I have to admit that along with AnotherFaceInTheCrowd, I also have a crush on Opening Ceremony, particularly with this Pendleton x Opening Ceremony Spring 2010 collection. Just looking at this campaign filled with [light and playful colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vowels-1), it’s hard not to.

I particularly appreciate the [fun mishmash of patterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kate-spade-and-target), which easily reminds me that spring will soon be on its way (hopefully). Check the gallery above for the Pendleton x Opening Ceremony images and I guarantee you’ll walk away with a new crush too.
