Runway Rundown – NYFW – Day 3

14 Feb

While day 3 of New York Fashion Week offered a few amazing pant looks (which I have included in my rundown), I was most  captivated by the dresses and outerwear.  Here are my favorite dress looks from Day 3:

Former Project Runway Winner: Christian Siriano Fall 2012

I am a fan of anything with a built-in cape. Christian Siriano Fall 2012

I love that he paired such a feminine gown with a biker jacket. What a great way to mix up a frilly look. Christian Siriano Fall 2012

I love this cocktail dress. Although, most people (myself included) cannot pull off ankle boots with this hem length. So - if you are not of model height...opt for heels instead. Christian Cota Fall 2012

Christian Cota Fall 2012

This look has a lot going on - but the jacket....I love it. Christian Cota 2012

I am so happy to see that "happy colors" are still going to be around for fall. Dean Quinn Fall 2012

Ruffian Fall 2012

Amazing coat dress. Betty Draper meets Star Trek. Prabal Gurung Fall 2012

Who can resist a sweater with built-in fur pom-poms? So festive! Wes Gordan Fall 2012

I love the red lining...and the huge fur bangles are pretty fun too! Wes Gordan Fall 2012

Unfortunately, the non-model body type might have trouble with this look. My obvious suggestion is a more fitted top to accentuate the waistline. Wes Gordan Fall 2012.

Duro Olowu Fall 2012

Hervé Léger by Max Azria Fall 2012

Lacoste Fall 2012

Mara Hoffman Fall 2012

Rachel Zoe Fall 2012

Now for my “Pant Picks”:

Monique Lhuillier Fall 2012

Rachel Zoe Fall 2012

Mixing prints is holding strong on the fall runways. This is a lot to carry off - but I really like proportions. Duro Olowu Fall 2012

Green with Envy

9 Feb

It is official!  New York Fashion Week is officially underway.  I am truly green with envy.  Perhaps I will just wear one of these amazing looks as I run my errands today in Beijing.

Running errands in Beijing = The opposite of front row runway seats and the lights of Lincoln Center.

HAPPY NY FASHION WEEK!

NYFW Preemies

9 Feb

While New York Fashion Week doesn’t officially start until February 9th, there are always a few designers who deliver their collections early.  Here are a few of my favorites from the past two days.

I love the mix up of this look - a little school girl with the pleated jumper and blue Oxford shirt...a little bohemian with the fur...and a little ladylike with the long gloves. 10 Crosby by Derek Lam Fall 2012

I love the idea of a printed tuxedo jacket. Michael Angel Fall 2012

I have had a red pair of pants similar to these hanging in my closet for months. This looks inspires me to take them for a day-about-town. I think pairing them with flats, as opposed to heels gives them a more classic look. Less "red hooker pants" ...more "errand running ensemble". Steven Alan Fall 2012

GREAT fall jumpsuit. Z Spoke by Zac Posen Fall 2012

Perhaps it is a bit Charlie Chaplin...but I would swap out the flats for heels and cinch the waist with a thin, bright-colored belt to "ladylike" it up a bit. Steven Alan Fall 2012

I love a suit with a full skirt. It really adds a bit playfulness to everyday business attire. Z Spoke by Zac Posen Fall 2012
