Cool Chic - Gucci Spring 2010 Ready To Wear

Gucci's cool chic...You can spot this Gucci look a mile away! Love the monotone icy gray ensemble, from the sleek pony tail and big gradient sunglasses to the platform sandals. For me, the outstanding pieces in the Gucci's Spring 2010 Ready To Wear collection were these gray cropped biker jackets, which are not cinched in the waist, but cut close to the body. Paired with simple tapered pants, and a luxurious handbag in hand, there is such an air of confidence of a well-dressed woman!

This year, Gucci's Spring dresses and jackets are structured but full of cutouts and lace-ups. If you like cutouts, take a look at the backs of all the dresses! Unlike last spring's collection, flowy silk tops or gowns are nowhere in sight!
