PFW S/S 14 Favorites

I had a blast following the Spring/Summer 14 collections on WWD.com. Paris Fashion Week was the last of "fashion month." Here is a collection of my favorite looks.



My favorite collection was by far Elie Saab. The floral accents, lace, and vibrant colors really caught my attention. I loved the floral print he used on the first dress, and the silhouette is perfect! Some more faves were this gorgeous white a-line dress and red gown.



There were a lot of gorgeous florals that filled the runways. I loved this pastel and neon floral print that Leonard did. Another floral in the Leonard collection was this vibrant watercolor print. The floral appliques by Collette Dinnigan were also gorgeous.



I definitely noticed more white, black and gray on the runways than bright colors. I loved the white and gray monochrome looks. I can't wait to try out gray monochrome for winter. [White] Andrew Gn, Balmain,
Viktor & Rolf [Gray] Neil Barrett, Chalayan, Shiatzy Chen.



Sticking with the monochrome color palette, I loved these pastel looks composed of separates by Vionnet, Elie Saab, and John Galliano.


Last but not least, the gown. My favorites were by Elie Saab, Dior, and Leonard.

Overall, my favorite trends I saw on the New York, London, Milan, and Paris runways were monochrome white and gray, see-through stripes, colorful floral prints, vibrant red and cobalt, metallics, and windowpane print. I'm excited to incorporate some of these trends and recreate my favorite looks next spring!

MFW S/S 14 Favorites

3 down, 1 to go. I've been loving scouring through the spring/summer 2014 collections on WWD.com, and wanted to share my favorites from Milan.



Throughout New York, London, and Milan, I've seen tons of see-through stripe looks. I am falling more and more for this trend each time I see it! I love these white looks from GennyKrizia, and Antonio Marras.



I'm loving the metallic gold accents on these cream looks by Genny, Dsquared2, and Blugirl.



Unlike London where I fell in love with the pastels, in Milan, I fell for the bright blues, reds, and oranges on the runway. [Blue] Alberta Ferretti, Fay, Max Mara [Red] Fendi, Genny, Luisa Beccaria [Orange] Alberta Ferretti, Max Mara, Les Copains.



And how can I ignore all the gorgeous print-mixed looks! [Top row] Giorgio Armani, Stella Jean, Etro [Bottom row] Giorgio Armani, Missoni, Stella Jean.



Last but not least are my favorites gowns, by Luisa Beccario, Krizia, and Roberto Cavalli.

LFW S/S 14 Favorites

After obsessing over New York Fashion Week coverage on Women's Wear Daily, I decided to continue on by checking out the collections showed in London. Here is a look at my favorite looks and trends that I saw on the runways.



My favorite thing about the London collections were the pastels. Lilac was all over the runways and these looks from Burberry Prorsum and Sister by Sibling were to die for.



Next up was baby pink. It was gorgeous in monochrome at J JS Lee. I also loved the crop top and coat combo from Osman, as well as the sweater set and denim pencil look by Sister by Sibling



Now on to the baby blues. The geometric mix of blue and white turned this David Koma dress into one of my absolute favorites. And who could resist all those embellishments from Burberry Prorsum!? Last up was a pretty, ladylike dress from Preen by Thornton Bregazzi.



Leather is still going to be big for spring! My favorite dresses were from Lucas Nascimento and Maria Grachvogel, and just look at that pink leather jacket by Antonio Berardi! Perfection.



I loved all the metallic looks, especially these by Richard NicollHouse of Holland, and Julien Macdonald.



Gorgeous printed dresses filled the runways. I loved Temperley London's floral mirrored print fading into leopard. Preen by Thornton Bregazzi killed it with this bright geometric print. And we can't forget Peter Pilotto's beautiful dresses! This one was my favorite.



No fashion week round-up is complete without a look at the gowns. The collections presented at NYFW showed many more gowns, but the ones that did appear on London runways were equally gorgeous. Hands down my favorite was this lace and leopard mix from Temperley London, followed by this second gorgeous silvery embellished number from the same line. Anther favorite was a beautiful white dress from Julien Macdonald.
