HONOR Fall 2013 Fashion Show

Well fashion week has officially ended on moved on to London Town. My last show that I attended was HONOR. I have been such a huge fan of Honor ever since my fashion idol Tracee Ellis Ross rocked the brand. I covered the Spring 2012 Honor Fashion Show and actually got to snap Tracee and Solange at the show! This show was very unique and I loved the electronic graphics.

Once again there were stripes and lot of black and white in this collection as there were for most of the collections I attended this season. I smell a trend. Expect stripes and monochrome looks to take over the universe not only this Fall but this Spring as well. My favorite look was the striped number as well as the purple, black and lavender dress. Amazingness all around. New York Fashion Week was definitely a blast and I felt like I finally hit my stride covering shows and not being super worn out afterward! But seeing only this fresh fashion made me run out and spend a lot (and by a lot I mean a sh!tload of money on new clothes and shoes). I couldn't help myself I went into shopping overdrive. Good news is...I have a great collection of new pieces so new outfit posts will begin shortly! Hope you enjoyed NYFW with me!

one last day...

DANA-MAXX SS2013 Showroom

tis' showroom and press preview season! i first learned of Dana-Maxx through Linkedin connections. (remember me telling you the importance and power of Linkedin here). we finally met on my trip to Caravan Studios a few months back where she had a few fabulous DANA-MAXX pieces to preview. I was lucky enough to score an invite to their recent press preview for their Spring/Summer 2013 collections at their showroom. Definitely a cozy room of florals, pastels and intricate crochet that i died and came back to life for in hope to one day wear.

This crochet bralet top and matching skirt was definitely my favorite of the collection. i even love the little suspender to connect the top to the skirt...PURE GENIUS.

These floral shorts were another favorite of mine. Dana below looking as fabulous as ever!

Overall i really enjoyed the collections. it makes me long for Spring. Make sure to check out

DANA-MAXX.

What do you think of the collection?

Front Row NYFW

today was the most fun day of NYFW. this morning when I arrived at Lincoln Center...

the courtyard was bare...is was quietly snowing. No paps...No people... No nothing...

but stillness and the click of my Charles Jourdan Heels on the wet pavement.

Once inside the tents though it was bursting with action, flashes and fashion!

This was definitely a day I will always remember.

I choose to be a little more daring today and rock some vintage too.

The LINE-UP

Porter Grey

Jill Stuart

Son Jung Wan

Christian Siriano

Porter Grey was definitely one of my favorite lines of the Spring 2012 collections. I also really enjoyed the Fall 2012 collection as well especially the printed dresses and of course the brogues!

Check out this quick video of the presentation.

Jill Stuart was amazing. I must say I've never really been into her..not for any particular reason but now I'm officially obsessed. What caught my eye was the full mini skirts (so vintage with a twist), the patterns, the black sheer and gold accents and the shoes.

Not to mention this was one of the best styled shows I've seen this NYFW.

Check out the closing video!

Son Jung Wan went far and wide. The collection was well rounded with day-to-night wear. I liked the simplicity of it all and how the collection could be worked together. The earth tones and jewel tones also sucked me in along with the warm furs and wools.

The Spring 2012 Collection was also pretty awesome as well.

Check out this closing video of the show.
