Fashion Blog » Designer Inspired Look: Derek Lam

Fashion Week is less than a month away…I’m counting down the days! It’ll be thrilling to finally get some new collections to take stock of and gain inspiration from. It’s 90 degrees here in sunny Los Angeles but I’m already dreaming of boots and sweaters. I combed through several Resort 2009 collections just to make sure none had slipped through the cracks when I stumbled across some Derek Lam creations.

And just so you know, trench coats aka “the trench,” which DL used a lot of in his Resort styles, become terribly trendy every spring, but I like trenches all year long.

They make for a perfect layering item and give you that Audrey Hepburn a la “Breakfast At Tiffany’s” look. Now what girl doesn’t want that, I ask?
