After a weekend of pounding nor’easter rain, the sun and blue sky are back on-duty. The brighter weather has us thinking of lightening up via pieces like this Opening Ceremony ruffle-front blouse.

Miu Miu has always been Prada’s fun-loving little sister, but in a smart departure from some of the frillier collections of the past, Miuccia Prada toned down the designs this season. The result? Several black numbers that still managed to look insouciant with a bit of swing below the waist.

Rick Owens designs for a not-easily-meddled-with, noir kind of woman and this season he pushed the idea further with a direct take on the urban she-warrior.

The well-edited (naturally) collection of corsets are a refreshing reinvention of the usual lace-up torture device.
