Fashion Week Favs Part 1: Cynthia Steffe & Rebecca Taylor

*from the Cynthia Steffe Spring 2011 collection*

I know it will take me a few separate posts to show some of my favorites from the Spring 2011 New York Fashion Week, but here goes my first round to Rebecca Taylor and Cynthia Steffe (from Day 3 or 4). Rebecca Taylor just has a talent for dressing women in the most feminine and beautiful way (see below for the proof: the gorgeous floral prints, that green belted dress, and I adore that flowing red dress because somehow it reminds me of my momma). I've always adored her collections and only own two pieces from her, but they are classics that will never leave my closet (you've seen one of them HERE).

Oh! And did I mention Rebecca Taylor opened her show with that amazing floral jumpsuit? God help me but these jumpsuits are really really growing on me and I'm starting to crave the ability to wear these in my day-to-day life (as a CPA, rest assured I could NEVER show up to work in this *sigh* but I can still dream).

I really enjoyed Cynthia Steffe's collection this year as well for the beautiful fabrics and feminine feel, but I also enjoyed her use of color. A lot of the Spring shows I looked through had very mild palettes, and it was a joy to see her use such strong color (I loved Marc Jacobs for the same reason).
