new york fashion week - spring 2011

What was hot 20 or so years ago gets thrown into the recycling bin put threw some sort of machine and pops out years later, looking quite like it did before, yet with some new little twists.

I found evidence of this scouring through this years 2011 New York Fashion Week runway shows. Below are some of my favorites that I feel were greatly inspired by the trends of yesteryear.

I want a really big fat wallet so come spring 2011 I can buy some of these beautiful clothes!

how high?

The return of the high waist is one of my favorite comebacks. High waisted skirts are bursting out of my closet. I don't really own many high waisted pants, but I think I need too. High waisted pieces are really great at accentuating your waist. I am a big lover, take a peek at some of my favorites below...

My favorite is the last photo. I love the look of a high waisted skirt with a bra top. It's sexy yet not too revealing. I might have to try the one :)

I honestly just recently discovered Ruche, their ads were popping up on my facebook all the time & I finally clicked on one. I am sure glad I did because what a lovely discovery! Ruche is a vintage inspired online boutique filled with apparel, shoes, jewelry, accessories & even some eco-friendly goodies!

Their Spring Summer 2011 lookbook is extra pretty. Take a peek below at some of my favorites!

i love...

Extra long, no need for a shirt, hippie hair. Love it.

I like to think I have hippie hair myself, it hangs well below my bosom & that's just how I like it.
