fashion favorites: orla kiely f/w 2013

Good morning, sunshines!
Today I'd like to share one of my favorite collections for Fall/Winter 2013.

Let's start with a video from the presentation at London Fashion Week!


So adorable and witty.

Here's a closer look at my favorite looks from the collection.

Orla Kiely Fall Autumn Winter 2013
I love this subtle take on pattern-mixing through texture.

An intarsia squirrel cardigan-- of course I love it.

The rounded notched collar and topstitched princess seams keep this feminine, and I love the bracelet-length sleeves.

I love the combination of the luxurious texture and the modern, graphic floral.

The peter pan collar and delicate neck darts on this coat are so sweet.

  1. Lovely! I have always wanted a mustard colored coat, but have never been able to find one to buy. The mustard colored dress is also gorgeous, I like how it has an a-line shape to it (gosh I wish those would come back into style!)

    1. Oh, mustard would be gorgeous on you! I hope a mustard-colored coat finds its way to you soon. And I lovvvve A-line dresses and skirt! I consider them always in style, since at least a few show up on the runways every season.

    1. The squirrel cardigan is what I'm coveting, too-- it's a cardigan, which I love, with squirrels, which I love! Obviously I'm going in search of a squirrel colorwork chart so that I can eventually knit myself a squirrel cardigan.

    1. Aren't they beautiful? I love that they can be combined with each other for the vintage-y, sweet look of the show, but that each piece could also be styled with more tailored pieces. Thanks for stopping by!
