in my eyes, marc jacobs was basically a slam dunk. ever since he came out with that amazing spring 2009 collection with the tilted boaters, i’ve been straw hat obsessed. so his fresh take on the trend is getting me excited for my next trip to the thrift store. and of course, he brings out all of the best vintage-inspired details with contrast collars and plackets, polka dots, scalloped egdes on perfect dresses and wearable separates. win!
erin fetherston also came out with a perfectly wearable collection. in fact, i might venture to say that i wouldn’t mind having every single piece to mix and match in my wardrobe. i love the giant ascot bows and sweetheart bustlines in the simple black, nude, and red color palette. and of course, she’s got pretty straw hats with polka dots accents, too. is it any wonder that i am in love?
another collection that i quite enjoyed was stella mccartney. she had a little splash of everything: giant botanical prints, lace and scallops, menswear inspired suit sets, and fun proportion play. but somehow, even with the drastic mix of ideas going on, she pulled it together into a fun and cohesive spring collection full of inspiration.
do you have any resort favorites yet?

I loved Marc Jacobs and Fetherston. I liked half of Chanel's and the other half I hated, so weird. I think I need to do a post on how turned off and then on I was on their resort collection! Also loved Diane Von Furstenburg – everything looked so classy and chic and comfortably slouchy… loved the stripes and all the espadrilles!
Oh, MJ. Yes please!!!

I totally agree about Stella McCartney's range – I adore all of it!
