As I'm sure you're all aware New York fashion week is taking place right now for ready to wear spring/summer 2012.
As I was looking through the show photos, I felt uninspired, yes Zac Posen has wonderful dresses, Tommy Hilfiger played up the plaid look and DKNY were adventurous introducing bright blue and red patterns, although all of these shows looked interesting I didn't feel excited about any particular collection. Until I stumbled across Betsey Johnson.
I hadn't heard of her before but I looked through the show photos and I felt excited and inspired. I love her collection, I would describe it as playful, grungy but yet still girly. I think what pulled me in was the use of the girly colours, pinks, baby blues and floaty pretty styles but then a leopard print bra peeping through and a lightening bolt earing, the contradicting styles shouldn't go but it works so well.
Even the more rock looking styles still keep with the girly style but with a little more sex appeal.I think this is an exciting, playful, fun collection which makes me want to play-up my pretty summer dresses with a little rock!
I'm also a sucker for shoes and the shoes featured in this collection are gorgeous, definitely worth coveting the lace-up booties with a ribbon tie.
xoxo
