Warm fuzzy sweaters - oh my

I've been thinking about my sweater display in the shop for some time now. I got this suggestion and decided I'd try it today. I definitely like it better than the old display (folded and piled in the jewelry nook). At least now each style can be seen without having to move another. I just have to remember to keep the drawers open. Without thinking, I want to close them due to my hider tendencies, but have to remind myself that these are meant to be seen. As a bonus, they're situated right under the jeans. Viola, instant outfits!

Sweaters left to right: Wren black cashmere turtle neck on sale ($139), Twinkle striped cardigan on sale ($183), Dorothy Lee grey/navy ruffle v-neck cardigan on sale ($108), and Dorothy Lee lace panel cardigan on sale ($115).

What color grabs your attention the most?

Last week I brought in my camera to take more pics of the shop. This is the view I look at for most of the day - my front window. Over the past weeks, I've been experimenting with different dresses on the mannequin. The vermilion Yoana Baraschi dress in the picture has stopped quite a few women in their tracks as they walk by. I've also tried a black/green/fucshia/lilac Anna Sui floral watercolor dress, however my suspicion is that it's not as effective in drawing women into the shop. I like to rotate the display frequently to show the variety of clothing the shop carries. I'm thinking an LBD for the New's Years display... not so sure about black though.
