Co’s spring collection is proof that LA knows how to do quiet elegance. I want it all, including a fun feather-skirted party dress. Check out the complete collection at Style.com.

As someone who fidgets when clothing is tight in the shoulders, I adore this silhouette from Calvin Klein for spring. (The fluidity of the skirt is the perfect juxtaposition.) I see extra sets of Swan Arms in my future. See the complete show at Style.com.

look 10: editor jacket, vent tee + little dude jean
While I love clicking through photos from fashion show after fashion show (and the commensurate dreaming), in real life I’m usually thinking about ways to edit my wardrobe down to the luxe essentials: pieces I feel comfortable in, yet look pulled together. Susie Crippen (one of the founding partners at J Brand) has been thinking about that, too. After a brief fashion sabbatical, she’s launched Crippen, a line of relaxed, trend free separates that are meant to serve as simple, elegant staples. I think she’s on to something: my only change to the looks shown here (from the fall 2013 collection) would be to swap the heels for flats. Surprise.
look 9: turtleneck sweater + sybil trouser
look 5: blanket coat, sweatshirt + little dude jean

look 3
I’m kind of nuts for Yeohlee Teng’s spring collection*. Look 3 could convert me to a dress-wearing girl, and I would love a pair of the flat sandals the models are wearing. See the complete Yeohlee show at Style.com.

* a good barometer for me is how the designer dresses, and i love what ms. teng is wearing at the show.
