mad about color...

for those that have been reading my blog for a while...you may have picked up on the things that i am pretty obsessed with...leopard...shoes...vintage...and color...i have to say...i have been pretty excited about all the color on the runways...on the red carpet...so...when i quickly flipped through my march issue of instyle magazine...my heart did a double flip for an article entitled "mad about color"...the pictures just popped with vibrant bold colors...these scanned pics by "moi" do not do them justice...

modeled by the lovely liya kebede...styled by the sweetie pie brad goreski...photographed by giampaolo sgura...raf simons's collection for jil sander..well...it does not disappoint this color loving girl...as the opening remarks state "proving simplicity can dazzle when lit by a rainbow"

take for example this silk blouse, peplum & wool-blend pants...but it doesn't stop there...the color...



goes all the way down to the shoes...giuseppe zanotti design suede wedges...um...yeah...i want them...



and this gorgeous color? i have been obsessed...is it emerald green? kelly green? whatever you choose to call it...the green & coral...what a lovely combination...no?



"bold color is always easier when you see it in a recognizable shape...it takes courage to wear...but what an exciting challenge"

  1. I'm really excited about the colors I'm seeing from the Fall 2011 shows...ochre, russet, teal. Brights overwhelm me but those...oh la la!

  2. The new season colors are wonderful...the spring colors remind me a lot of different sherberts! They are really great!

  4. Gorgeous! That pink button front top jumped off the screen and I didn't even have to read the post (though I did!) to know it was Jil Sander. Love it.
