Carrie.. I am a huge fan of color blocks = ) I found this one top (tunic) with bell like sleeves, paired with flare bottoms...
I like Alexander McQueen dress!
ahh *sigh*

I love the Abaeté design! Such lovely stripes and the sort of old fashioned look to it. It's great how summery everything is becoming...xoxo
The Quontum dress is insane! And Gareth Pugh is a genius. These looks make me want to go to the beach!
I see some beautiful dresses there! Nice post :)
Definitely getting that speedo suit ;)
I love your trends posts!
ahhh thnx:) ur header is cool!!
and loveing those dresses!
I love Alexander Wang!
Great post as always!

how cool! love the surfer inspired dresses, the bold colour blocks are gorgeous!
I definitely like some of these.
Fun and funky, I like! How do such skinny models manage to make their butts look so curvy? They must really throw their backs out on those poses.
these are wild--how, oh how, do you come up with these amazing themes? love it!
hmm.. I remember watching a video about Alexander wang and how he said that some of his collection (i'm not sure which one) was inspired by surfer chicks moving to live in the city. I love the idea because I haven't really heard of that before.
such fun posts to catch up on! the rainbow post was gorgeous. and thank you thank you for the tag a while back!

I love the last look. This seems like a trend I can dive right into. ;)
I was thinking about those ASOS ones yesterday - I just don't think I can pull it off though. I'm more beachy hippie surfer than neon YAR DUDE surfer :)
Great post! LOVE that last picture.
Love the US Vogue pic and the Alberta Ferretti dress!!
Great post, I love this. Also put an exposed zip on anything and I am THERE.
so that's the name of this trend!
darling i love the modern sports feel to these piece! i particularly adore the gareth pugh and Mc queen dresses.
darling how is the new year treating you so far? hope you and yours are doing well!

Wow!! a lot of colors!! so nice! *.*
I'm not sure I can buy in to the sportswear vibe! But all the same I'll give it a whirl.
It's a bit too out there for my everyday style, but in runway it works like hell.

Have u seen the shape it makes!!!??

And yes, I bought one for my dad! He loved it!!:P

Funky !
And the idea of the McQueen dress as a surfer dress is outstanding !
Genius post !!
well my husband is a surfer so i have plenty of wet suits to stare at :) not sure about them as a trend though.
p.s. the pink platforms in my post were giuseppe zanotti's.....aren't they insane?
There are quite a few of these I like, have a fabulous friday CC xx
those body con dresses are beautiful!

The Celine shoes, if Im not mistaken, are amazing! I love their cyberspace look.
I'm so ready for spring! Very inspiring post, CC x

Those dresses are so bold, in a good way!
Those patterns are soooo cool! I like the dresses. I am hoping to try surfing this summer in Japan! AIEEE!!!
Some of these are a bit crazy...but they're definitely making me want the beach.
Those shoes are rather interesting! Come catch a wave in Newcastle Australia!

I LOVE the first guys outfit!
Hmm, I do like certain outfits you picked, but I know I could NEVER pull any of these off!
Oh, and thank you for your sweet comment about my birthday darling - you're too sweet for words.

They're all so streamlined! How unfair!!
LOVE this ASOS neon zip body con dress! And I LOVE that whole spread (last photo) in Vogue! Reminds me of how I dress to go shopping!
oh that McQueen striped dress!!! F that is good.
I like speacially the boy's blazer! <3!!
xxxxxxxx!
i think what u've posted there must be one of Giles most feminine creations!! feathers? he's evolving!
CC, yet another great post!
I love the Scuba inspired pieces - most specifically Burberry Prorsums SS '08 collection. I'll never forget the beautiful blue scuba trench (much like the color of the burberry dress you've pictured) I tried on at Barney's in Las Vegas, it was like heaven!! If only it hadn't been $1500
Keep up the great work CC!
Cheers from Seattle,
Emerald Dandy
