Geometric...and eccentric. These words came to mind when I was viewing Diane von Furstenberg's beautifully bold Spring 2011 collection. The rounded retro sunglasses paired with fiery, candy-apple lips add a kick to these already pumped-up looks. The rich green pastels and royal blues are two pop-color hues that enhance any sleepy head's complexion. White backgrounds contrasting these colors in every look have the potential to make even me look tan-ish!
Another wonderful thing-silhouttes. What would all of these kooky graphics be without a super-awesome shape to walk along with it?? Just as spring should be, these outfits are breezy and flowy with a shape that narrows from top to bottom. Who wouldn't want to walk around in the parallel universe version of trendy pajamas (unless of course you are a jeans person like I am...but that wasn't really the point ;))??
Want to try these looks out? Pair a repeating, geometrically patterned top with a similar one with different colors or lines. Add a solid color belt to tie the look together or, if you are daring, add the candy-apple lips to take your inner retro to the next level!
Warning: If you decide to choose obnoxious prints that are not exactly soothing to the eye, beware of the decrease in companions and acquaintances you may experience. Going for an all over print look? Add a piece of colorful jewelry whether it be a necklace or bangle or two or three or four! Whatever you decide, have fun with crazy prints and optically confusing a few people!!!
