I swear, this blog may eventually turn into a J.Crew forum. My goodness. Anyway. J.Crew's Fall 2010 collection premiered last night at Milk Studios here in New York and it did not disappoint. While taking a look at the collection it started to trigger something familiar that I couldn't quite put my finger on- that is until creative director Jenna Lyons described it as "Edie Beale (Grey Gardens) goes to Girl Scout camp." BINGO. She also added that the pieces were influenced by Phoebe Philo's debut collection for Celine, which you can see through the heavy use of minimalist creams and caramels. J.Crew stayed true to themselves with their typical layered look, but the overall feel seems much more high end and, dare I say, high fashion. Sadly, it is only spring and this collection won't be in stores until August/September. I guess I'll have to wait until Fall to layer my tweeds with my herringbones and accessorize with a couple handfuls of broaches.
