Shop the Rainbow
To say I was taken with Burberry's Rainbow Collection is an understatement. From the time I saw an unboxing video on YouTube to the time I was swiping my credit card at the Burberry store on 57th Street for some rainbow-emblazoned sneakers was about an hour. And I just clicked "order" on this cutie and paid for expedited shipping. What can I say? Patience is not my middle name (it's Michael, btw).
Inspired by the rainbow, I put together a few wantable items from all around the color wheel.
The Burberry sneakers that sparked a love affair.
These won't be everyone's taste, but they're my taste. At least my taste now. I'm so happy I got these instead of the Gucci sneakers I tried on recently. They make me laugh.
Red - Lacoste Lettering Fleece Sweatshirt
This sweatshirt reminds me of an Ivy League male cheerleader. Like, say George Bush (it's real, look it up). As a loud person who has been shushed more than once in my life, I like that this sweatshirt is YELLING so I don't have to.
Orange - Hermes Joker Bracelet
The best part of this bracelet is the pop of color it would give to, say, an all navy outfit. The second best part is that it's a $365 string of leather and Hermes named it "Joker." Joke's on me for liking it, I guess!
Yellow - Jonathan Adler Acrylic Pill
Umm, rad. Make your houseguests smile (unless it's your mom, in which case she may be worried.).
Green - LL Bean Katahdin Tote
A logo-laden take on the classic Boat & Tote bag. Logos are having a serious fashion moment; this is so durable it'll last through the next 3 fashion cycles.
Blue - Goodfellow & Co Mock MAC Jacket
I've yet to meet a navy jacket I don't want, and this is no exception. I think the hood makes it "fashion."
Indigo - Tatcha Indigo Soothing Triple Recovery Cream
The only thing better than a single recovery is a triple recovery, I suppose. I've been Tatcha-curious ever since I saw it on QVC (yes, I just outed myself as a QVC viewer).
Violet - Ralph Lauren Classic Fit Mesh Polo Shirt
A summer staple in the perfect F-you hue. F hue.
And, here's the video that started it all:
