With a passion for one of a kind pieces I wanted to introduce my love for vintage and unique clothing to others. I did a bit of a search and destroy in an old cupboard that is filled with vintage clothing. I stumbled across these pair of jeans. With trend reports noticing that patterns are in I decided to bring these back.

Think whimsical patterns for this Spring Summer 2012. From bird prints to deers, fruit, feathers, florals, you name it - as well as tops, also to be seen with whimsical prints. You will see everything from blouses to dresses to tops to pants all sporting Whimsical prints.

With my love for fashion and design peaking at an absolute high, I thought that I would focus on a particular designer that has been the inspiration behind my creations. Oscar de la Renta has been an inspiration to me with their beautiful patterns, use of fabrics, colour, style as well as classic vintage beauty look. There is a timeless look about his designs that intrigues me.







Oscar de la Renta Fall 2012

Featured are some of my favourite peices from the Fall 2012 Runway show.  Their Fall 2012 show had an undeniably youthful edge. One candy colored confection after another, dresses were short and girly with little puff skirts and fitted tops. The silhouette is a favorite of fashion It-girls like Alexa Chung; another one of my style icons and fashion idols. A lot of the designs that were featured in this runway collection was inspired by social media. As the OscarPRGirl mentions social media in terms of image sharing has grown in the last few years which has prompted designers to look for inspiration from the ones who mean the most to them; the fashionistas.
