I was so excited to view the Betsey Johnson Spring 2012 collection, as I have always been a fan of her clothing line. I have to say though, I was a little disappointed. I just found that it fell a bit short for me; that it seemed so 'been there, done that'. There didn't seem to be anything super new or exciting. It just mostly felt old and boring-ish. And like something you can find at your neighbourhood Forever 21.
Of-course some pieces I didn't mind, like this see-through trench coat. Makes me think of Tron's Gem. :)
I find Betsey's known for, and her classic style, is the super girly, floral prints, poufy dresses, skulls and animal prints look. Which I have nothing against. I like that she's so fun and colorful.
Betsey's classic style: floral print, and the poufy dress.
I absolutely LOVED her Fall Winter 2011 / 2012 Ready-To-Wear collection. I thought it was so perfect.
And her Spring 2009 collection. I've always been a sucker for the House on the Prairie Laura Ingalls look.
I've also, recently, been really digging the severe head-to-toe-all-covered-in-white style -- but in the style as pictured below, and not like Pamela Anderson. Did you ever notice how she's always drenched in white..?? I can't imagine how challenging it would be to keep everything so sparkly clean. I'm pretty sure the only piece of white in my closet is my one H&M tank top.
I should mention, the one thing that I did like about her Spring 2012 show was the accessories, hair, and especially makeup -- love that neon pink!
Anywaaaaaays... Nicki Minaj attended the show, in her colorful ensemble...
And I right away recognized the shoes she was wearing...!! Irregular Choice..!!!
Aren't they so fantastic?? I envision wearing these to a tea party. :)
You must check out their shoes:
Right now I have my eyes on these puppies:
xoxoxo...
ps: I love it that Betsey Johnson is 70 years old, and still looks like this. :)
