The Coterie

  No VIP passes to Mercedes Benz Fashion Week?  Don’t fret. New Yorkers in the know can still get their fashion fix without the hassle of the velvet rope.  The Coterie is the chicest show in New York with a global clientele who understand sophisticated, directional, and timeless clothing. Those that flock to the Coterie represent the cream of the crop in all areas of fashion and style.  This show is the center of the contemporary design universe. What could be better than that? Coming on the heels of  New York Fashion Week, over 3,000 vendors show at the Coterie . Unlike the fashion shows, at the Coterie  buyers and press can take in the lines at a less frenetic pace.

Fashion Designer

  Chris Benz S/S 2012 Chris Benz is a favorite among fashionettes. I have been seeing an abundance of acid neon colors, akin to highlighters, on and off the runways.  Only a few designers can really pull it off. And Benz is one of them. Chris’ designs for the Spring 2012 collections are some of the brightest and daring out there. His line is sophisticated and chic while still being fun and whimsical.

Fashion this week.

Street Style. Fashion Week is finally over – at least the shows are-  and although the focus is on the designers and the clothes,  the abundance of  style outside of the tents spilling into the streets is always fascinating to me.  Fashionising around the clock for the last week, I’ve been trying to snap some of my favorite glam looks outside of the tents to capture a slice of NYFW, a la Bill Cunningham. I have much to share, so let’s get started on my  favorite looks from off the runways of NYFW.  What’s your favorite  pic?  Vote HERE  and leave your comments!        

Spring 2012 Fashion trend: Bold vs. Soft

Part 1 Wow what a week! Spring has sprung for Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, and my days have been jam packed running from Lincoln Center to off-site venues on the High-Line into every nook and cranny of NYC. Its non-stop a go-go.Keeping up with the shows,  connecting with old friends, meeting new and interesting people,  celeb spotting     ( I’m sure you heard about Nicki Minaj at Herarra, Beyonce’s appearance at J.Crew, and Michael Douglas at Kors)!  attending launch parties, and tweeting as much as humanly possible are all part of a long days (and nights) work.

Fashion’s Night Out

IT’S OFFICIAL.  I was one the one of the fashion bloggettes at FNO – one of the biggest perks of my current job.  I can play dress-up, wear my chicest ensemble, style the fashion mavens that pop into Accessorize, and give a free styling consult. Did I tell you , I love my job!
