Opening Ceremony and Pendleton have released images from their spring/summer 2010 lookbook, and the season's message appears to be, "You will mix plaids and like it." We're liking the effortless style, and the light "bleeding Madras" look reminds us of 1960s clothes that may have been washed one too many times. The pieces seem nicely in context against the beach, but do you think they'll play in New York? The full collection goes on sale at Opening Ceremony soon. Does this hazy series speak to you, or are you feeling a more vibrant, pop-colored spring?
