Fashion Week Favorite, Part I

I love alice + olivia.

And not just because I think the brand's designer Stacey Bendet is a total sweetie, but because her Fall 2007 collection is so approachable and pretty at the same time.

Sequins, minis, pleated ruffles, irresistible pant shapes, interestingly cut jackets, classy long-sleeve shirts and chiffon abounded, as Bendet's good L.A.-based friend/model/DJ Caroline D'Amore sported the collection's top looks.

Big, big thanks to Stacey for the a + o VIP card. Still need to do major damage with it! Planning on opening a store up north anytime soon??
