chris benz s/s 2012

I'm trying to eek out every last bit of summer as I see it drawing closer to fall.  These pieces from Chris Benz's Spring/Summer '12 collection add just the right amount of color and pop to reassure me it's not over yet!  Plus, nothing is better in fall than a navy blazer with a hint of mint peeking out or a pop of neon...

dripping in jewels

Fenton's S/S 2012 collection was shown amidst the backdrop of the fab Four Seasons Hotel.  The amazing collection of rhinestones and feathers were juxtaposed by Fenton's signature spikes and tough chains.  Utterly perfect.

merci for the mint yves

yeah, I know I got a tad carried away here- but how can you not want to wear every look in this collection??  not only are the jewel tones an amazing departure from normal Spring collections, I have to say that Stefano Pilati has made mint the must have color of the season!  (aren't the shoes fab too!??)

nifty fifties

February's L'Officiel Paris got it right when they had Luis Bianchin pose for photographer Alexander Neumann.  Bianchin's tanned skin and shocking lip color makes you want to head for somewhere exotic and warm while the clothes give us the perfect balance of practicality and whimsy.

coming around to christian

I'm not normally a huge fan of Siriano's work.  But his Spring/Summer 2012 collection was fabulous in my humble opinion.  Modern but with classic streamlined pieces- with just enough color & danger to be exciting.
