Good Afternoon Darlings.
Alright, so it's been one of those days. It was sunny until around 15 minutes ago when I decided to go outside, and of course the minute I went outside, the sky turned gray and the temperature dropped to 2 degrees, well maybe it was more like 65, but I assure you it felt like 2, and there is now a 90% chance I have frostbite. In Los Angeles. Oh, I'm only kidding. It's more like an 80% chance.
Anyway, the cold weather had me thinking all about how eager I am to jump into Spring. Don't get me wrong, I am definitely a winter kind of girl, but after a long winter, Spring is always refreshing. But, Spring doesn't only mean nice weather, and boys in swim trunks- no no. Spring also means that some of the world's highest ranking designers will be releasing their Spring/Summer collections into stores.
I have a feeling that this season is all about light. Don't be fooled by the billboards. I repeat, do not be fooled. As I drove down Sunset the other day, I was surprised to see that all of the haute-couture brands seem to be designing things in bright orange. How Ghastly.
Bright orange is a color to be avoided at all costs. It clashes with bloody everything. I assure you, unless you are very, very tan, or your name is Eva Longoria, you can not pull off bright orange. Well maybe that's an exaggeration, but you all get the point.
So, back to what I was saying. This season is all about light. Pastels? Yes Please! I mean, what is more stunning than mixing white, and a pastel? Precisely Nothing.
I've also noticed floral-english-country-sofa being a theme in loads of clothes being shipped to stores around the country. Just like these Current/Elliot boyfriend printed, low-rise denim shorts: http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/193790
Now, I can't say I'm personally a fan of grandma-curtain clothing, but it would definitely look adorable if your style is urban/i-pretend-to-be-a-hippie.
Now, in conclusion. This Spring. Go pastel. Not orange.
Love Always.
