Sometimes I get lost in these thoughts about what would be a great dress or what would be amazing shoes. Then I am reminded that I am mortal and can only wear within my means. But when I get a certain vision in my head it consumes me. I literally will think of nothing else but that article of clothing for days. There will always be the dresses that got away. I'm looking at you, vintage fruit print sheath or green tulle sack.
What I think makes me calm though is knowing that I have an excellent skill in adopting the aesthetic or idea from other clothes. It will never replace the original article but it certainly tries its best.
Below are some looks from Jason Wu's Pre-Fall Collection. I know, I know that kid again who did the first lady's dress. In my mind though he will be know for first inspiring a sophisticated young lady. Before my discovery of him, I was blind to young women looking elegant. He has created recently a youthful, professional, eclectic, and always appropriate woman. I love every time I see his designs because they are approachable. I think that his latest collection is the best at capturing new decade attitude of a women.
My favorite looks are the last two which demonstrate a career focused youth girl but also is approachable. Both looks would be great with a canary yellow or emerald green pair of pumps for more color. Photos from style.com
