It's Resort 2013 and the OC girl is living it up in the Sunshine State! It's a sun-filled vacation in the homeland of pastels, palm trees, kitsch, and Hemingway's cats. Pieces range from sophisticated Key West classics to more off-kilter takes on beloved Florida favorites. There are bright flower prints. There are pique polo dresses. And, of course, there are pearls—hand-beaded onto cotton cardigans.
Sports-inspired fabrics, like mesh and stretch knits, bring to mind coolers at the tennis club, while shimmery floral capri pants channel more old-school Palm Beach chic: picture C.Z. Guest, poolside with poodle. When the sun goes down, reversible cardigans will take you on into the evening (after your early bird special), topped perhaps with a purple PVC coat. Check out the full spread in the Resort 2013 lookbook opposite, shot by Tina Tyrell and featuring a perfectly pastel-lipped Yana.
As more of the collection rolls into OC this month, stay tuned for flower-shaped cat eye sunglasses, Mary-Janes with jelly soles, and the second-ever season of OC handbags, remade for resort in lilac leather, floral jacquard, and suede the color of key lime pie!
