Carven
Carven’s collection, equally as charming, revived 70’s style with tailored separates. A similar merry-go-round of colors brought in a playful element, while dresses felt a bit more precise. There is something very boy-meets-girl in the primary blue and red dresses and paisley prints courtesy of the biker jacket style thrown in at random. Jumpers and jackets alike beckoned preppy ease, yet the chunky wedges and bow-heels were pleasantly elegant without being overtly feminine.

Stella McCartney
Stella McCartney made flawless use of color and texture in a collection I’ll coin as “girly vintage.” If spring has a color palette, McCartney mastered it in powdery sky blue, canary yellow, smart white and hot-hot pink. I’m always a sucker for anything leopard (I can talk about that standout, oversized leopard blazer seen above for days), but the florals and brocades may just be my new mantra.This collection gives impulse to FUN, complete with its groovy flared pants, plaids and party dresses. Making a delightful occasion of fashion — now that’s a trend we love.

The Chris Benz Resort 2013 collection tells a story of break-loose travels. The narrative consists of playful ruffles, tinsel, and sheer layers highlighted in saturated brights and merry prints. The silhouettes mix oversized jackets and peplum blouses with cigarette pants and blanketing patterned skirts. Beading and exposed underskirts are some delightful key notes, as well as the irresistible, electric double-knits. If this were our vacation wardrobe, we’d find it difficult to pack light, as we’d want to bring it all!
