The other day I was thinking about how nice it would be to have a picnic in the nearby park with my favorite guy. What a great romantic date!

I asked you all to help me figure out what to wear, and started you off with this adorable Williams Sonoma Picnic Basket, $50. To see all the picnic date fab finds go here.

Let's see what you all came up with!

Undoubtedly, you've heard the name Martin Margiela. The Belgian designer has been a figure in the fashion world since 1985, when he started working for Jean Paul Gaultier. Prior to that, Margiela had worked as a freelance designer for five years after graduating Antwerp's Royal Academy of Fine Arts.

Just a year after leaving Gaultier, the designer showed the first collection under his own label. And the rest is history. Currently, Margiela has a boutique in the West Village in NYC; his shoes are also sold at Barneys. His clothing can also be found at online boutiques such as Yoox and La Garconne.

Side note: Balenciaga's main man, Nicolas Ghesquiere has said on many occasions that he wears Martin Margiela. In the fashion world, that is quite the compliment!

As you know, I am print-shy. But when a print is subdued and hard to read, it rocks my world.

I am in lust with this Lyell Pinwheel Burgundy Camisole, on sale for $100 (originally $165) for that precise reason. The pinwheels are so small, you can barely identify them unless you're up close. And the triple tier detailing at the bodice makes an otherwise-boring cami extremely girly. I also love the seriously thin straps that look like they're about to, sexily, fall off the shoulders.

Ah, don't you love how something so simple can rouse you sometimes? Gotta love fashion!

Many of you are dying to know who makes the dress Kate Hudson wore to Naomi Watts' baby shower. And rightfully so! It's airy, it's light, it's Puella's Mod Canary Dress, $172. I can't get enough of the square neck and the subtle leaf print. Tres earthy chic!

Katharine McPhee looks ultra feminine, especially standing against that colorful graffiti wall at Fuse Studios in New York City. Her chain halter dress is very chic. I only wish she had pulled some of her hair back so we could see her slender shoulders. And way to go showing off those stems, Katharine. Hint, hint, Jessica Alba.
