Donna Karan: Liquid Assets • Soft Sensibilities
Yes darlings, I can feel spring in the air (at least on the Western Hemisphere)!

Sometimes I love it; most of the time I find it too grunge-y for my taste.

It is only in the video (I watch runway shows vicariously through style.com) where the actual beauty of the clothing can be seen. I’ve fallen in love with the languid nature of the clothing.
