NYFW: Jenni Kayne Fall 2013 Ready-To-Wear

Every season I look forward to one designer in particular, Jenni Kayne. I discovered her perusing Style.com many moons ago and continuously drool over every single one of her pieces {e.g. see this post, this post, and this post}. And have you seen these flats all over the blogosphere and the 'save' versions they've inspired {here, here, and here}? Girl knows her shit {pardon my french}. Here are a few of my top picks from her presentation this year, and make sure to see the full collection here!

NYFW Snapshots

I may have not made it to New York Fashion Week, but I've been following along on twitter & instagram like it's my job. That girl who 'hearts' every photo, yup, that's me and I'm not ashamed to admit it.  Here are a few looks I've been obsessing over from my favorite designers.

Jenni Kayne

Boyfriend sweaters & high-waisted shorts, bright poppy colors, neutral + tweed, and of course, stripes {that drop waist hi-low number - yes, that happened}. If I could have it my way, I could wear her fashions every.single.day. 

Marissa Webb

A former designer for J.Crew, Marissa Webb showed her true clothers at her first showing at NYFW. With a mixture of sequins, color, monochromatic styling and leather leaves us with a striking balance between masculine and feminine design.  This chic collection would make a great companion to the office!

J.Crew

Skunk printed pants & a banana print graphic tank. Enough said. 

So, let's hear it. What were your favorite looks & moments from New York Fashion Week?

country club chic

I am constantly drawn to pieces and outfits that transition easily from the work place to 5 o'clock cocktails.  Jenni Kayne's pieces do just that.  She describes her collections as, "Super-chic, easy to wear clothes...That's what I do.  Nothing tricky, nothing precious, just good clothes that work for you."  While her Resort 2012 collection has me day dreaming of a chic vacation where I do nothing but gallivant about; her Spring 2012 line has me wishing that Punxsutawney Phil never saw his shadow, leaving us with few more weeks of oddly warm temperatures.  Kayne summed up her Spring 2012 collection as, "...country club chic with a hint of athleticism...proper, feminine dressing with a twist."
