Now that sandal season is upon us, allow me to introduce my latest and greatest obsession: the patterned platform.
 


Prada hit the nail on the head last spring (below), and Charlotte Olympia followed suit this year (above), with her simplicity up top and whimsical prints below. How cute is that sheet music!



Now, we’ve been acquiring quite the collection here at LuLu*s, so just try and resist the printiest platforms of all!

Looks We ♥: Embellished Collars

Fashion | 12 January 2012

I currently have the biggest crush on oxford collars, which had recently turned into full on infatuation with the emergence of detachable and embellished collar micro trend. Both sharp and classy, playful and professional, this can be seen on the catwalks of SS 2012 shows such as Louis Vuitton. Plus, they really work out for any style; girly, edgy, prep, vintage, you name it! Come, take a journey with me into the world of collars. 
 
 
Oh pearls, they’re gorgeous aren’t they? They add this delicacy to and outfit, and remind me of pure innocence. I love the idea of rocking a full on monochromatic look with the accent of pearls at the neck. 
 
 

Who doesn’t love some bling around their neck? These collars have such a lovely vintage feel to them, I can just imagine the full a line skirt and mary-janes paired with these beauties. These are definitely some of my favorites pictures of these glittery masterpieces. 
 
 
 
The stud is my absolute favorite of them all, but that’s just the kind of girl I am. What really makes me love this trend so much is that it gives you the perfect amount of flare. It’s a genius idea to add simple intensity to such a basic piece.
 
 
 
 
I am a sucker for cats (Um, Cat Litas anyone?), so I love these last two picture I found. The piece de resistance is the statement necklaces paired with the collars. Gives it that extra oomph, you know? I almost feel a DIY blog coming on…

So are you guys as excited about collars as I am? Or is just a miss for you? Let me know!
