Good Golly, Miss Molly!

Orla-Kiely-AW10

Can we please discuss this? I just came across these images from Orla Kiely‘s Autumn/Winter 2010 collection (via Wish Wish Wish) and I almost died. I know most of us have been pounded by blizzards and below freezing temperatures… and those of us who have suffered through the insanity are quite ready for Spring. However… I still hold to Autumn as my favorite time of year, and if I could wear one of each of these, I don’t think I would need anything else in my wardrobe.

I don’t think any other designer at the moment completely captures the essence of the 1960s and transforms it into wonderful pieces suited perfectly for the modern woman. These pieces could have been made just for me. I adore the collars, the colo(u)rs (my closet seems to be filled with navies, orangey reds, and mustards at the moment), the buns, and the overall feminine feel of each outfit. Oh, and did I mention that needlepoint handbag? I can’t stop looking at it. (And this gushing is coming from a very non-handbag sort of girl.) Which piece is your favorite? (See more at Carrie’s blog.)
