one of the things that’s nice about having this blog is that i can come back whenever i’m in the mood for inspiration to browse through all of my favorite collections. but there are so many cool looks coming out, that sometimes i have a hard time keeping up! which is why i’ve resolved to make my best effort to share all of the pretty collections that i find instead of just saving them onto my computer desktop only to be forgotten! case in point: the other day, rhiannon posted a few looks from the orla kiely resort 2012 collection and i got so excited that i just had to share my top picks! i’m planning a trip to hawaii this year, so i’ve been racking my brain about what fun looks i’ll be sporting while traipsing around oahu. i love that there’s this perfect mix of fun and easy sun dresses with very smart little coats so that i can transition back into the rainy spring weather that will be awaiting me when i return to the bay area. in some ways, it’s the reason why i love resort and pre-fall collections so much. they have the perfect mix of both seasons which is just right for us california kids. oh, and did i mention that many of these pieces are already available online?

I love the styling so very much. So simple, yet so effective.
I love that first red dress with the perfect little button details. Gorgeous!

Super pretty! I would probably wear something a little more casual for Hawaii though. XD

I fell in love with this collection the moment I saw it when it came out months ago. Everything is so pretty!
And, I’m just back from a work trip to Ireland, where a lovely friend of mine gave me her camel trench coat, as it was the wrong size for her! I can’t describe how gorgeous it is and the fit is absolutely lovely. Orla Kiely never ceases to amaze me, honestly!

WOW! I am in love with every look from this collection! It is sweet, retro, bright, and sophisticated. I love how put together all of the looks are. All of the red pieces pulled at my heart strings a little every time I scrolled down. Can’t believe I haven’t looked at this designer before. Thanks so much for sharing!

Camel and navy. Camel and navy. Camel and navy. Camel and navy. And TRENCH COATS. At the risk at sounding crude I would like to lick all these clothes. So sophisticated and classy! xx
