I am more of a solid type of gal. Sometimes when I pick up dresses that have paterns I think to myself, is it going to look dates in a couple of months? BUT your post convinced me that I should really just buy one:)

Prints charming indeed!
I rewatched that episode of Gossip Girl recently and was also struck by how lovely Jenny and Blair's dresses were. :-)

That pac man dress is awesome! Love print, not my forte but would like to be more daring and invest in more printed dresses. Would love a Pucci print dress that's for sure xx
The prints you featured here are so fabulous - I love the Beyond the Valley picture the best!
Great title for a post. I'm not sure I'm a big fan of print though..perhaps not so bold in some of the patterns.
Happy Holidays!
& thanks for visiting my blog & the feedback.
I adore the Zac Posen pre-fall collection, too! I looove prints. It seems like I hardly wear an outfit without them. Jenny's dress is pretty.
Not only CC but Eelie too. They hide a multitude of sins and make an otherwise basic cut of dress into something quirky and fabulous!
i love all the prints!!
all i ever think of is.."makie it work!"
As always .. you find the most chic, fabulous finds.. serious eye candy..
I wanted to wish you and you family a joyous Holiday this season..
nice photos, like always!
xo :)
Am completely in love with the Giles Deacon Pacman dress!
xx.
:O The dresses in that first photo are stunning! Lovely prints :)
Oh, I love these prints! They're so colorful and full of life.
And thank you for adding me to you blogroll!

Haha, of course Gossip Girl would be on top of the trend already. The first picture is amazing!
