It all started with a pair of striped bell bottoms...and from that, founder and designer, Stacy Bendet, or "Stacypants" (photographed above), created the empire titled Alice + Olivia. The quest for a great pair of pants and creation of said pants (the bell bottoms!), took her from website designer to fashion designer! And from those pants, grew a complete line, featuring embellished t-shirts, sweaters, dresses, and so much more! The clothing became so popular, that she is one of the most talked about designers in the Big Apple to this day! Her immense talent on dressing the fashionable woman has got her quite the celebrity following, including Angelina Jolie, Blake Lively, Dakota Fanning, Sara Jessica Parker, and Taylor Swift to name a few! She has even decided to branch out into accessories by creating a jewelery and scarves line rumored to be released in 2011. I ADORE her clothes simply for the fact that they are completely focused on the contemporary woman. She always comes out with fresh, exciting, and gorgeous clothing that all could look amazing in at anytime! Her Resort 2011 collection is utterly to die for, it's like Jackie O meets neon, and her base collection is PERFECT everyday wear! A few of my favorite things featured on the Alice + Olivia website (http://shop.aliceandolivia.com/) are the Alandora faux fur shawl collar jacket, the luiza embellished moto jacket (sooooo Rachel Zoe!), and the sequin slouchy shorts! Which piece is your favorite? Check it out while I try to insert something clever!
