Ok, I’m feeling the need for some freshness after that editorial nightmare. I guess technically this color is more of a seafoam, but seafoamy fresh didn’t sound the same. What ever you want to call it, here are some great picks in that color:

Pastel skinnies are an effortless way to add color to your spring wardrobe. Goldsign, $190.

 

This chunky bracelet adds the perfect pop of color to a neutral look. J.Crew, $60.

 

Add an instant dose of spring to any ensemble with this pretty pastel clutch. Topshop, $32.

 

Pair these embellished platforms with a coral frock for a chic colorblock effect. Lisa for Donald J. Pliner, $275.

Delicate without being overly feminine, this silk blouse adds polish to your favorite jeans. Acne, $250.

Prada; Love and Hate but never in between

After cycling through a slideshow of Prada’s Spring 2012 collection I realized how diametrically opposing my feelings are for the designer….one season it’s love, the next it’s hate. And yet I never feel indifferent. I personally think that’s the sign of a truly great designer and artist; the ability to evoke emotion. With this season I felt both love and hate. I loved some of the flirty skirts and whimsical floral patterns. I hated the cars. I get it, it’s a statement. I appreciate that very much but from a purely visual aesthetic I like the other styles better. But as always, I’m right that’s just my opinion. Here’s a little of love and hate below, let me know what you folks think.
