There’s Pre-Fall. It’s almost a teaser for the Fall season, but not really. It’s just Pre-Fall. Sometimes it’s totally underrated and others, it’s just like…why bother? So today we’re going to take a look at the questionable, the best and the oh-so-fashiony looks from Pre-Fall 2014 (including one trend I cannot wait to get your opinion on), in my favorite superlative form.

Best prints: House of Holland

Best dress: Prabal Gurung (and even if it’s not one piece, it’s still a winner in my book)

Do you have any favorites from the new Pre-Fall collections? Most importantly, what do you think of gaucho pants making a come back? Let’s just say if I ever see anyone in camo gauchos with Marni Birkenstocks, I’m going to rethink my profession.
