Spring 2009 came early

Despite the bone chilling deep freeze that exists in reality world, spring has come for the fashion sphere. So here I am, in bed sipping chocolate soy milk and listening to the Kooks while I present...my tippity top picks for this season (so far, as I have seen):




Oh Rodarte, I loved you since I first met you when I was a young girl two years ago in front of the ol' teevee. The sisters have been leaning towards more apocalyptic chic-with the layered criss crossing of chaotic swaths and the flashes of tinsel green embedded in a sea of neutral tones. I really miss the draping though, Rodarte is amazing with chiffon and flowy things...so that's my personal suggestion



I like the short skirt and the rib hugging kick ass shape.




I usually don't like Marc Jacobs very much, but the high cinched purple waist does it for me



Proenza Schouler talked about how the velvet melted into chiffon and it was all about tearing it away and breaking it down






Erin Fetherston, this is a bit gothic for me(not to mention, scary model) but I like heavy fabric and complicated silhouettes
