Fave Shows From Spring '14

Hi everyone, 

For my first posting as a blogger, I wanted to share my thoughts on Springs best shows. I know it is a little bit late, but I just can't stop talking about Spring-wear, so I figured I would get it out here! I always get excited when I look at my iCal and see that Fall is just around the corner. This means (1) I can start wearing my cozy sweaters and big scarves (that always resemble a blanket), and (2) the Spring shows are coming up! The New York and Paris fashion weeks are my favourite because of all the street-wear photos I find online. Searching online during this time kind of makes me feel like I am on a shopping spree. There is so much to see and everyone (well, most people) just look so chic! 

Chanel. I think this word just automatically brings joy to most people. Watching the show on Style.com as it is happening is so exhilarating! I can't stop thinking about how Karl does it. How can Karl Lagerfeld be such a genius and come up with so many new ideas every season, while still keeping the effortlessly elegant nature of the brand? This season, the fun and bright colours mixed with the trademark Chanel tweed made the collection young and exciting! Although I cannot go out and buy the full collection because, well, its Chanel, I am dying for a classic blazer with a twist to it. Maybe one that looks like the below picture... 

This crop top and skirt that looks like it is made out of paint palettes is so fresh and eye-popping, it almost does not seem like something Chanel would do. I can see how Karl deff had fun with this coming spring season! Chanel normally has a kind of black and white feel to it so I was super thrilled when I saw lots of colour. Although it will not be so thrilling for my bank account in a few months. 

Next, A.L.C. I have a slight obsession with this brand for the simple reason that it is so easy to take off the runway and put onto my body. The sleekness combined with the more intricate pieces makes the collection wearable with an edge. Some of the pure, crisp white pieces are so eye-catching, especially when mixed with more colourful hues. I will definitely be asking my "guy" at Holt's to watch out for THE A.L.C. spring arrivals. I know, good things come to those who wait, but I can not seem to wait for spring to arrive. Can I hibernate through the winter? Thanks!
