Smitten | Marissa Webb

Citron and sequins and suits oh my! The cool off-beat color combinations presented in Marissa Webb's debut collection have me seriously smitten!  The palette although mainly black and white is infused with the most beautiful shades of turquoise, chartreuse, pale pink and cherry red.  The olive green blazer tossed over the neon necktie blouse with matching sequined shorts is by far my favorite look but I'm also really digging the incredible watermark plaid print that ties the palette of the collection together. It's clear that  that my bank account is going to take a heavy blow when these pieces hit the stores next Spring!

And so my girl crush ensues...Bravo, Marissa!

Girl Crush | Marissa Web

Truth be told, I first fell in love with Marissa Webb, former head of women's design at J. Crew, for her stunning long black locks and insane sense of style. Shallow, I know. But the crush turned into admiration when I found out that she left the safety of her job at J. Crew to "pursue other opportunities".  I've been following Marissa on Pinterest and Facebook since her departure last fall and I must say, my crush has reached an all-time high. Not only does she post pictures of her enviable style but she also interacts with her fans, responds to questions and shares peeks of her day to day life. Cute and down-to-earth...a killer combination. And if all of that is not reason enough to love her, she has a pug named Max and a drum set in her living room!
