After Day 1 of shows my NYFW roomie and I, after taking a quick break at the hotel (and an outfit change), headed up to a rooftop bar overlooking NYFW for some rose and a little networking! I absolutely love this findersKEEPERS Bustier. It's super fitted and makes it look like I have some curves rather than straight up and down like I actually am. The pale pink color is right on trend and who doesn't love that! While it is a bustier, I felt super comfortable in it and was not at all concerned if it was going to fall down and I really ...

NYFW SS16 Day 1
I'm back at NYFW and as always Day 1 comes and goes too quickly! Now that NYFW is no longer at Lincoln center I feel like a school girl on the first day of school. I wasn't sure what to expect and was just hoping to run into some familiar faces. This years is definitely different. With the locations more spread out it was hard to make it to all the shows I had invites for today. To get real, I made it to two out of four today...not the best stats if you ask me. I've also never had so many overlapping shows before :( meaning I had to ... Read more...

Behind the Scenes: AAU

She wanted to bring color and texture to her designs and pay tribute to her Native American heritage. Designer: Kevin Smith and Andrea Nyberg. Kevin and Andrea made an excellent team. He had the idea and she created the textiles. You could tell that they communicated and worked really well with each other. I loved the ... Read more...
NYFW Day 6 Outfit
On day six of New York Fashion Week I had a really light day of shows and after five days of shows already down I was actually looking forward to a more relaxing day. One thing I love about fashion in general and fashion week in particular is that I always get introduced to new fashion designers. This season was the first time I had heard of Georgine. I was extended an invite to her runway show at Lincoln Center and was excited to go. The collection blew me away. I couldn't have asked for a better way to start day six. After days of ...
