It's Spring...well...almost!

February 26, 2018

special fit

The fashion mags are in and the blogs are posted–Spring is going to be a most interesting season.


So, what’s hot and must have? First, the raincoat. Yes, the trench is a classic, but this season it’s all about the feminine; a ruffle here, a ruch there.


Then there’s the jacket. Whether for work or play, it’s the focal point to pair with your favorite jeans or pencil skirt. From there, it’s all about the layering–diaphanous fabrics over basic camies and tees; textured cardigans; and, fringe…and yes, fringe is still here.

And then there’s color. Lots and lots of color. Vibrant hues, soft pastels, and splashes of red, royal blue and white are everywhere.

What better place than Shirley’s Designs & Alterations to get a sneak peek at these delightful trends?!? That’s right, you can see it all from March 1st – March 10th when that premier private fashion icon Doncaster will be in the shop.

Doncaster is once again on point with the current styles–and the classics–that will brighten and update your Spring wardrobe. Why not make your personal shopping appointment today? Call today, (510) 836-3062, to set up a convenient time to browse the racks.

Here are just a few pics of what you’ll find in store.
