well, speak of the devil ...

J. Crew recently debuted its Fall 2010 collection, and no surprise here, its been the subject of some stellar reviews. Jenna Lyons, how do you do what you do?

I especially love the shoes and outerwear this season - here are my favorite looks:

J. Crew is one of my favorite brands, if not my favorite. In the past two years, creative director, Jenna Lyons has totally revamped its image and popularity - their collections are consistently swoon-worthy, and they've even begun to step outside of their previously preppy confines, case and point:

Fenton / Fallon for J. Crew

Carrington Collar Necklace

Carrington Center Fringe Necklace

Carrington Crystal Chains Necklace

I'm fascinated by anything / anyone remotely related to MTV's "The City". It's a sick addiction, but what can you do? Therefore, I'm obliged to include Olivia Palermo's recent collaboration with Roberta Freymann in this post:

Le Marais Necklace

Hopefully this summer will continue to bring more interesting collaborations ...

I love little white dresses far more than their black counterparts.  

 Maybe this is due to the fact that they're harbingers of warm weather. I like to think it's because they epitomize femininity and grace.

These beautiful photographs are from an editorial entitled "Soft Focus" in the April issue of Vogue Australia. Nicole Bentley is the photographer, and the stunning model, Rosie Tupper, also graces the cover.

Apologies for my poor page-tearing skills.

p.s. I got a pair of these today! I've been wanting them for a while and they finally went on sale!

My pair is gold with a cream colored flower.
