this line just might deserve a cartwheel

I used to admire pieces from Betsey Johnson collections, but I would never think of wearing them.  My style just differed from the gaudy detail and elaborate prints on the pieces.  I just found it kind of...loud.  But when I saw her 2011 spring line I could actually see myself wearing some of it. 

There was obviously that infamous edge to all of the pieces. Like the bike chain wrapped around the model, going along with the whole 'biker' theme.  But I began to see these new styles, colors and floral patterns.  The dresses were more traditional (minus the 'Ride Me' necklace shown with each dress), but still so playful!  There's honestly something for everyone here. All of her outfits are the definition of feminine but she adds her own flashy touch to this line that still makes it bold.
