I love pretty

From time to time I'm reminded just how much i love things that are "pretty". Not particularly though-provoking or new or avante-garde, but something that you can't help but smile looking at. That's how I felt about the Oscar de la Renta pre-fall 2010 collection. It might not be anything overly new, but it's beautiful and I love it. I was already a pretty big de la Renta fan, but this collection made be love it more. What are your thoughts? Doesn't the second dress remind you of Beauty and the Beast? Oh, and I went a little overboard on the photos for this post (photos fro style.com).

My favorite is the 7th dress. The color is so fresh and optimistic. But overall, I'm quite taken with the ladylike refinement of this collection.
