A Collection Worth My Attention

Borrowed from jandymonroe.com

(The skirt I thrifted.)

I only recently discovered that Macy's did Impulse brands, one of which was Matthew Williamson last year.  I thrifted a skirt, tags still in tact, from the Garment District in Cambridge a couple weeks ago while out with a friend.  I loved the color and the feeling of the fabric.

And now Alberta Ferretti has collaborated with Macy's for Impulse.  My knowledge of Ferretti is truly limited, but I definitely love this capsule collection.  My favorites being all the tops that incorporate bits of lace (can you tell I'm on a lace kick?), and the cropped lace capris.  Everything else in the collection is of course gorgeous as well, and I was highly inspired by the brief video.  I would love to feel like that girl with my own personal admirers/paparazzi following me almost wherever I go, and taking my picture (this of course idealistically assuming that it is a controlled and safe situation).

Needless to say Ferretti is now permanently on my radar because the style of her clothing definitely embodies some of my key ideals when it comes to fashion.  Those ideals being: sophistication, a ladylike approach, just enough skin revealed without being overly provocative,finished hems, feminine shapes, fantastic color palette, and etc.
