In September I featured my favorite looks from the Spring 2011 Fashion Shows, and now that Spring 2011 is almost upon us, it is time to revisit those inspiring looks.
I have taken my stand out favorites from September and searched the Internet to find affordable and wearable version inspired by the real thing.
Marc Jacobs - Spring 2011 was like the most glamorous, 70's inspired, color infused show.
This look is completely wearable, and probably could be assembled with items you already own, but if not...
Carolina Herrera - Spring 2011 was a favorite of mine, and while I don't have the need for an evening gown currently, one can't help but be inspired by the painterly details of this beautiful dress.

This look is admittedly DIY but if done right it's a major wow. And again, I think the larger aesthetic point here is painterly details in a black and white color palette.
Oscar de la Renta - Spring 2011 was for the ladies who lunch set. The important rules to follow here are texture: tweed and silks and colors within the same color family.

With such a ladylike and refined shape and staples, you can really go bold with the color and have fun playing with spring's best and boldest hues.
Ralph Lauren - Spring 2011, this show was Rancher Fabulous if there is such a thing. It is certainly difficult to imagine wearing beaded cocktail dresses on the farm, but somehow Ralph Lauren, as the master of Americana pulls it off.

To attempt the same look, on a budget start here:
Monique Lhuillier - Spring 2011, know for red-carpet worthy evening gowns, it was fun to see Monique Lhuillier play with different shapes and pieces, and I really liked the belted, sophisticated look of the high waisted trousers and refined bustier top.
