Carolina Herrera Dress of the Season Oh big ouch I want it, it looks like a painting

Stop. I can not keep the information straight. I have gone from Spring 2011 to Pre-Fall 2011.
I looked at Proenza Schouler 's Pre-Fall show yesterday. Thinking about their very well received Blues, Yellows and Greens in innovative fabrics to make sleek, body hugging amazing dresses. The PS1 purse, the PS2 sophmore handbag, I say no more. I love where they are taking their story. Their woman have very exciting lives, and the clothings respond to your need at the down of a hat grab and go. They never disappoint with their textile work and knits. I love the jacket this fall that looks jumpled together. Cheers to them. http://nymag.com/fashion/fashionshows/2011/fall/main/newyork/womenrunway/proenzaschouler/#slide16&ss1

Researching Color & how it is in the fashion world

I am a person who pays attention to detail. When I see people in bright colors I wonder what made them buy that coat, why that color, and if it was a brand thing. This week I ran into some good color at the dog park. Jean, a woman from Liverpool England had on a Puff coat in a daffodil yellow with a gold crossover purse. She looked bright, cheery and a lovely person.

Here is the bright lovely Jean in her coat with gold crossover bag, she bought it because it was bright and an uplifting color.

Soon this gentleman walked by and I stopped and asked to take a picture of his coat and why he bought it. It keeps him warm and he likes the color
 Kaycee had just received this jacket in honeysuckle pink for a family member and they had this right. Honeysuckle pink, the color of the year. She looked super cute in this
color. (I am think most would with the brighting qualities to the light around you. Bright colors reflect off skin tone and voila you are wearing a little blush,


After the gentleman in the coat had walked by this guy walked by and Jean was floored, here was the exact same color within a couple of minutes.
