Oh, Marc Jacobs, how I love thee. And as if I couldn’t love him more, he’s come out with an amazing line of dresses for this season, which is full of surprising, unique shapes that bring out the “I’m a still a little bit country” city girl aspect that is oh-so-Marc.

I once saw Marc Jacobs interviewed backstage at one of his shows, and he said that he likes to combine really chic things with that sort of librarian quality of his Midwestern roots. The Sophie Plaid Dress, to me, is the perfect combination of those two things.

Oohhh, and the little girl inside me is in love with the Essex Faille Dress, which reminds me of a cupcake and a tutu at the same time. A very very expensive, delicious cupcake. But not in that there’s-enough-taffeta-to-fill-a-room sort of way.

Same goes for the Painted Plaid Dress. YUM.
