Shop Talk<br />
August is a time to close the door on summer<br />
clothes shopping and start clearing out our closets<br />
for fall fashions. While the heat may still be too<br />
high to wear them, now is a good time to start selecting<br />
sweaters, pants and hats for the autumn months—most<br />
boutiques have the latest styles on display and may even<br />
be offering pre-season sales. Also, we say farewell to<br />
Ella Posie this month, which delighted shoppers with its<br />
handmade accessories and gifts by local artists for three<br />
years. Be sure to stop in for a final shopping session!<br />
