I know, I know, the pre-fall and fall collections have already hit the runway, meaning I am now months behind.
But, where I'm from, it's still considered winter and I can't skip over a whole season when I haven't even had a chance to enjoy the perfection that strutted down the runway for spring/ summer 2012.
So, I've posted a few of my favorite looks to sum up what 'warm weather dressing done right' will look like this year. 
Crisp, clean and elongated silhouettes done with soft fabrics in bold blocks of color.
To buy: a red dress for day, a bright tailored blouse, and an elongated blazer/ vest.
