On the ground of T.J. Maxx and Marshalls finds, here’s some oh-wow eye openers and brows lifter stats right after NYFW.
- 5% count Labor Day as the official time to switch things up. It cannot be we are ONLY 5%
- 7% wait until the first official day of Fall, which is Sept. 22. All right girl, do it if you please and don’t complain if you feel the pariah, a leprous Martian at fashion week
- 35% of women retire their Summer wardrobes once the temperature dips under 70 degrees. If that were to happen in Miami you would NEVER retire the summer wardrobe, you would never have you winter looks and wish list since February. That is a language not spoken down here.
- 54% of women say they will wear white — and florals — after Labor Day. Yes, yes and yes provided the whites and the florals come from the right season, that is fall. By that we mean not Stella & Jean but Saint Laurent florals.
- 57% say pastels are fair game too. Let’s make a deal, if you want to be friends, we pretend not to have heard this one. Ok?
- 52% plan on wearing open-toe shoes through the Fall … hell yeah, even in St. Moritz. Prada and Marni platforms with ankle socks, peep toe evening Gucci t-straps and no panty hoses and the uber-chic Birks. That’s the way, haha, that’s the way to do it …
- 48% will keep shorts, sleeveless tops, and dresses in constant rotation. We don’t know anyone who would do that, right?
- 40% intend on rocking linen post-Summer. And here in Miami we are exposed to this offensive 40% all together.
