Big Bold Prints for Sonia Rykiel, Proenza Schouler and Suno 2011 Resort Collections

I'm not much of a print person unless the prints are bold and interesting and the latest resort collections include many designs with geometrical and architectural patterns: it's all over Sonia Rykiel and Proenza Schouler's collections while Suno is inspired by ethnic prints. So, I'm quite liking this but... the dreaded jumpsuits are still everywhere even though they look better than Tyra's!

Louis Vuitton Takes You from The Yacht Club to The Boardroom and Back with This Resort Collection

We often think about purses and accessories when we hear the name Louis Vuitton but this Resort 2010 collection shows another side of the French label: flirty dresses, beautiful little jackets... very pretty and high fashion. There is not much color but the black and white make these pieces very classic and wearable outside the yacht club.
