Her name is Rachel Comey, and her clothes are beautiful.
The cool thing is, I recognize a lot of what she does because I try to do it myself. The difference, of course, is she does it with interesting fabrics and rich colors. I depend heavily on H&M and cheapo thrift store stuff. And Comey's work will, inevitably, look better on 5'9", 100-pound Russian chicks.
Behold:
The slouchy hat and all black. I can't get enough of tights and high- and low-heeled brogues. You will literally have to rip my black tights out of my grasping, sweaty arms when summer rolls around.*
Cardigans over spring dresses.
Leeeeopard print. (Did I mention I quite like leopard print?)
Black patterned dress with sleeves (!) and a belt.
And a little bit Margot-Tenenbaum-fights-Big-and-Little-Edie-in-the-40s.Flash back to Spring 2008 RTW for chunky grandpa glasses, sheer patterned blouses, little girly touches (like lingerie under jackets), and sneaky color attacks:



I am sooo into you, Rachel Comey.
*Actually, ever since Kaiser Karl put his girls in sheer black tights for Spring 2009 RTW, I can reason that black tights are practical and perfectly acceptable until mid-July.
