Tory Burch Resort 2013 Preview

While I sit here gushing and obsessing over the Tory Burch Resort 2013 collection, I must admit that this is by far my favorite collection, which is why I chose to do an individual piece on her designs. I hold a very special place in my heart for Tory while she is one of the most creative women in the fashion industry and I own several of her pieces. She knows exactly what she is doing and designs the most magnificent ensembles while constructing them with the best quality fabrics and exquisite patterns and prints. (Maybe I am biased because she wished me a Happy Birthday last year!) Every time I walk into one of her stores my heart flutters and I feel like a kid walking into a candy shop. As I view these outfits, I seriously want to scream with excitement. Tory Burch has done it again and I cannot wait for these pieces to hit stores! For now, check out my favorites below.

NYFW Spring 2013 Preview

While New York Fashion Week has come and gone, I took some time selecting my favorite pieces from seven genius designers. While the elimination process was crucial and insane, I have finally selected the most beloved styles. The collections featured at NYFW were absolutely incredible and I wish that they would fill my closet by Spring. Check out the most adored looks below. 

Michael Kors chose to add a touch of sparkle and gold with white shorts and metallic heels. The blouse is super glimmering and an incredible way to add spunk to any outfit.

Jason Wu goes classy with a black and white fitted top, black skinny ankle pants and black heels. He chooses to pop the outfit with a white and leopard tote.

BCBG opts for a flawless sheer, lace black and creme frock with black heels that wrap around the ankles. Flawless and perf! Crushing over the wavy locks and simple black clutch.

One of my fav designs was composed by DKNY. I love this simple and carefree gown that fits the body completely. I admire how creative the design is while it also offers a collective feel.

DVF chooses bold and funky colors and patterns (per usual) which I totally gush over! The gorgeous dress above showcases a coral hue, white and turquoise. I love the bit of sparkle at the bottom of the frock that totally adds something special.

Kate Spade has proven that 50's inspired fash is what is going to be hot! Grab the mint collar blouse, checker capris, pointed toe flats, cat eye sunnies and nude tote. So Mad Men!

Victoria Beckham creates this chic and hip white mini with a clean and effortless cutout. Paired with the sassy nude knee high gladiators, this is totes amaze! I die!

Space & Form Shared With The World (Especially Us)

Donna Karan; 2004 CFDA Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, whose vestments have clothed President Bill Clinton, Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, Oscar winners Gwyneth Paltrow and Charlize Theron, and an infinite score of elite luminaries; showcased her Spring 2012 collection amidst the pageantry of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. Below are seven spectacular ensembles courtesy of the spectacular ensemble which is DKNY's fabulous public relations contingent.

 

Fuse this imaginative skirt with an effortless black blouse, simple wedges, and elaborate jewelry such as the necklace above.

This intricately detailed skirt should be paired with an uncomplicated jacket and heels.

This three toned brown dress, perfect for an afternoon lunch inside a friend's garden or an evening barbecue upon their deck, can be elevated with an energetic party necklace or mellowed with a sophisticated tortoise watch and wedges.

Compliment this sexy little black skirt with caramel colored lining with a top or jacket of the same color and a black flat or or caramel wedge.

This provocative gown will instantly ensnare everyone's attention. Accent with crafty jewelry or diamonds and a high black heel.

This intelligent tan colored jacket and skirt will define amazing when paired with a darker tan belt, strappy heels, and wedges. DK, you have once again exquisitely flattered the shape and soul which composes the core of every woman.

Magnifique à Paris

Paris Fashion Week has wrapped with Balmain, Christian Dior, Louis Vuitton, Tom Ford, and more rocking the runway before the eyes of celebrity and fashion's elite.  Below are a few of my favs whose ensembles were as major as the ones they were watching.

I always love Katy Perry. The Smurf's star has curves, which she totally knows how to own, and blue hair, which she couldn't have styled more flawlessly. Can we just say smurfalish!

Mila Kunis rocks a classy white coat and simple lace dress. I absolutely love this look but I wish she would have worn her hair in a bun, more resembling Audrey Hepburn.

Jessica Alba sparkles in an adorable blouse and skirt while sitting front row at the Lanvin fashion show.
