“I make clothes that women fall in love with.”

Said Oscar de la Renta when he spoke to my fashion draping class in college. Mission Accomplished.

Consistency is good

Every Fashion Week I think to myself, “I should have a new favorite show.” But then, Jenny Packham gets me everytime. The beautiful sillouettes, belted looks, and perfect mix of bright colors and neutrals give the collection a timeless elegance while still remaining fresh.

NYFW Snippets!

Here are a few snippets from New York Fashion Week thus far!

The program and my favorite accessories

A packed show for Tibi

Replicas in the tent of my favorite Hans Harald Rath Starburst Chandeliers from the Metropolitan Opera House

London Fashion Week Favorite; Burberry Prosum

 

We often associate pleated circle skirts with overly girly looks; floral prints, pearls ect… For their Spring Summer 2012 collection, Burberry Prosum  shows this classic piece in a fresh light; bold primary colors, masculine stripes, and statement accessories. The below 4 looks have me looking forward to spring {already}!!

Fashion Week through the Lense

As NYFW draws to a close, the city slows down a bit. There’s a great energy buzzing in the city during Fashion Week and no one captures that energy better than Tommy Ton;

Fashion Week Favorite; Jenny Packham

White was a popular color across the board this past week and I especially love the way Jenny Packham paired the color with luxe fabrics and feminine sillouettes to create these elegant looks;

LOVE The bright shoes and lips, such a fun touch!

Great Belted Looks at Derek Lam

This past weekend, I had the pleasure of attending the Derek Lam show at Lincoln Center. I love the fact that he had tons of belted looks to complement the bright palette and clean lines.

The best part of the show (other than the beautiful clothing of course!) was seeing one of my favorite New York institutions, Bill Cunningham at work (alongside Garance Dore, down on the floor to get the perfect shot!)

Accessories & Extras Make the Outfit!

I decided to go simple for my Fashion’s Night Out ensemble; (since the weather in NYC has been terribly dreadful this week!) simple black jeans and a silk striped top from J.Crew. To Jazz it up- I threw in this belt from my latest Nona E Rose collection.

And I followed this nail tutorial from cupcakes and cashmere to add a little sparkle.

Belt available at Thistle & Clover
