With life getting faster and faster, do you ever feel like just getting away from it all?  No, I don't mean hauling your SUV to Muskoka for a weekend at your cottage on Lake Joe, though that does sound awfully nice.  I mean, really getting away from it all - no Blackberries, no ceramic flat-iron, no Facebook.  Just you, a porch swing and a wheat sheaf in your teeth.  Ahhh...there is something so refreshingly simple about the country.  Now you know that Karl Lagerfeld has never set foot on a farm but somehow, he and many other 'city folk' designers were seriously inspired by pastoral chic this year.  If you want to take a little romp in the fashion hay yourself, take your cue from the D&G runway and pair white with rich brown accents.  I love the laid-back feel of it all and the best thing about being country chic without having to move to a farm?  You can still have your Starbucks.  Phew!        Real Life Runway Tip:  Once the thermostat moves up a few notches, feel free to ditch the jeans and you'll have a whole new look.  Gap also carries some long, flowy white dresses that would be perfect for a carefree roll down any hill à la Laura Ingalls.  Didn't you just love that?!  If you're under 25, just google it, then find your closest hill.
