This holiday season is going to take a very retro turn if the [Planet Blue Holiday](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solara-suncare) 2011 lookbook has anything to say about it. Of course, that is simply the direction that the photography has taken. The neon blue lighting paired with [retro-esque fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by) really gives each ensemble a vintage appeal. Yet take that same fashion and plop it into a more contemporary setting and it would be just as modern as it is retro now.

Shot by fashion photographer Zoey Grossman, the Planet Blue Holiday 2011 lookbook is titled White Hot, which it really is. Hot off the heels of the fashion house's last lookbook, [A Little Bit o Lace](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/planet-blue-a-little-bit-o-lace), it is a bit more edgy yet still as romantic. It is also filled with lace as well as sparkling rhinestones.
