derek lam s/s 2011

i was soooo upset not being to make it to the DEREK LAM show this season...
fortunately, i was invited to the showroom to check out the collection first hand!
of course i immediately fell in love when i saw the collection online,
but getting to see every look up close + personal made me fall even more in love ♥
it is amazing how much of the details are missed just seeing it on the runway.
for those of you who haven't seen the whole collection check out a great video of it HERE.
anyway, just wanted to share some of my favorite looks from my visit.
i know there are a lot of pics-- i just couldn't narrow it down!
hope you enjoy!

p.s. how AMAZING is the gray front cropped sweater?! dying! sooo perfect for fall/winter!
