Chris Benz Spring 2011

❀I'M BRINGING SPRING BACK ✾

60-70's Inspired Spring Blooms Cold doth not sting

Warm late sixties- seventies hues, driving you're parents nostalgic all over again- though amalgamating new modern sensibilities. The shoes are sublimely designed by Alejandro Ingelmo. The punchy prints and feminine skirts and cardigans make perfect attire for residing at a beach house ~ howbeit a tree house is more the likely in my case.

Deep turquoise on leather dresses and shoes, intense floral prints on cropped trousers and sky-high wedges, Spring cannot arrive fast enough!!

Rodarte SS11

GOLUPTIOUS GOLD

The Mulleavy Sisters, have piqued my interest at New York Fashion Week SS 11, with the usage of leather pieces, textures of earth tones of whites mixed with golds, light browns and tans, merged with blues and dark plums, finding inspiration from their North California backyard, displaying the surburbia wood panelling and redwoods, radiated also to the footwear.
