Frankie Morello A/W 2011/12 Pre-Collection

As far as what a pre-collection for autumn and winter is, exactly, is beyond me. From what I can tell in the colors used in the Frankie Morello lookbook, it appears to be a collection that is geared towards the early to mid parts of fall (rather than the months before autumn and winter, the season formerly known as summer). After browsing through the lookbook, the outfit that garnered most of my attention was this simple jeans, sweater, heels combo that would look right at home on the streets of a rural town or NYC.

I’m not overly thrilled about the fur as I find that the jeans steal most of my attention. For casual looks, I’ve always thought that jeans and heels were one of the sexiest combinations drawn up. The heels not only blend wonderfully with the sweater but become highlighted due to the light coloring of the jeans. The light coloring of the jeans also help to accent the model’s blue eyes, something you wouldn’t imagine as being possible due to the distance between the two.

While I’ve spoken out against white during the darker months, it works fine in this look as it is not the primary piece of clothing. Using white as an accent piece becomes perfectly acceptable here as the white shirt both calls attention to the top, but also ties the light colored jeans and dark colors in the sweater together. Even though I dislike winter, I must admit I’m getting excited for the trends that may be coming along with it.
