French Connection for Spring 2012

by fashion pulse contributor

PreviousNext

Click on the slideshow above to preview seven feminine, bohemian, yet still quite modern looks from French Connection’s Spring 2012 collection. Refined, neutral-hued, tailored pants are sure to be a staple, while the color-blocked dresses and blouses are equally as wearable. Maxis and tunics reminiscent of Woodstock-like festivals are a fun blast from the past juxtaposed with classic white sheath dresses and lots o’denim. Don’t forget to check out the crossbody, satchel, and tote bags, each a perfect way to accessorize your look!

Forever 21 Pick of the Day: Color Blocked Leatherette Handbag, $24.80

by fashion pulse contributor

This Forever 21 Color Blocked Leatherette may just be the perfect purse for fall. Fall colors tend to be more sober, which is why I cannot get enough of these rich autumn tones juxtaposed together. The orange adds just enough color to pop against  an outfit, but the bag still remains in a neutral positioning overall. For a price of $24.80, you simply can’t go wrong with this one! With a shoulder strap and hand strap, this is practical, functional, and sophisticated.  Color and color blocking were all over the runways, and now it’s time to get this look in your everyday wardrobe.

Paris Fashion Week SS12: Balenciaga, Balmain, Mugler

Balenciaga

The show began with short shorts and boxy shoulders, with jackets reminiscent of  high school letterman varsity jackets. Nothing says Balenciaga more than strong shapes, so not suprisingly, Nicolas Ghesquière drew a bit from the past as well as androgyny, paving a distinctive spring 2012 path with high shine fabrics,color-blocking, and asymmetry.

Balmain

Pastel blue, black leather, a floral motif and delicate embroidery can seem so contradictory, yet young talent Olivier Rousteing blended them together for a gorgeous union. For SS12, Balmain kept the short hem and body-hugging dresses, but slowly introduced sweeping maxis and trousers as well.

Mugler

With Lady Gaga on board, Thierry Mugler may just have created its own set of provocative little monsters.  There was a fair share of cutouts and a great deal of sparkle, however balance was maintained in the neutral wash of the color palette. Still, we wouldn’t mess with a Mugler woman- she’s tough, strong, and certainly knows what she wants.

Rebecca Taylor does it again! Beautiful color blocking taken to a new level with the fresh combinations of neon and neutrals, such as, yellow, blue, green, pinks, and grays. Figure-flattering silhouettes are always feminine and chic in bold statement colors and prints.  Taylor steps away from the traditional polka-dot prints and adds a twist with heart-shaped polka dots, which add a punch of  new personality. From the floor length maxis to her structured sweaters, Rebecca Taylor knows what is stylish and beautiful. The whimsical, flowing fabrics make you feel like you’re on the beach or walking through a farmer’s market on a summer day.
