Resort 2010: Karen Walker

These are my fave looks from Karen Walker's resort collection. Loving the asymmetric ruffles, the drapey, collapsed puff sleeves and the fabrics! Molten bronze, navy lace and sheer spots. Lovely. The jeans are also too cute.

Resort 2010: Christopher Kane & Elise Overland

CHRISTOPHER KANE

Kane's resort collection has been receiving quite a bit of commentary already (picked up crazy-fast by the awesome Patty Huntington) - regarding his apocalyptic prints. Those, and the sky-scapes I've picked for here really are quite beautiful. I am a total sucker for any apocalyptic/sky/galaxy prints - I still so so so regret not getting one of the stunning pieces from Ksubi's Summer 07/08 collection "Said The Rainbow To The Apocalypse" - one of those classic shopping regrets. And that's pretty much the best title for anything ever.

ELISE OVERLAND

Love the slick leather here from Elise Overland's collection - especially the paneled pants! Am obsessed with panels right now - have used them a ton in my garments at Uni this semester.

Resort 2010: 3.1 Phillip Lim

Love the mash-up of black and white lace, and gold embellishment. Crazy awesome textures and patterns (which themselves have a modern look - refreshing when it comes to lace).

As you know, I'm obsessed with dressing up grey marl pieces at the moment - so am loving the sweater teamed with pants that look like liquid gold.

Resort 2010: Burberry Prorsum

Every season I love Burberry a little bit more - especially the softer, earthier silhouette and fabrics that Bailey has been doing the past few seasons. These looks from the Resort collection are outstanding. Amazing, all white outfits that don't look prissy, high maintenance or clinical. Quite the opposite. The jackets are amazing as well. Don't even get me started on the gorgeous socks/heels combo - I'm pretty much obsessed with socks at the mo - have been wearing them with everything.. Much to my little sisters dismay.

Resort 2010: Alexander Wang

Loving Alexander Wang's new resort collection. He has picked up that riff on athletic-wear that he started in Spring - same goes for denim (which he always amazes me with). Wang plays with the "All American" sportswear classics in this collection. Love the (pre-fringe) Abbey Lee in the lookbook too - she only seems to get more and more gorgeous. The natural hair and beauty look used is stunning too.

I'm obsessed with grey marle at the moment, and there's a ton of it here. Great takes on a fabric that is so typically associated with sportswear/trackpants/etc - so there s an almost tongue in cheek juxtaposition of fabric with design. Check out the long, goddess dress in the center! I would seriously live in the poncho/cape/hoodie hybrid on the left.

Im pretty much dying for one of these diamond-cutout sweaters. Amazingly graphic yey would be super wearable and trans-seasonal. Nearly love them as much as the spring jumper - this one I would give my first born for. No joke.
As usual, his denim pieces are to die for. Quirky, badass twists on iconic garments - dungarees?! Yes!! Speaking of glassic garments, I'm seriously coveting that refined bomber/varsity jacket in the centre. Looks like grey marle and tan suede. Heaven.

Resort 2010: Rag & Bone

I haven't been particularly excited by the Resort collections so far, but Rag & Bone's I like! Very very wearable but still cool and different. Drop crotch cashmere thermal leggings?!?!? Yes please. Love the inky colours used too. Varying denim shades, soft grey and sharp black. So my go to palette.
