When I decided to resume blogging, I made a set of rules for myself to obtain in keeping this blog as fresh as possible. One of those rules was to avoid redundancy. We all know that fashion week is in full throttle, and since I don't follow runway all too keenly (it can be disappointing), what comes to mind is the streetstyle of the many bloggers, editors-at-large, models off duty, etc. But we've all seen those photos that go in heavy rotation in the blog-o-sphere! It would be beyond redundant to post them... But just to avoid a blog standstill, I wanted to keep you elated for now with my favorites of New York fashion week. And knowing me, I just might do the same thing come London (going on now!), Milan and Paris . Enjoy!
Do we sense some repetition here? Remember last fall - can you see the heavy contrast? I guess Celine/Chloe-esque beige minimalism has met it's ephemeral endings, rainbow colors and prints dominate as far as the eye can see! Other recurring themes seem to be proportion experimentation (and heavy layering), monster-sized clutches, hair in the brightest of hues and polka dots à la Marc Jacobs. And have any of you caught on to the sea of plush furs (here, and on the runway)? Luxury is making it's way back, I see. Is that enough to make an economic prediction? Hmm....
What other escalating trends have you noticed in streetstyle and/or runway?
