Let's take a quick break from Fashion Week to focus on a different kind of collection, one made of newspaper! Yesterday's News, a brand of cat litter made from recycled paper, put together a do-gooder design challenge in NYC to create eco-friendly pieces made of paper. Designers like Samantha Pleet participated, creating over-the-top pieces that rival any dress made of fabric. Watch Samantha's entire process of creating her super-cute frock.

Starting tomorrow, Anthropologie will be launching an exclusive new collaboration series, called Made in Kind, highlighting collections by established and up-and-coming designers like Karen Walker, John Patrick, and Samantha Pleet. Priced from $84 to $470, the collections vary from ladylike polished looks to bright artsy-inspired printed dresses and tops. "The materials are meant to speak to you first, " said John Patrick, when describing his O by Organic capsule collection highlighting pretty pleated skirts and blouses. Our favorite pieces from Anthropologie's new capsule collections? Read below to find out, then click the slideshow to see more top looks from the exclusive capsule collections.

We adore this O by Organic orange pleated skirt. The crinkle detail gives it a unique touch and we love how the fabric is sustainable.
We'd easily wear this Gregory Parkinson tie-dyed dress to Coachella. The loose silhouette and intricate embroidery channels the perfect surfer-meets-bohemian girl attitude.
Every girl needs a sweet yellow dress in her wardrobe this season. Samantha Pleet designed one with just the right amount of femininity injected with a splash of edge thanks to the cute cutout detail.
