Already looking onto fall and winter 2012, we see the tawny visions of the Mulleavy sisters burgeoning from the outback. Inspired by Australian landscapes, the ferrous earth tones and Aboriginal-inspired handprints are an appropriate tie to the southern continent that is at this very moment basking in the first light of autumn.

Trend Alert: Southwest Prints

May

2011

Last week when I took home my sixth or seventh Southwestern Print Dress, I thought to myself, Sienna, maybe you should share your love with all of the lovely LuLu*s fashionistas out there? Surely some of these trend savvy gals are into the prints!

Well, I'm not going to force anyone into loving the bold colors and geometric patterns that come along with these fresh, tribal styles, but take a look, and perhaps you'll see something you like!

As part of their Fall 2011 collection, Proenza Schouler rocked the southwest prints on tapered-leg pants, warm knit sweaters and cute tube dresses. And Rodarte (bottom right) was feeling the sheer geometry of it all as well with this boldly patterned jumper.

Out of these six items, I manage to already own three of them (all three dresses), and they are my absolute favorites right now! I wore the Tulle Phoenix Heat Dress to Easter AND a wedding, and I wear the Agave Girl Dress and the Obey Navajo Tank Dress to work all the time; they are soooo comfortable!

Do you rock the Southwest prints?
