With spring just around the corner, I’ve been scouring the net for warm weather duds. I love dressing comfortably, and theres no better way to do that than by taking an alternate spin to the classic tee. I love this over-sized nautical top from Whitley Kros. The buttons down the back are really cute.

This knit dress from Japanese designer Tsumori Chisato is also really chic. I could see this paired with flats or heels for a clean and simplistic look.

Stella McCartney’s Fall ‘08 collection is incredible. I love how she incorporated felt into the line with voluminous jackets and cutout mini dresses. I want the entire second outfit from head to toe.

These adorable wooden bags were probably my favorite part of the entire show.

Boho looks are definitely beginning to creep back onto the runways this season. I loved the Anna Sui fall collection. It was such a beautiful mash up of rich color and eccentric prints. I especially enjoyed these outrageous embroidered boots.

The Gucci collection was also pretty amazing. Inspired by Russian folklore, the line featured adorable peasant tops and fringed riding boots. I love how they layered thick sashes with skinny leather belts.





Nicolas Ghesquière never ceases to amaze me. Each collection he creates is pure gold in my view, and his pre-fall line is no exception. This time around he decide to go prep, and I love this layered sweater and shift mini look. The brooch definitely makes the outfit, though. After looking through the whole line, I think these square tipped booties are my favorite creations. His shoes are always so fresh and inspiring.

I don’t know if it’s a new thing or what, but I love how style.com is showing a selection of designer pre-fall collections. Out of all the collections displayed, Missoni’s is by far my favorite. With Mary Tyler Moore as it’s muse, the collection features an adorable fusion of mod and preppy styles. My favorite piece is this amazing short-sleeve sweater, which wonderfully demonstrates the label’s signature knitting capabilities.




Keith Haring is one of my favorite artists, so you can imagine how excited I was to see his influence in Alexander McQueen’s latest McQ collection. My favorite piece is this Men’s t-shirt. Unfortunately, the print wasn’t used in any women’s garments, but I still love it none the less.
