Paul Smith / Spring 2011 Collection

Paul Smith has always had amazing clothes. His use of colours with eccentric cuts brings an edginess to the fashion world, yet he still seems to maintain a traditional aesthetic. This collection is no exception. He seems to have everything from tie-dyed to drop-crotched pants. He also has some amazing jackets that show off Smith's own flare. I'm dying for each and every look from this collection.

Love love love!!! While tie-dye has never been my first choice, this top is brilliant! The scoop-neck is an excellent choice for summer, and the colours would be great for any day out in the sun. I really think that the tassel shoes bring the whole outfit together. With the casualness of the shirt and very casual jacket, it's always nice to have a more classic piece to finish the look off!

Again, the dropped-crotch pants. Here's a good way to wear the full pants as opposed to the shorts. You definitely need some height to pull these off, but rock it if you can!

There's been a lot of tucking the pants into a high pair of boots this Spring, and this look is a perfect example of how you'd do so in refine way. I love the cream colours that this outfit is using. A very soft blue is a great way to add some life to an outfit that would otherwise by all monotone.

There were so many amazing necklaces featured in this collection. I especially like the first one, with the separate chains and the triangles of various sizes. I've been looking for a simple silver necklace to add some spunk to my summer outfits, and these would be perfect. Unfortunately, doesn't look like these beauties have hit the market yet... Maybe they'll be around for mid-summer or the fall??

In the meantime, here is a lovely necklace by Mr. Smith. The Double Silver Bead Bracelet is available at Paul Smith's website for 80 pounds. That's about 125 Canadian Dollars.
