I enjoyed a lot of the Marc by Marc Jacobs looks, although I’m not sure if it was because the clothes looked so warm and cozy, because they were colorful, or that the outfits were like big collages of colors, patterns, materials and styles. The combination and synthesis of grandma chic and girlie is really enjoyable here. These are grandma house frocks modernized for working women who enjoy comfort and and style! Here are some colorful examples I would totally rock.

And some mens styles that i quite enjoy….

These are two Band Of Outsiders designs that I enjoyed, also from New York Fashion Week. If I was on vacation I would want my boyfriend to wear the outfit on the left:) It looks chill and comfy and not too put together. The one on the right … it just plays to my love of preppy and Harry Potter!

Fall Fashion 2009! I have been looking at the coverage of New York Fashion Week and wanted to share some images that caught my eye. First off … Jason Wu. This first image didn’t catch my eye until I zoomed in, and noticed the intricate pattern on this dress! It is hard to tell exactly what the image of the pattern is, but I am thinking old fashioned scenes of people dancing and I even think I see a scene of a proposal. So maybe these are scenes of courting?

 And then I looked further throughout the collection and found some interesting jewelry pieces. I really admire his use of jewelry here because it is not overwhelming or hidden, it is showcased beautifully. The earrings are so dynamic and have so much movement to them (they look like they dangle quite well!).
