Currently Obsessing Over: Proenza Schouler Evening Clutch

Happy Friday all!

I’m going to spend my weekend starring at these Proenza Schouler evening clutches so I thought you could do the same…

Not only is is the perfect size, but it’s a great structured silhouette and I love when bags can be worn with or without the strap. Plus, I could literally find a reason to buy every color (but let’s be honest, the neon yellow is my #1 pick).

Which one’s your favorite?

Spring Pleats

Whether you like it or not, pleated skirts and dresses are making a comeback for Spring ’12. I’ve owned some pleated pieces here and there but I’ve never wanted more pleats in my life until this season. With various lengths, colors and even prints…there are such great pleated options out right now!

Prada Spring ’12 especially blew me away with the pleats because the color combinations were just unbeatable. Let’s be honest, when does Prada NOT kill it? Exactly…

Short skirts, mid-calf dresses, asymmetrical skirts, maxi dresses. Bright, metallic, pastel, neutral. They’re all pleated…and they’re all awesome. Here’s some of my favorites.
