Don’t you love it when fashion week is such a big blur that collections go under your radar, only for you to discover them later on when you can actually appreciate them? This Organic by John Patrick spring collection was pretty so-so for me when it showed in September, but in September I’m really only inspired by dark colors and fall things, so it’s no surprise that a collection full of pastels wasn’t the most exciting thing in the world. Now of course I love it. I’m still a little bit in Easter mode so I’m especially into the light colors and the long, ’90s church-going mom dresses. Also the huge hat/cropped blouse outfit is pretty amazing. Not that I could ever pull it off.

wow, that hat is unbelievable!
I can see you getting married in a luxe version of the hat picture. x
Great collection! Unbelievable is really good word for this hat, for sure ;) Personally I’m in love with the first photo – lace, collar and shorts can’t do wrong <3
I love John Patrick – I live in his buttoned up shirts. Also I have some of my desert trip pics posted : ) http://iwasthegoldengirl.blogspot.com/
more coming.
wow. i am actually loving every single thing about this collection, and just saved all of these photos as inspiration. thanks for sharing :)
pastels are definitely associated with easter (and the hat makes me think of something someone would wear to the royal wedding – in a good way!) xo
Wow, I adore white and buttery yellows, and that huge hat! That’s the hat of my dreams:)
It’s rare in a collection with a hat that large that you can still look at it and think it utterly wearable. x
oh yes! good stuff. my friend designed the knits for his fall 2011 collection. it was a really big opportunity for her!
Oooh, I love these! Especially the look in the bottom right. Yellow has never looked better!
