Forever 21 Top / Vintage Earrings / BCBG Necklace / Forever 21 Ring / Vintage Louis Vuitton Clutch / Old Navy Skinnies / Nine West Peep Toe Pumps
I never thought I’d wear red after I over did it in the 5th grade, but I’ve been searching for just the right shade to wear this Fall. Lucky me, this sheer number with pretty blouson sleeves caught my attention.

Nanette Lepore S/S 2012
[[MORE]]
Neon colors, flirty dresses and ladylike silhouettes is the best way to describe Nanette Lepore’s S/S 2012 collection. The clothes were as playful as they were beautiful, and I’d love to have any piece in my wardrobe!

Karen Walker S/S 2012
[[MORE]]
Karen Walker’s Spring/Summer 2012 Collection is one part menswear inspired, one part 40’s charm, and one part 50’s modesty. My favorite part? The turban-esque head scarves and fun, graphic prints!

Seeing Oscar De La Renta’s Spring/Summer 2012 Collection up-close and in-person was an absolute dream come true. The clothes were ethereal, and the styling was beautiful- I wish I could own every single piece!
Even more exciting than the beautifully crafted dresses, were the out of this world accessories the models wore as they floated down the runway. From over-sized...

J. Crew S/S 2012
[[MORE]]
At this Season’s fashion week, I’ve noticed one thing in particular: simplicity rules!
The J. Crew collection was no exception. Neons, pastels, stripes, polka dots, prints, and lady-like hem lines are all the rage for Spring/Summer 2012.

Rachel Roy S/S 2012
[[MORE]]
Rachel Roy’s Spring/Summer 2012 Collection is simple, feminine minimalism at its best. Floral prints off-set by soft corals and splashes of back and white add glamour to the subtle touch of menswear inspiration.
The highlight of the presentation? Kim K reviewed the designs with the designer herself- they’re both strikingly gorgeous, and I even caught a glimpse of...

L.A.M.B. S/S 2012
[[MORE]]
The Spring/Summer 2012 L.A.M.B. collection had a cool, urban-tribal vibe.
Aside from bold prints, stripes, lace embellishments, a mix of colors, and a wide range of stylistic choices, it was the beautiful, ethnic jewelry that caught my eye.

Pamela Love S/S 2012
[[MORE]]
The Pamela Love jewelry Presentation was an exotic masterpiece- it had an Egyptian Safari vibe, complete with piles and piles of beautiful Middle Eastern rugs, and rustic, ethnic back-drops. The models were adorned in beautifully crafted metal, stone and leather accessories, safari-inspired cowboy hats with turban-tied bandanas underneath, and desert-worthy attire. (Even the live...

Project Runway Finale Taping
[[MORE]]
To be able to say that the Project Runway finale taping was officially my first fashion show, is worth a million memories.
To get moved from the standing section in the back, to the 2nd row- directly behind Betsey Johnson, within arms-length of Malin Ackerman, just a few seats from Nina, Heidi and Michael is PRICELESS!

Marie Claire & Nina Garcia

Yesterday I had the privilege of attending breakfast at the offices of Marie Claire, and getting a style closet tour! My nerves were completely under control, until the amazing Nina Garcia walked in. (She’s just as glamorous in person as she is on TV and in print, and beyond sweet!)

VALENTINO at Fashion's Night out
[[MORE]]
Mr. Valentino made a brief appearance at the Oscar De La Renta store for Fashion’s Night Out, and as he quietly snuck away, I asked him if I could snap a picture. He kindly replied yes, and it’s a moment in time that I’ll never forget.

Sarah Jessica Parker
I had the honor attending the Fashion’s Night out party at Oscar De Le Renta’s Madison Avenue store.
Although the clothes were beyond amazing, it was Mr. De La Renta himself that stole the show with his amazing singing voice!

Gretchen Jones is by far my favorite Project Runway winner of all time! Her clothes are fresh and exciting, with a boho-chic feel. (They’re also really curvy-friendly, with cinched waist silhouettes and flowy fabrics!)
She also designs her own accessories (major bonus, right?!)- this collection, ranging from necklaces to earrings and bracelets. (Her own...

Rachel Antonoff’s designs are as unique as they are adorable. The presentation was vintage-inspired, quirky, with a dark, mod vibe.
The stand-out pieces, aside from the cute-as-can-be dresses? The bright, punch-colored oxfords and menswear inspired top-hats, perfectly fit for Spring/Summer 2012.

All of the Lights

Taking a walk through Times Square at sunset is a humbling experience. The hustle and bustle of the city, the honks, pointing, and picture-taking reminds us that we are all small fish in an enormous sea, swimming up-stream, against the tides of life.
There are people crowded together from different parts of the world- some hoping to achieve their dreams in the big city,...
