Youth In Semi-Revolt: Peter Som

Images: Style.com

The cool girls depicted in Peter Som's Spring 2013 collection are definitely part of a colorful counterculture. Where their hair is dip-dyed and even their eye shadow is blazing hot pink. The semi- part of the revolt comes in with the decidedly conservative styling. Since when does the counterculture wear such colorful and prim and proper clothes? Since now. Since me. I'm in.

Colonel Mustard

Strictly speaking this color is actually more of a fine dijon mustard than a plain-jane, ordinary, everyday mustard. 3.1 Phillip Lim's shift dresses are one of the few trusty things to count on to look like a million bucks, despite the simple shape. So this outfit is an ode to its simplicity and pop of color. The Fendi chameleon bag is a travel ready companion in an equally spicy color, and The Row sunglasses and Tabitha Simmons ankle boots are simple in design but full of subtle details that play off this dress perfectly.

Photos by Nick Smith

What's more fun than having a photo shoot done by Refinery29? Having a photo shoot within a photo shoot and assigning the wonderful task of taking candid-like shots to your fiancé. How Christopher Nolan of us. Hope you enjoy a peek at the constant adjusting, weird pouty faces, and inadvertent contortions it sometimes takes to make some pretty pictures.

In A Colorful Mood

The fact that Hanne Gaby Odiele can make a can look fashionable is a true sign of a style icon. I vacillate between an intense love for monochrome, black and subdued hues, and then explode with an immediate need of color. This is one of those instances and these photos are the catalysts.
