Fergie wears Marc Jacobs collection to the Teen Choice Awards

Since the return of the romper (for shame, Ashley Tisdale), very little in the fashion world has truly put my Hanky Pankies in a ruffle.  And then Marc Jacobs jolted the industry entirely, reviving eye-popping neon additions and an amalgam of avant-garde textures, transferring his pension for visually bright, urbane pieces to his introductory line of Louis Vuitton monogrammed luxuries.  If the upper east were to ever join forces with the west village, this rags meets riches rendezvous might best be materialistically interpreted by a Marc Jacobs original.

While vamp might have been vogue for the past season in an attempt to be Robert Pattinson-chic, there’s no harm in letting the bat out of the cave, if only to catch a glimpse of daylight represented by livelier shades more reminiscent of a field of flowers than a vile of blood.  Angelina, your time is up.

Marc Jacobs has long encouraged through his designs to kick “normal” up a notch by transforming a typical item from banal to bold.  A white crew neck tee?  Think pink, with AKA New York. Leopard print scarf?  Think pink, with Tolani. Sumptuous silk tank?  Think pink, with Madison Marcus. Imbuing past preferences with a youthful bubblegum hue has the same effect as that show on TLC that makes haggard, borderline ogre-ish women look ten years younger.  A Chanel tweed coat will always be a must-have essential, but Marc Jacobs Collection’s new interpretation of Chanel-esque coats with explosive colors woven throughout (featured in this month’s In Style), melts away decades and transports the archaic entity to right now.

October might be long gone, but the mantra think pink is one to ponder come December when sprucing up the old wardrobe.
