Betsey Johnson Spring 2010: Top Picks

As usual, fun and funky from Betsey Johnson. The Spring 2010 ready-to-wear collection has a 1950s twist, with above-the-knee poodle skirts and plenty of crinolines in girly colors…  I can see Jo (card-carrying Betsey Johnson fan) rocking all these numbers:

00150m
