Can you believe that this is already the last week of January!!!!! Where did this month go??? I do love winter, even with all that I have to do to try and stay warm. In fact, once I finish this post, I'm headed out for a little skiing, I hope. But, I must admit that my thoughts have begun to turn toward spring clothes.
Everywhere I look, it seems that I'm bombarded with Peter Pilotto designs, and I really like what I see. The line is actually designed by the London based team of Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos. Not only do they have a high end line, they are now doing a line for Target. I guess that once you begin designing for Target, you have truly made the big time ;) I am being a little facetious.....actually a lot :) Regardless, their mix of prints is a feast for the eyes and nothing that we can't do for ourselves. I've posted some of the pieces that I really like, but if you would like to see the entire line, here's a link, http://www.target.com/c/peter-pilotto-for-target-brand-shop/-/N-55hsm . Just click on the Lookbook and you'll be able to scroll through all of the designs that they have done for Target.
I especially love the piecing possibilities of the above dress design.
The top the skirt, wonderful.
You may remember that Elizabeth of http://elizabethchandlerdesigns.com/ did a bag for us like the one above. You can find the directions here, http://rhondabuss.blogspot.com/2013/04/fabulous-free-pattern-friday_19.html
Love this look! Above and below.
Great mix of a bold abstract floral print with the black and white graphic prints below.
I'm off to see if Target will be selling those black and white graphic slip-ons. I think they are super cute and I can't make them!!!!
Wishing you some happy spring thoughts today. For all of us who have been dealing with an incredibly cold winter, we deserve a little break, even if it's just a mental one :)
Happy Monday!

Whoa! Some of those combinations hurt my eyes! lol All very interesting outfits; I'm not sure yet if I like them all or not - a sign of my age/generation perhaps? However, "things" tend to grow on me over time.
ReplyDeleteHey, I follow your blog!!! I've seen you do some pretty fabulous combinations. Don't give me that age thing ;) Have a great day. I here that it is cold in Texas, even Galveston is supposed to get snow this week. Yikes!!!
DeleteInteresting combinations....but a little too much for me :-) Tho I did see a piece in the NYTimes by Bill Cunningham re wool coats with several different fabrics together: wool, leather, suiting all in one coat. Stunning!
ReplyDeleteI want those shoes!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful print and colour combinations and the asymmetry of the little skirts is making me smile. Colour colour colour.
ReplyDeleteI will have to bottle some summer sunshine and send it to you as we've a morning full streaming in the window as I type. Keep warm.
I am so glad fashion has evolved out of the black minimalist period of the 90's. I never did like all that black and love all these prints and their combinations.
ReplyDeleteI must say I don't like these designs and I'm usually right with you on design inspirations. I like the cut, and the idea, but there is way too must going on visually.
