In Bryant Park, just blocks away from the city’s modern art galleries, Oscar de la Renta presented his latest collection for resort, a strong tribute to artist predecessor Pablo Picasso and the designer’s own Spanish roots. The 62 looks de la Renta sent down the runway captured the spirit of an electric, almost provocative Spanish culture alive with fiestas, matador bullfighting, and flamenco—a few models in ruffled dresses could have definitely passed for real dancers sans castanets. The influence of Picasso’s iconic cubist paintings was evident in the graphic angular shapes decoupaging the frocks. The collection includes poolside get ups as well as evening wear (we especially loved Candice Swanepoel in that sensational one-shouldered minty green number. A lesser talent may have given such a collection a campy, flashy feel, but each piece showed de la Renta’s gorgeous handwork in the details—meticulous beading, embroidery, patchwork, and otherwise heavy embellishment—all working beautifully towards the bigger picture: a masterpiece of elegance and unmistakably Oscar.

- We looooove Selena Gomez! That girl is seriously so pretty, no wonder she's dating Justin Bieber! We think Selena's style is awesome, she always dresses up but in a way that looks completely effortless! So of course we have to pay homage to Selena's amazing style! How To Get The Look:- Selena chose a flirty and feminine top with lacy details and little blue flowers. This top works both casually (which is the look Selena went for) and for fun events (try pairing it with cute skirt or skinny black pants)- To keep the look casual, Selena wore a pair of skinny jeans with distressed details.- The key to this look is to keep it from being too casual, you want it it to be effortless chic, Selena nailed it with a pair of sexy black heels! The heels are basic but really brought the look from simple to stunning.- Selena matched her heels with a black Dolce and Gabbana bag. Hot!- Selena is naturally pretty so she kept her makeup very neutral. Just a hint of pink lip gloss and light brown eyeshadow. We also love her curls, they're perfect for a sweet, fun look.Check out the links to see where we found similar clothes! Have fun!

We won't give anything away but we want you guys to know it's awesome! We might've accidentally screamed out loud at one part, fallen in love, and cheered during the movie. The coolest part was that it was in 3D! Will you guys see Pirates? You definitely should!
