Delicately Subdued Styles

Club Monaco Pre-Spring 2012 Collection Offers Softly Sweet Looks

— November 12, 2011 — Fashion
It's definitely too early to be thinking about spring fashion, but that's why the Club Monaco Pre-Spring 2012 collection is so perfect. The lookbook doesn't try to push vibrant, sunny and fruity looks at you when you're just starting to contemplate knee socks, chunky sweaters and down-filled coats. No, what you get is a chilly-looking photo series featuring styles that can transition you effortlessly from winter to spring.

The Club Monaco Pre-Spring 2012 line rests on a palette of delicate colors such as blush, camel and cream, and it features soft knit sweaters, chic jackets ranging from tailored blazers to more edgy leather versions, thick opaque grey tights and slick trousers that could take you from desk to dinner on a moment's notice. However, the line is also not without some pretty pieces that would work equally as well for May as it would for March, including an elegant long pleated skirt, cute floral frocks and chic, slightly over-sized tees that border on casual but can be instantly dressed up with a classic black blazer or a frothy skirt.
