Rebecca Minkoff Resort 2012 Presentation


(All Photos Courtesy of RebeccaMinkoff.com)
 Last week I had the awesome opportunity to attend the Rebecca Minkoff Resort 2012 Presenation.
It was definitely the highlight of my week even with the teranchal rain.
Rebecca Minkoff is a true genius. Her designs are amazing and the perfect mix of "Pretty Edgy".
You know how I feel about things being too girlie. A little edge goes along way and she totally captured this is her Resort 2012 presentation.
 I missed the presentation but got an awesome walk-through with detailed information about the collections.

The inspiration for the collection was St. Tropez, France circa 1970's.
Now thats some serious inspiration!
The Bags:
Rebecca's use of snake print/skin, spikes and soft color blocking spoke to me. I also loved her use of Rose Gold Colored hardware on a few of her bags as well. Rose Gold is the new silver!
These were some of my favorites from the presentation.



 How brilliant is this?!? I know I couldn't contain my drool either!

The Shoes:
I have a serious shoe addiction and will buy shoes before groceries so I had to include these maneaters.

 I can just see myself walking down 5th Ave turning every head in these pairs of shoes!

The Jackets:
You all know my love for blazers and jackets and Rebecca Minkoff really brought that fire! I double taked and almost passed out when I saw this black suede laser cutout jacket. OMG! I heard this collection doesn't drop until November...so be on the lookout in October because this will sell out quicker than you can say..."They Sold Out!"


 I need this jacket in my life and the bag too!
 Many members of the NYC Fashion Bloggers Meetup Group were also in attendance.


Rebecca Minkoff glowing and stunning and all around awesome.
I wish I had gotten the chance to meet her.
Darn 9-7!
 Outfit
Cami: Forever 21
Linen Blazer: H&M
Shorts: Dolce Vite
Shoes: Sam Edelman Javi
Necklace: ALDO
Bag: Vintage Coach

The overall collection gets and A+ in my book. I wanted so much of it. The price points are affordable, the bags are gorgeous and made to last forever. All of her pieces are timeless and will never be the type to go out of style. I love her use of spikes and colored hardware and the overall asthetic of her bags. Check out more of her bags at www.rebeccaminkoff.com. There is also an online sale happening right now...hurry it ends June 17th and check out my sidebar for the Rebecca Minkoff  Mintbox access!

  20. The RM Collection looks great -- I definitely get that 70s south of France vibe with the dated (in a good way) tailoring, bold colors and vintage shapes. I would have loved to have checked out the collection firsthand; next time!

    Also, I'd love to meet you too! We should definitely meet up or something this month. Let me know what you think!
