Catherine Holstein: Our Take

We've been fans of Catherine Holstein for quite some time now, and it's really no wonder why. Aside from the fact that she's a sweet and funny chick (total Katie Girl), she always does a nice job of keeping her clothing and presentations simple while still getting her vision across. Her Fall '09 presentation was no different. This time around, Cate blended a bit of grunge (note the uber dark lipstick) with a bit of lady. The result? ....

Robin's Pick

The tailoring in this seemingly simple navy/purple skirt totally had me at hello. I'm also a sucker for well-constructed basics, and this one comes complete with a dolman sleeve and cutie mcgoo buttons. And to top it all off, the purple wide-brimmed hat gives it that simple slash crazy look that we all strive for.

Randi's Pick

I love the bandage/tailor mix in this one. It's sexy on top and serious (but not too serious) on the bottom. Cate is really clever about mixing a bit of trend into her overall aesthetic. This number is case in point.
