burberry. prorsum. // ss15.

Despite my coverage of fashion week being a complete fail so far, I obviously couldn’t NOT blog about Burberry Prorsum.  As per usual, Christopher Bailey (CEO) designed a collection that was a modern take on the brand’s classic British heritage.  Bold surges of colour, tulle, sheer fabrics and denim jackets dominated the SS15 season. And, of course, no Burberry show would be complete without a parade of standout trench coats (take note:  this season’s are no exception!).  Bailey also enlisted Burberry acoustic artist James Bay (#obsessed) to offer his vocals to the already stunning/standout presentation.  Finally, although Miss Cara Delevingne was noticeably missing from the lineup, she was sitting front and center with Kate Moss.  Right along with OP...a few seats down!

If you haven’t checked out the show yet, then, I’ve embedded if for your convenience.  My very brief overview truly doesn’t do the collection any justice – watch the video above and then take a look at a few of my favorite looks. Enjoy!

ksny. // behind. the. curtain.

For fashion girls everywhere, NYFW is everything!  But, you didn’t need me to tell you that… Between all of the September issues that I’m still trying to get through and the start of the new school year (i.e. readings on readings), I haven’t been able to follow along with fashion week as closely as I would’ve liked.  All I can say is thank goodness for Instagram – that’s pretty much been my go-to source for previews of all the collections.  Until I can sit down and watch all the runway videos from start to finish, Instagram’s 15-second snippets of the final runway walk will just have to do.  

One NYFW collection that I always, ALWAYS have time for, however, is Kate Spade.  It doesn’t matter what season it is, KSNY never disappoints.  Besides the ah-mazing clothes and accessories and shoes (!!!), I can’t get over how perfect and spot-on the theme (“Escape the Ordinary") for KSNY’s Spring 2015 show was:

“Fresh starts, taking chances and a feeling that anything is possible is my inspiration for this season.”  

- Deborah Lloyd (Chief Creative Officer)

Utterly perfect, right?!  Since odds are you’ve already seen photos and Insta posts of the greatness known as the KSNY S/S15 collection, I’ll leave it at that...and maybe just post a few of my favorite looks. :)

@katespadeny // Showtime! #behindthecurtain

@carly // Swooning over that scalloped bag!

@mackenziehoran // Quirky accessories + minimalist nails.
