Whitney Port may have finally proven that she can be taken seriously as a designer, after she presented a collection that felt both vintage and fresh simultaneously. With quintessentially feminine cocktail dresses and heavily embellished shorts (love!), Whitney Eve amped up evening wear in a vibe that felt refreshed and perhaps slightly Cali. The shattered, kaleidoscopic prints and luxe velvet fabric felt unusually classic in jewel tones, a rare treasure to behold, when done well. Whereas the peplum blouses, textured cardigans, and laid back suiting are sure to become the go-to work wear for the young, modern girl, Port’s signature layering pieces were present, with the mix up of eclecticism and whimsical femininity that caught our attention. A keen eye like Whitney Port’s may be exactly what today’s girl-on-the-go needs for Fall 2012.

While the continued descent into winter has us scrambling for scarves and hats, we can still dream about putting on beach gear and getting sand between our toes. With a little help from our friends at Nautica, Spring 2011 will have great separates: woven jackets, ruffled tops, the crinkle-finish trench, embellished shorts, and the classic striped top, just this time with a chic sparkle. The Nautica swimsuits are also getting a fresh twist in the form of a rich, deep brown added to their usual red, blue, and white color palette. The relaxed looks will work great for casual days while the touch of shimmer and hardware can transition perfectly for the bonfire on the beach. So go ahead, walk into the party like you’re walking onto a yacht!
The collection will only be sold in the Nautica online store, and will be available from January through to early April.
