Trend Board: Pretty Pastels

This year was lit aflame with neon hues and fluorescent brights. While we're still big fans of the statement colors, there's a new trend approaching and it's not as loud. The Spring 2012 runway shows were painted with subtle, muted and elegant soft pastels and pale shadows. They reminded us of sorbets, Easter eggs, Jordanian almonds and weddings. Since we can't go cold turkey and ditch the neon just yet, we suggest mixing and matching some of your old pieces with your new pastel additions to the closet.

Snapshots from Paris.

We love Paris, (who doesn't) and dreamt we were front and center at the shows this past week.  To recap, Spring 2012 hit the scene with material mash-ups, lace, sophisticated silhouettes and color blocking.

In honor of Paris Fashion Week and partially just so we could ogle over the various designer runway collections, we curated a post of our favorite looks. 

Featuring (in order) Valentino, Chloe, Jill Stuart, Alexander McQueen, Vanessa Bruno, Valentino, Preen, Jil Sander and Vionnet. For more loveliness, go to Style.com and search through the looks yourself.
