Spring '08 Fashion

Today's dreary weather has provided me with a chance to browse the spring ready to wear fashion shows at style.com.

Show Favorites:


3.1 Philip Lim does a perfect pencil skirt

If you can't wait for the new spring collection to become available, get the look now with fcuk's gold high waisted pencil skirt















Rodnik




















Alexander McQueen




















Alexander Wang

Build your own version of this look easily with any oversized white blouse, leather belt, and a fitted black skirt. The key to making this outfit work is in the skirt. Find one that fits perfectly above your natural waistline and is made of a stiff enough material so that it hides the bunching of the shirt underneath, especially around the tummy.

Try these items from Old Navy to create the same look for $1000 less.
1. men's white short sleeve shirt, one size too big
2. leather belt
3. black a-line mini skirt






United Bamboo knows how to liven up a boring pair of khaki shorts with a simple button up t shirt in shimmery gold. Talk about expanding your color palette!




















Luella creates a hip t shirt dress. If you have breasts, I recommend you steer clear from this dress form because you will most likely not achieve the perfect a-line shape seen on the runway. This dress design is for the slender bustted.


















As you can see, I am looking forward to warmer weather so that I may begin sporting geometrically conscious dresses, shirts, and skirts in my new favorite spring colors: gray, white, black, and of course GOLD.
