The Clothes: Upper East Side meets Mexico in bright hued separates mixed in with Lyn Devon's signature clean tailored pieces. Sleeveless peplum tanks were paired with full skirts, and a breezy white suit was perfect for a spring bride doing a modernized Bianca Jagger wedding suit. There was also a bird and mermaid print specially designed to evoke the fun and colors of Mexico.

The Hair & Makeup: A simple face with a side-parted low ponytail.

The Vibe: Uptown brunch plus margaritas. The presentation was held in a townhouse turned studio on 66th Street that was all white inside and decorated with chandeliers and zebra print carpeting.

Celebrity We'd Most Like to See Wearing this Collection: Katie Holmes on a Mexican vaca.

WTF Moment: Margaritas at 11am? That's a different kind of Sunday morning brunch.

Lyn Devon Fall 2012: New Yorkers In Love

For Fall 2012, Lyn Devon created a wardrobe for a New Yorker in love, inspired by the classic tear-jerker, Love Story. The collection provided a ladylike take on menswear inspired items, resulting in subtle darts on a herringbone blazer and a boxy coat in the sweetest shade of pale pink. For the real girly girls there was a graphic “Love Bird” print (lilac and navy birds on white) and angora sweaters in a range of colors. As I went through the racks of clothes, it left me wondering why Lyn Devon isn’t a bigger hit on the street style circuit.

Lyn Devon Spring 2014: Marrakech Mod

Tapping a 1960s graphic-pop meets Moroccan Sahara vein, Lyn Devon's Spring '14 lineup quite literally lives and breathes Marrakech's sun-bleached colors and mythic, cross-ridden aura. Yet often when designers reference the North African oasis, their results are predictably ornate, flowing, and more... let's say, Nikki Beach-friendly over New England appropriate. But this wasn't the case here.
