Cheap Monday’s S/S 2012 Runway Video

Click here to view the embedded video.

Cheap Monday is starting to trickle in, and per usual, the Swedish brand is offering up some outstandingly comfortable gear for this spring. What we like most about the Spring-Summer 2012 collection is the trendy details (isn’t it always in the details?): bold colorblocked stripes, unusual necklines, and quirky silhouettes. Consistently presenting a high-fashion runway show each season, the brand’s new pieces were presented with nostalgic and romantic sensibilities hinting at the naivety of our parents’ youth. Watch the video above to scope out the whole collection.

Stylist: Naomi Itkes | Make up: Anya de Tobon
Hair: Erika Svedjevik | Set design: Tonie Zetterström | Music: Erik Haal
Casting: Marcus Pettersson | Show Coordinator: Lotta Andersson

P.S. Mark your calendars… A week from today, January 31, Cheap Monday’s Autumn/Winter 2012 show will be streamed live on Style.com at 10 am EST!

The Joyrich Spring 2012 video is full of citrus goodness, gangsta edge, and quirky details. It’s quite the hodgepodge but we definitely dig it. While we start to battle snow, the LA favorite will keep our spirits up as its fun new collection trickles in. Scope out the upcoming pieces in their video with playful fun and pretty people.

Wildfox SS12: Even Cowgirls Get the Blues

Wildfox is a master at creating storyboard lookbooks and while we have fond memories of the Wildfox girls as witches, Marie Antoinettes, and rockstars, this upcoming spring the brand is heading out west for a Cowgirl ditty. While these are some of my fav shots, there are plenty more on the Wildfox blog so I recommend checking out the whole prairie cowgirls-meets-shootout-meets-dark funeral cowgirls plot that eventually turns into modern Americana kitsch (I guess that’s why they have the blues?).

Ready to Tango? Pantone Releases 2012′s Color of the Year

Pantone just released the 2012 Color of the Year! Their pick is vibrant and packs a punch. We welcome Tangerine Tango with open arms, and admittedly, have already been sporting variations of the reddish-orange hue on our lips and nails for several springs and summers now. The color is especially striking when paired with offbeat neutrals (Elie Tahari SS12 above left) and also when used as a sort of neutral itself… hard to believe, but match it against neon and tangerine holds its own as an anchor (see Nanette Lepore SS12 top right). Can’t wait til spring? We’ve got some pieces to rendezvous with until the color takes center stage next season. Below: the Loretta Dress – *LA Boutique; the For Real Shoe – Jeffrey Campbell; the O Clock Signal Watch – O Clock Watches; the Watercolors Scarf – *The Extras.

Reality TV star Whitney Port is well known for her classically feminine style. Earlier this spring, she was spotted rocking a pair of floral Dr. Martens, proving that even a brand typically associated with 90′s grunge bands can have a softer side.  Get Whitney’s look with Pascal 8-Eye Boot or the Victoria Flower 1460 Boot, both available now.
