I may have a thing for the color blue and Honor definitely fulfilled my blue filled dreams. There some light pinks and burgundy shades but these caught my eye. Loving these. And the flats, our feet will be soooo happy next spring!

From the looks of this show, I’m guessing the whole utilitarian/military with a feminine twist is here for another season. As a tomboy (only at heart because we all know I love heels too much) I’m totally thrilled that grunge is will be around for at least another year! Kudos and a million thumbs up to Marissa Webb…I loved EVERYTHING!

Ok, there’s a little confession to be made here… This line was completely foreign to me until this moment. That hardly discounts the creators because boy am I so happy to stumble upon them! During the fashion season, I shuffle through thousands of runway pics online until something catches my eye. From that moment on, I view the collection, research, and put together my faves! My love is SO real for fashion you guys.

 

Anywho…according to their website, COTW (Creatures Of The Wind) was created in 2007. The first collection debuted at NYFW back in 2009. Still a fairly new line, they’ve already been featured in Vogue! I’m loving their current collection for its’ playful sophistication (yep, I made that up!) It seems very 1950’s rigid but very wearable and funky.

There’s more….

 

I have a penchant for expensive things but the budget of a pauper. So when it’s time for me to ACTUALLY pull the trigger and buy something, you better believe I’m making a well-thought budget conscious decision. Although, there are several items I don’t mind spending a little extra money on and those pieces are usually wardrobe staples. Think, classic and timeless but when it comes to trends…I’m definitely the cheap chic chick!
