In With The Old. In With The New. Lacoste Spring '11

No other designer has as much fun with colour as Christophe Lemaire. Lacoste... Known for their 'every colour of the rainbow' polos, mixed the old with the new in New York this month.

The colour combo featured in this look is amazing. It is essential to pair a look this bold with other, simpler colours.... As is done perfectly with the white sandals and bracelets. Remember to show off those signature pieces!

Did I miss something? I knew that baggy pants were back.... But pleats? Seriously?? While I'll admit that these two gents look rather refined, I'll withhold on this look. Thanks!

What really caught my eye in this collection was how the timeline was played with. The look on the left looks like something taken straight from a futuristic movie, while the look on the right appears to be some '70s flower-power babe.

Black and white. Always has been a staple. Always will be. What we do with these neutrals, however, is ever-changing. I feel as though we've been transported back to Coco Chanel's Parisian studio with these two looks... Even the baggy trouser-wearing woman seems to be a shoutout to the rebelliousness that Coco promoted in her designs. J'adore!

This is what happens when you tell a male model to smile right before he walks down the runway. Lesson learned.

If I were to get my hands on this sweater, I would forever be happy. Well... At least until my next fashion-lust.
