Would You Wear Ann Taylor Now? Fall 2009 Collection
Ann Taylor has been known to be your moms store for her secretary clothes. Not so much anymore with their new head designer (formerly from Club Monaco) in tow and millions of magazine ads that express the new Ann is less work and more play. Instead of the focusing on boring basics, they did it up with accessories, ruffles, hints of color, boyfriend blazers, oversize sweaters and larger-than-life pearls.

Fashion Illustrations By Danny Roberts
The only think I love as much as fashion is fashion illustration. I'm so excited I found Danny Roberts on etsy.com who sells his illustrations for $20 - $200 (and there's a few pieces for $1,000). He also sells this organic, hand painted t-shirt for $42. For more info visit his blog Igor + Andre.

Backstage Pics @ Ashish Spring 2010 Runway
I've never heard of the UK clothing line Ashish until this morning, looking at backstage pictures. There have been many runway shows that I though was not for me, weird or too couture but I've never flat out said "I don't like a collection" until now. Haven't we seen this look from the young 80's wannabees walking around Soho, NY last spring. These oversized t-shirts and tanks are not flattering on anybody even if they are sequence. And when will the large printed, cheesey fraze shirts die.

Ralph Lauren Spring 2010 Collection
Ralph Lauren tells an interesting story with his spring 2010 runway collection. Focused on the depression era, Ralph gets very detailed dressing the models in newsboy hats, vest, distressed boyfriend jeans, floral frocks and mens suits. Towards the end of the collection he gets a little glitzy in blue flowy dresses and gowns. "I believe in the resilient spirit of America. Hard times seem to sharpen our capacity for idealism and our optimism that tomorrow will be a better day. I am inspired by the character of the worker, the farmer, the cowboy, the pioneer women...I have always admired the honesty of their work wear..." Ralph definitely nails this collection!
