Fashion Week S/S 2010 continued

I am enjoying the neck piece in this first look and the meshy lace of the top in the second. I adore the hair for the show, a little bit 40's a little maybe 80's? A lotta bit cute.

Diane von Furstenburg




To be honest I thought the styling/hair and make up was a bit off and cooky for DVF. I am a huge fan, who isn't the woman is incredible and does what she does impeccably. Although something got lost for me here. "antiquity made modern" was the inspiration. I thought it was more antiquity made a bit weird. The thing that really throws me are the plastic bright colored bangles. I just couldn't jive some how. Don't get me wrong, of course there are some really noted aspects of inspiration and really pretty pieces here. Listen to me all the sudden challenging Diane.... In my opinion I should add... In my opinion!


Erin Fetherston

I would completely and happily rock the first look.

Derek Lam S/S 2010

Hands down I am all in for Derek Lam's collection. I loved the cuts colors, patterns and the over all simple and refreshing feel. Bravo.

BCBG Max Azria Spring/Summer 2010

Perfect summer dresses from BCBG, Love Love the draping in this first dress!




Alexander/Amelia

Am I way off or are you seeing this comparison as well. The leather the mood?



NY Fashion Week S/S 2010

I was looking forward to see what Alexander Wang would show. Although I do like the simple color palate and the "Amelia Earhart like play on the looks, somehow I have to say I was expecting a bit more... Shipley&Halmos delivered some really easy and wearable dresses, that can be very versatile with some layering and leg wear. Boy by Band of Outsiders always simple and easy to wear. I would totally rock the men's styles as well. I'm dying for a pair of their mens trousers.

"We are the Goon Squad and We're coming to Town...."

NY Fashion week is upon us. The streets and subways are crawling with 6ft tall beautiful creatures, Bryant Park is buzzing and the city is filled with the fashionable and fabulous. Wait, that is kind of like everyday in NY... ;) These are some of my favorite looks from the shows thus far. In particular I adore the collection, as well as the beautiful way in which it was shot by Gary Graham. I also wouldn't mind owning one of the three dresses by Juan Carlos Obando. I find the pieces by Preen with the puckered ruffle detail to be, although not exactly form flattering, extremely inspirational and gorgeous! Also think there are some really wearable and pretty pieces that were shown by Yigal Azrouel. Enjoy and more to come.
