Daily Inspiration: Rodarte and Yves Saint Laurant Spring 2012

I was going to post an outfit today but I didn't have time on Monday and I was too lazy yesterday, ha ha...so I'll have to photograph today's outfit unless something insane happens.

Today I'm posting some more Spring 2012 looks that could also work for fall because of their color palettes. First up is the Rodarte collection. I love how they used Van Gogh paintings as inspiration and the dramatic makeup used. And as you all know I LOVE wearing purple, so that makes me love this collection even more.

Next we have Yves Saint Laurent, once again TONS of purple, YES! There are a lot of separates which is great because you can then mix and match all these great pieces together for many more looks. I'm glad to see the jewel tone trend is going to continue because those are the types of colors that look great on me.

    I love both of these - I was really taken with the Rodarte collection originally but the YSL one is so rich and beautiful.

    I love anything and everything from Rodarte but the only way I'm getting my hands on their designs is if they do another line for target (fingers crossed!)

    Happy belated birthday! I missed it yesterday. Fail.

    Jewel tones are good. I should buy some more of them. And then I'll be trendy in the spring time!
