Runway Crush: CHANEL Spring/Summer 2015 RTW Collection {Watch This!!}

Chanel is such a girl's-girl label. No matter a chick's personal style...Chanel brings the effortless 'IT' appeal to every look!

This Spring/Summer 2015 Collection is dopeness - stand out pieces include colorful prints paired well with the classic, but recharged tweed looks and retro vibes. The overlaying shoulder details on tops and blazers are refreshing. Chanel accessories are always bananas...the microphone purse and different style of flats are really cool.

The theme of the show looks like 'girl power' with major flare. Fashion makes a statement for the cause. Karl Lagerfeld is always amazing!

Watch This!!

....save the best for last. =D

Fashion has to evolve...

Fashion Week is almost over and it's okay.

I read a few reviews about the Spring 2015 RTW Collections that showed. A review that stood out to me in particular:

'In fashion, staying relevant is the hard part' by Robin Givhan

Robin Givhan is a well respected fashion critic and writer.

As I picked TFC's favorite collections, the thought 'where is fashion going?' was constant. I respect all of my fellow fashion designers on all levels. The process it takes to create a cohesive collection or your own kind of fashion is a hell of a process.

Fashion Week sure felt reminiscent of previous seasons...a lot of those pieces popped up again without new life.

Clearly it wasn't all bad, because I have more faves to pick. Though it is true: in fashion, staying relevant is the hard part.

That's why knowing the industry and growing with the evolution of fashion & technology {which is huge} will warrant a realistic fashion life span. Sometimes you have to pull back and regroup, but always test {TEST} markets.

'Too trendy' makes room for new authenticity, which can become trendy but we must continue to grow with our original aesthetics.

.................

I can't wait to share the trend-forecast.

There are some dope pieces and style themes for next spring that a TFC should be excited about.

Then we'll go full force into fall/winter fashions and style!
