If you’re frequent reader of this site, you know I’m not prone to overly gush about a designer, store, etc.
But the Catharine Malandrino Spring 2008 was fabulous—like I-would-consider eating-ramen-noodles-for-6-months-and-taking-a-second-job-in-telemarketing fabulous.
Seriously.. Everything was light, fresh, and feminine. Malandrino’s use of color and details like strategic ruffles (I stress strategic- don’t go all Prince Purple Rain on me), made me proud to be a woman.

I love the the off white silk dress in the first pic paired with the vibrant shoe. Gorgeous!
OMG, I love this spring line. I have been a fan of Catherine Malandrino for a few years, but this makes me want to be skinny! I love the white dress… maybe I should get married again, and have a backyard ceremony in the early summer… No? The dress would be perfect. I heart the ruffles, too. I am such a girly girl!
You are correct…Kathryn…you seldom gush which is why we love you. However these clothes are truly worth the gushing…really lovely designs…classic but with a twist!
While I do love the clothes, I am having trouble with the fact that the models look like they’ve not had a good meal in months! It would be nice to see someone with a little meat on their bones walking the runways. These ladies make my size 8 look like a size 50!
I must admit, most designer outfits are a bit to over the top for me, however, I really like most of these.
Amazing collection and I love the shoes too!
