NYFW—William Okpo F/W 2013

Posted in Designers, Fashion, Shows by

Hola!  Yes NYFW has ended but I have plenty of reviews in store for you. First up is the fun and innovative line—William Okpo.  The designers are super cool sisters Darlene and Lizzie.  This was not a traditional fashion show but a presentation in which I thoroughly enjoyed.

The F/W 2013 collection had muted colors filled with lots of patterns and textures.  It was a mixture of lady-like preppy with button shirts and pencil skirts to casual and sporty with varsity style jackets. My fave piece was the uber-luxe fur jacket (not sure if it is faux) shown in the first pic.  The makeup was fairly simple with thick dark brows and red pouty lips.  I loved that big messy buns ruled the hair for the night!

Designers Darlene and Lizzie

This line is young and fun…perfect for hipsters!  What are your thoughts?  Do tell.

NYFW—Mara Hoffman Fall/Winter 2013

Posted in Designers, Fashion, Shows by

Hola!  People think that NY’ers go hard, please the fashion crowd goes harder!  Even Nemo the Blizzard couldn’t stop day 3 of NYFW from going down. One of my fave designers–Mara Hoffman showed today. She never misses the mark, as I want every piece that came down the runway.  You can always expect her collection to be fun and filled with colorful ethnic prints and patterns.  Hoffman states– ”I wanted to embrace what we do best with this collection and give our girls what they love most – color, print and wearable yet unique silhouettes.”  She definitely achieved that, don’t you agree?  Enjoy the show!

NYFW—BCBG Fall 2013

Posted in Fashion, Shows by

Hola!  Yesterday New York Fashion Week started off with a bang!  One of my fave shows was BCBG, tons of inspiration for Fall 2013 as well as items that can be worn in the blustery winter weather now. Layers were in abundance-sweaters over dresses over pants and more!  Fur, leather and beanies all took center stage as well.  The juxtaposition of it all works and I am loving it!

Max Azria‘s design team use of prints paired with the right colors and textures brings the clothing to life.  This collection shows you exactly how to get more wear out of your summer items in the midst of winter.  It makes me want to take a risk by pairing my summer frock and leather pants.  Take a peek at the show and share your thoughts.

As usual stay tuned right here as I will continue to bring you coverage of my fave shows.  You can also tune into the live stream here as well.  Happy Fashion Week!

Posted in Designers, Fashion, Shows by

Hola peeps!  I won’t even bore you with me being MIA…so all I will say is stay tuned more pics from #nyfw coming.  However, the shows have since moved from New York to across the pond in London *oh how I wish I were there*.  Today we  are featuring Topshop Unique Collection which I adore.  This is a young and fun collection that will take you from shopping with your bestie, dinner with the beau and a night out clubbing.  Tons of black and white combos are popping up for spring yet Topshop manages to add in pops of yellow, cobalt, and pale neutrals.  Hummm taking mental notes now for my Spring shopping….are you?

NYFW SS13—Cushnie et Ochs

Posted in Designers, Fashion, Shows by

Hola!  NYC is hustling and bustling with models, designers, and style enthusiast hungry with fashion week mania.  Here is one of my fave designer duos—Cushnie et Ochs.  The SS13 collection was heavy in black/white pieces with a dash of blue in the mix.  I really like the simplicity of each piece—the long lines and cutout silhouettes are gorge!  A job well done by the designers, as we all can look forward to contemporary elegance as the tone for next Spring/Summer.  What are your thoughts?

Couture Fashion Week A/W 2012

Posted in Designers, Fashion, Shows by

Hola!  Couture Fashion Week was held at the fab Waldorf-Astoria Hotel over the weekend.  I attended the 8pm show on Saturday night.  The Waldorf oozes glam and it was the perfect setting for the show.  The designers featured were Jet Art Designs by Princess Tarinan Von Anhalt and Andres Aquino; both were really awesome!  There were lots of usage of color, rich fabrics/textures, and a big lean towards the arts.  I think that the artistic style of Jet Art Designs denim can take you from glam to casual-cool.  The uber-luxe collection by Aquino is reserved for your most fab event—when you want to dress to impress. 

Enjoy the snaps below as this is just the beginning, we have many more pics and videos to come.  Much thanks to my partner in fashion J Stynze Entertainment for all of the images.  Stay tuned!
