May was a casual but marvelous month for Zara; June is all about the prairie, preppy, and the whimsical. Easy mid-length denim skirts and crochet tunics belong in prairie-land. School-girl collared tops and plaid scarves are preppy chic, while oversized bows and bunny-print tops are unmistakably whimsical. Aside from the differing styles, the color palette is what binds all the pieces — soothing browns, denim, ivories, and khaki call for a serene Summer.
Isabel Marant led the pack this Spring 09 with a grungy, French country collection. Now floral tea dresses, chunky platform sandals and boyfriend trousers are all the rage. To create this look it should be a little bit 90's, a little bit boyish and a little bit prairie. Once pulled together, it will be the kind of outfit you wear all summer long.
Thebudgetbabe is wondering: Is it Spring yet? No, but her airy prairie look sure makes it look like it is. In order to fight the cold, she paired her dress with Hunter Wellington boots. They toughen up the look and lend a British twist. Neat how the dress matches the blue fence!
Here's what she has on:
Congrats to thebudgetbabe!

Check it: hearts aren't just for Valentine's Day and love letters. I'm urging you to add hot heart prints to your wardrobe. These aren't sappy heart prints; think colorful graphics and bold statements. I'm smitten with this Rory Beca Rothko Zipper Back Top ($246). The abstract heart shape and purple palette is right up my alley. Come on peeps, time to add more love to your life!
