sunny disposition vs. sexy black

are you noticing a major trend in the latest street style? bold prints, two bold prints worn together, bright colors, super bright colors, and more of the same! the fashion world has a sunny disposition. i hope these cheerful looks rub off on me. ;-) conversely, there's a strong movement in the opposite direction - all black. black lace, black embellishments on black, and black and white pairings.... oh my! which side are you on?

print movement

The shows are displaying another exciting movement for S/S 2012: print mania and colors. Read: bright neon’s, bold purple prints, fuchsia lips. Rag & Bone, Proenza Schouler, and Prabal Gurung are all in on the game. See for yourself. Does this make you happy or it just me? It also appears that Rag & Bone is drinking the silk-pajamas-for-pants Kool-aid.
