i really had no expectations before the standing armed spring/summer 2012 preview but i must say, i was absolutely blown away by the collection! the ivory, coral, and gold colour scheme was perfectly complimented by the neutral brown, tan, and green hues. the use of lace, mixing of patterns, and eye catching silhouettes are what really made this collection stand out for me. i also loved how the fashion show was done with models standing around the perimeter of the room, the perfect way to get a good look at each piece.

it was a really fun evening, a big thanks to social chair for the invite. now i’ll have to save my pennies to purchase that bright patterned maxi skirt (in the first collection photo) next spring!

    I'm always envious of the fun events you get invited to Alicia… Although it's probably best I was far from this one, based on the photos I've seen, I'm sure I would have been making a wishlist of the entire collection! I love the gamine look you wore, so cute and French 🙂

    You're such a beauty! I love this outfit, so classic yet modern at the same time. Very chic. I'm SO excited to see all you girls this weekend! Can't wait to surface from all this schoolwork and have some fun (and, of course, raid your selection of swap pieces). Hope you're having a great week love 🙂

    You looked so chic Alicia. I love the black and white ensemble on you with the pop of red. The collection actually looks gorgeous, such beautiful details and textures. Definitely wishing I'd been able to make it!

    See you this Sunday! Can't wait 🙂
