INSIDER ... Cruising Along

I wax somewhat lyrical about Resort/ Cruise/ Pre-collections in the February issue. Basically because they’re great, somewhatmore affordable than main designer lines and oh-so suited to the time of year they hit stores. Here are some more gorgeous pieces from  Resort 2010 that I couldn’t fit on the page, but would definitely find room for in my wardrobe.
