the fab anna sui

i hadn't ever really heard of anna sui before looking through the fashion week photos and boy was i so glad to have discovered her. her designs sure were out there but that's what i love about them. while watching the show on the fashion week website i loved how relaxed and fun her show was especially how much fun the models had on this runway. i also loved the how she chose to do the hair. for me it's definitely runner-up to the marc jacobs shows' hair even though its a bit "emo" it makes emo fun.

as for the design on the left i am a huge fan of of high waisted shorts especially with suspenders even if most tend to eat your vag alive. but besides these adorable shorts the whole outfit really fits together perfectly. another one of my favorite parts in the belt. i love how the tiny little bow fits perfectly over the buttons. also the shirt, the socks, and the bracelet bring the whole outfit with their pinkness so that the outfit in coordinated but not too matchy.

now before i talk about the outfit on the right let me just say how much i adore this model because of how much fun she had on this runway. i highly recommend going onto the official mb fashion week website and watching the video just to see her. as for the outfit, this just proves anna sui is out of her mind and i am loving every minute of it. now i think i or anyone else who isn't working the runway could pull it off but day-um this girl wears it well. if i were to ever see these pants on a mannequin i would probably shrug and look away but now i wish i could pull something like this. maybe it's the model or the way sui paired it with some great pieces especially the jacket and scarf combo which is one of my absolute fave pieces from the collection. its just so bright shiny and colorful and has my two favorite colors of the moment hot pink and yellow. this outfit just wows the hell out of me.

okay so i really am having mixed feelings about the whole zig zag pattern trend because part of me really wants it and the other half of me thinks its tacky and will fade in a few weeks. for now i am keeping away until i find one that looks fabulous on me which i doubt will happen or until i find one that comes with a matching umbrella. i mean how many people can coordinate their outfits with an umbrella which is why i think this outfit is pure genius. i hope that if sui releases the top in her spring collection that she will include the umbrella. actually i hope all designers will make matching umbrellas for their spring lines or not because then i might go broke because i know i won't be able to stay away from such genius.
