I love this model. So stunning in separates from Ginger

Gorgeous lace Yoana Baraschi from Ginger 

Model Kate Michael glides in a Joie maxi from Ginger

The men WOWED the crowd

 Love the retro crocheted look from Luna--especially with a ribbon and bow

 If only boys REALLY looked like this in shorts--get them to Daddy & Son!

Fab print dress by J. McLaughlin

Ok, this guy won over the crowd hands down, eye-candy-orange pants and all. See guys? You really can wear color.

Kate Spade separates in pink and multi all topped with a hot pink hat by Christine A. Moore at Sassanova

Love it--would risk hat head for this

I like this look from Wear It Well. It's a little blurry, but the femmed-up military jacket plays well over the print maxi.

A vision in classic lace from Lilly Pulitzer at The Pink Palm

 One of the prettiest floral prints I've seen. Love it! 

DVF print is fresh and edgy. Urban Chic

Another great print-this one from Pink Palm

I want this Waverly Gray wrap skirt from Ginger

So hot--Daddy & Son again. 

One of my faves, Ronen Chen from Wear It Well

Clap, clap, clap
