The Harlyn Spring collection for 2014 is carefree and nostalgic in its aesthetic. Though summer may be over, a hot weather vacation calls for the re-introduction of these punchy womenswear styles. Looking to the 70s for reference, this stunning collection features printed dresses, structured coats and mini skirts that are both youthful and fun.
Based in L.A., fashion designer Maria Stanley shows off her fresh and flirty aesthetic in her Harlyn Spring collection catalog for 2014. Her latest collection is entitled 'The Usual Suspects' and takes its style cues from nostalgic summer attire that was often sported by suburban fashionistas and summer camp counselors.
