfere... he's a man, what does he know about Spring dresses? He doesn't understand how hard it is to wait for skirts and silks and sandals! And after all, my faithful fashionistas, it's the dreariest of days when we need the brightest of treats, and clothes, well clothes my friends, were meant to be worn and loved... every season.

Here's to new Spring clothes and February buying shows!
