Sunday Inspiration...Long Coats

Happy Sunday everyone! One of the biggest trends for Spring '15 is long coats - it seemed as if they were on every single runway! As a recent college graduate, I can't exactly afford something that walked down the Marni runway (or any runway essentially). However, a girl can dream! I made a set of some fabulous coats that can inspire us while we're out thrifting or looking in department stores!

The big inspiration: pastels and neutral colors, along with graphic prints. These coats will be wearable at any time and will also become a staple in your wardrobe!

The set contains coats by Margiela and other high end designers, as well as a few that are much more reasonable. Here's the link on Polyvore if you'd like to check it out in more detail:

Paris Fashion Week, Day 4...

Bonjour and happy Saturday! Since it's a weekend post, let's keep it short and sweet. Here are my favorite looks and trends from Friday's runway shows!

There were some lovely patterns! I love the geometric and florals ones that dominated. They're such an unexpected pop of color!

I feel like a broken record but TEXTURES!! They're having a huge moment! I love the chunky knits, quilted effect, and lattice work of some of the fabrics used. It looks so luxe!

Metallics are definitely big in Paris. I love the combination with other trends (metallic textures, metallic fabric in loose silhouettes, and metallics mixed with street style).
