Marc by Marc Jacobs S/S 2012 runway

I've been a fan of Marc by Marc Jacobs bags for a while now (see here and here and here). After seeing mallhaciel's tweets about watching MBMJ's S/S 2012 show I was keen to have a look too.

Well, colour me impressed. I'm always attracted to clean lines, and I'm loving the colour combinations in this collection.

Here are my picks:


A nice twist to colour blocking. Navy is a key colour in this collection. Not a typical summer hue but it works with the contrasting bright colours.


I love this ensemble, simple, elegant and fresh (how cute are the shoes? more on that later).


A perfect look for summer.


Peplum one-piece - I like! And the navy + orange combo really works here.


Not 100% sure about the silhouette, but I like the relaxed look and black + soft orange is pretty.


The orange trim makes the basic trench a lot more interesting.

The shoes in this collection really grabbed my attention. Seeing the front-on shots I was expecting them to be flats or kitten heels. To my (slight) disappointment they are much higher, but they still get a tick from me. I wonder how long it'll take for the "inspired by" versions to appear at Wittner and co?



Of course I can't write a post about MBMJ withough mentioning the bags.

In the "maybe" column, I present the cube bag.


It's a fun concept but I'm not sure if I want to carry a bag this size around my wrist ...

There are a lot of totes in this collection. Regular CCM readers may notice that I'm more of a shoulder bag gal, but I do like this one.


It may be the perfect bag for someone who needs to bring lots of work documents home at night ...

And this is great for travelling or a trip to the gym.


Back to bags that are more "me". This is very cute.


I'm not usually a fan of patent leather bags but this may just change my mind.


I really like the simple makeup on the models (by Shiseido). Let the clothes do the talking.



Saving the best till last. This is my favourite look from the collection.


I want the whole lot in my wardrobe, NOW.
