As you know today was the first official day of New York Fashion week. Everyone in the industry has been in a chaotic swirl for the week long events. BCBG was one of the first collections up on the chopping block, and I must say that I am very impressed by next Spring’s collection. Look forward to seeing Grecian draped mini dresses. Abstract cut detailing is setting the stage for next spring. And yes colorful print is something to keep note of. Check out some of the looks that hit the runway earlier today after the jump.
Is it me or am I the only one out of the loop at times? My girls from Highsnobette, did put me on a while back about Fleet Ilya and I still stat there baffled by the name. It sounded more like the name of a band…or something deeper than a designer name. Either way, the name will bring up automatic stares and glares. And if you have the chance to google the name, and take observation of the products created by the dynamic duo of Resha Sharma & Ilya Fleet….you would know that their accessories aren’t made for the “text book” fashionista. In fact their collections consist of S&M clad harnesses, leather corsets for the dominatrix in us all, and a few other leather notables that would be better displayed during the “red light hours”….if you know what I mean! As usual Rihanna always takes a leap of …
Ok, on my vacation I must say that I took some time to pamper myself. I’ve got to be honest, spending hours on the internet – along with working meticulously with the keyboard, automatically gives way to some rancid looking nails (in my case). Between nail biting, hang nails, and everything that takes a toll on my fingers…..I’ve taken the intuitive on getting my nails UV gelled up. And let me say…I am finally happy. Shoot, I feel half way feminine! Then came my spur of the moment jolt of wanting to get my “end of the summer” pedicure (yesterday), I found myself at my local nail salon snubbing the various colors that sat neatly adored on the shelf. Wondering….’where have all of the colors gone?” – you ladies know what I mean. It’s either too light of a color, too dark, no in between. Granted….if you have a darker …
I hope that all of you ladies had a great summer. As you can see I was gone for about a week or two, and now I am back from a long vacation…you girls know I needed it! Anyways, we’re back on track…and my head is locked, loaded, and ready for the New York Fashion Week festivities. Everyone is out and about today for Fashion’s Night Out…and before I hit downtown, let me give you ladies the scoop on some of the shows that already took place. Agent Provocateur set things off, and I am so mad that I missed this invite (quick thank you to StyleItOnline). Well it seems as though us ladies have to hit the gym for next season. Think sexy lace, corsets that sit pretty on svelte silhouettes. Let’s be clear…if you are at work (at the prior moment) you may want to be on alert! …
