NYFW: Favorites from Monique Lhuillier

I wasn’t blown away but I did (as always) like Monique Lhuillier’s Spring 11 collection.

Victoria Beckham Spring 2011 Ready-to-Wear

I loved this collection. Clean lines, soft hues, cinched waists. For some reason I’m not very into Victoria Beckham, but I must admit that I do love her designs.

An Homage to White After Labor Day

wedding-gown-tumblr

Supposedly we are supposed to stash all things white from our wardrobes after Monday (save white button-downs or creams). While I agree there is no place for a full bright-white ensemble in 20-degree temperatures, I disagree that after Monday all whites should be shucked, packed and put away. I think my distaste for this “rule” comes from living in New Orleans for four years. There the weather can change on a dime and no one would mock you for wearing a chic white dress in mid-October if it were 75 and sunny (which it often is). While I am excited for Autumn, Summer is my favorite season and I plan to hang on to my white pieces a little longer…
