This week we have a load of great spring style posts,Holier Than Now checks out cape coats, if you’re strapped for cash Out of Order gives the perfect 45min spring skirt tutorial, so cute! And girly clothes not your thing? The Demoiselles has a great homage to genderbending unisex looks. I’ve been thinking of doing a couple of days in menswear myself. Well, as soon as I learn how to tie the half Windsor knot.

MILAN FASHION WEEK: Prada Fall/Winter 2010 Collection
[Images via Style.com]
The Italian winter must be colder than we thought, for Prada’s F/W Collection was thick with billowing layers of knit, wool stockings, fur-lined leather and dark tweed. Twirl-begging A-line dresses donned frills and prints while mustard yellow, tan, and geometric patterns updated a 70’s aesthetic with pointed-rim glasses. Prim and proper Prada was (with a naturally quirky edge), emphasized by slick and simple high-styled chignons.
