I’m not one who enjoys matching, but when it comes to Peter Pilotto and Christopher Kane I couldn’t help myself.

What Why Where: Black, White & Blue
You know when you just bought something, you can’t wait to wear it, and you’ll do everything in your power to make an outfit work based around that one thing? That’s how I felt about these Elizabeth and James boots. I had my eye on them for some time, but when Shopbop had their Friends & Family sale, I was like “Carpe Diem!” and I now own one of the most impractical items a Chicagoan can possess…white boots.
A Look At Resort ’13
I often find myself categorizing Resort and Pre-Fall as “the forgotten collections.” No one makes a big deal about them (especially compared to Spring and Fall) so they’re rarely remembered. I mean seriously…has anyone ever been like “Remember that khaki Givenchy collection from Resort ’08?” No. But they’ll probably say, “I still can’t get over the panther-print from Givenchy Fall ’11” (it was pretty awesome).
So anyway…let’s give the “inbetween” collection known as Resort a closer look, shall we? I decided to do a superlative-style set up for this one. Hope you enjoy.

Currently Obsessing Over: My Moda Operandi Wishlist
It’s no secret that I am absolutely obsessed with the only website where you can literally buy straight from the runway–Moda Operandi. Check out your favorite looks on Style.com and buy them a few days later on Moda Operandi…can it get any better? Now that’s fashion forward!
Here are the pieces I’m loving from the currently available Fall 2012 collections on Moda Operandi.
Mary Katrantzou is a designer who has intrigued me the last few seasons. Basing your brand on these crazy prints is quite a risk…but there’s people like me who can’t get enough of them! So, does anyone have $31,000 to spare so I can get this dress? 🙂
May or may not have already ordered these leggings already…
It’s Proenza…need I say more? Okay I will. That jacket will one day be mine (even if I have to do questionable things to obtain it).
If I can no longer get my hands on Proenza Spring ’10 (best. collection. ever.) Peter Pilotto Fall 2012 is the next best thing. The colors and prints are incredible and I’m loving everything about this outfit.
Haven’t been skiing in a while, but I’d definitely reconsider if I get to wear Fendi.
