Stunning electric Marc Jacobs Coat! ♥

♥  HI everyone! HAPPY NEW 2008!

 So, the weathers been getting extremely cold – no joke.

Coming from Hawaii – LA is freezing!

I’ve invested in a new coat, one from Marc by Marc Jacobs. I’m in love with it. Originally, I was shopping around for a black one and then – this color! For winter, darker colors are always a better bet Don’cha think?

Well, according to the New York Times, fashion designers seem to be using a fair amount of blues recently in their recent runway work. …

 

“There has indeed been a surge of blue on the runways in the last year, beginning last February with Raf Simons’s dresses and pantsuits, in an Yves Klein blue, for Jil Sander and extending into the spring 2008 collections with Nicolas Ghesquiere’s explosive floral prints for Balenciaga. Mr. Elbaz used a deep lagoon blue in his spring Lanvin show, and one found lighter but no less robust shades in collections by Marni and Chloé, and in the men’s lines of Prada and Alexander McQueen. Dolce & Gabbana called its new fragrance Light Blue. And JWT, the advertising and marketing company, just named blue as one of the top 10 trends for 2008, saying that “blue is the new green,” particularly as it denotes ecological concerns.”

Thanks, Color + Design
