designer training wheels

For the last year or so, Urban Outfitters has created a number of capsule collections with smaller designers.
Its a great way for those of us with less disposable cash to access the ideas and styles of some up-and-coming designers (and, hopefully, they get exposed to new audiences who will eventually buy their main lines)

The fall pieces have been coming out in drips and draps: This silk dress from Rapscallion by Samatha Pleet is one of my favorite pieces. It looks so comfy -- and yet dressed-up!
And at $68 USD its a bit of a steal!
