Jeremy Scott’s latest collection was a direct mash up of a Lalaloopsy doll, a rainbow rave and Leeloo from ‘The Fifth Element’ .In other words, it was PERFECT! I loved all the pastel and raver quality behind each look. Also, those gold moon boots (3rd from the bottom) are EVERYTHING! I’d wear those …

Thom Browne‘s latest women’s collection was set in, what looked like, a pool locker room. The collection was a profusion of trompe l’oeil Stepford Wife suits and dresses in pastel shades and flashes of the signature red, white and blue stripes. What I loved about this collection was the trompe …

Have I told you lately how much I love Gingham? Sure it looks like a picnic table, but there’s something very spring and innocent about the check pattern, especially when it’s in pastel hues. Something 1960’s Brigitte Bardot about it… anywho, Mr. De la Renta passed away this past week …
