Tracy Reese Spring/Summer 2013

If “effortlessly chic” could be defined by a single collection, it would be Tracy Reese’s S/S 2013 Collection. With America’s First Lady recently flaunting Reese’s brand, the eclectic crowd, including Lauren Conrad, Katie Lee Joel and Holland Roland, knew they would be in for a treat.

From fast paced beats and moving pictures to the fringe, embroidery and beading detail, the collection was all about juxtapositions–structured and soft, femme and sporty, tribal and sweet. Earthy neutrals and warm ochre anchor the pieces amidst tones of bright foliage, fresh tangerines, cerulean blue waves mark the season’s palette.

Easy silhouettes of harem pants, draped salwars are perfect for a sexy siesta on a hammock. Carefree dresses in raw silk are perfect seaside cover ups and leather baggies make any outing feel like a getaway. Her well trained eye for detail proves impeccable yet again with statement bangles of all colors with eclectic embroidery. Jackets paired with breezy pants prove chic doesn’t have to be stuffy or serious. Whether its neon patterned suits and shifts or downtown jackets, trendy wide rimmed glasses or fringed detail heels, this collection had every essential for a sophisticated and relaxed wardrobe.
