All American Girl




Recently someone I heard someone talking about American designers and off the top of my head in that moment all I could think of was Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, and Michael Kors. Wanting to know more I went to my friend Google, where I take all of my curiosities and unanswered questions. Here are some interesting things that I found out:

1) Marc Jacobs has done work with Louis Vuitton, but is an American designer, who produces clothing lines out of NY.

2) Vera Wang, who is very well known for her Wedding designs, is an American designer.

3) Oscar de la Renta was born in the Dominican Republic, but would be considered an American designer because his citizenship is here.

4) Anna Sui, whose designs are popular throughout the world, is actually an American designer.

Of course this is just a few thing that I learned. Below I have created some looks using only American designers.

Look One
This Ralph Lauren outfit with Kate Spade accessories is something I would love to own. The print of the skirt is just beautiful and I love the peeptoe heels.
