Karen Walker Spring 2011 ---NYFW

This is first time in 3 seasons that I have not gone personally to see Karen Walker's new collection. The scheduling was bad. On both parts.

Well Hyoni Kang appeared again!

Various lovely patterns which Karen does best, yellow tones, breezy casual cool clothing, bright oranges, and yellow tones. A really lovely summer vibe!

The only look I did not enjoy was look 27. The skirt was a little weird fitting and the models total look was a prairie queen.

Herve Leger Spring 2011 --- NYFW

It was gorgeous and i love the architectural elements, shapes and forms played with in the collection. Very cohesive!

The variety of cuts was genioso.

It was an array of mostly white dresses (the usual skintastic fit!), yet my favorite was a little pant look as well.

Very classic chic. Reminds me of the ideal behind The Great Gatsby. Which is a wonderful literary piece of art.

Rodarte Spring 2011 --- NYFW

Private affair it was.

It was like a back to award winning basics. ]

Array of patterns, houndstooths, deep earth tones, blues, yellows, westerner looks, southern belle style and lovely pencil skirts as well.

Marc by Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 --NYFW

I always love seeing Marc Jacobs do his thing. His new preview of whats to come next spring/summer, which I will welcome with open arms, was gorg!

There is no need for a straightener or iron, its frizzy carefree hair. Tons of fun colors, stripes, brgiht colors, nice belted looks, and breezy looks.

Hot legs and beach-like gear.

Combination of a few decades, so its for all women. :)

Im sorry but I can not help but think of geometric shapes and the 70s.

Y-3 Spring/Summer 2011 --NYFW Day 5

Sorr about the late posting lots more college work came up. woohoo!

Well the one show I enjoyed on the Monday was Y-3. It was sexy yet sporty with deep colored lips. At times it was black.

I liked the casualwear mixed with sportswear. Just throw out the old sweats!

There was definitely some sexy stomach flashes just like in Alex Wang F/W 2011.

I believe this was inspired by a vampire warrior? Haha, just my take on it. Or a zombied student.

Z Spoke by Zac Posen S/S 2011 ---NYFW Day 3

Yesterday Zac Posen showed the Spring 2011 Collection to his second baby, Z Spoke. I love Zac Posen and his clothes normally. The first collection to hit Saks was a classic, refined girl who still loved to play dress-up and have fun with colors.

I suppose he tried to recapture some of that glory but these were some of the outfits I LOVED:

I liked some really good staple pieces and outfits that would sell well and many girls/ladies would love to wear during the Spring/Summer.

Unfortunately, Overall the collection just was not meshing. It was not cohesive. Some pieces did not belong or look right. Thats just my opinion and this is my blog. No?

I usually love Zac. This collection was okay. It was nice but not Amazing, as usual.

Juan Carlos Obando Spring 2011 ----NYFW Day 3

Juan Carlos is amazing as always, he showed down by Milk Studios & Mac.

I believe his inspiration might been the women warriors with flair. The environment they thrive in being Urban or in the future.

The wrist cuffs remind me of gladiators with strength and honor.

I loved the various architectural elements, the cut out looks, the variety of colors which can make the look achieved work for everyone who may not like only black, blue, pink, or white.

I want.

Alexander Wang Spring 2011 ---NYFW Day 3

Alexander Wang, who is a genius of the cloth and design, showed yesterday in a Pier location his new Spring/ Summer 2011 collection, which I thought was EPIC.

The picture above was my favorite outfit of them all.

Models donned in clay hair, fresh faces, and some in septum nose rings.

It was a sea of whites, mint, rust, bronze tapes, and cremes. Loved them.

Drappery, asymmetrical, and breathtaking. It was like an artist's canvas were the models.

Some watercolor residue effects on some of the pieces. Loved it.

Definitely can not wait for Spring 2011 to begin.

Lela Rose Spring/ Summer 2011 --NYFW DAY 4

I got up early and went to the Lela Rose show today. I checked in and got my ticket to go into standing. Then I was told there was space in the row to sit.. So I sat in the 4th row. :) Oh how cool.

I saw Christian Siriano there, Linda Fargo from Bergdorf Goodman, Ken Downing from Saks Fifth Avenue, and a few other influentials and icons.

I got the show program and everything about 34 looks in total at Lela Rose, which were inspired by Lima, Peru. The drappery, the architecture, the vibrant colors, mixture of the old and the new, and the textiles of the South American nation inspired this whole collection.

Unforunately, my camera phone was not working well and my Nikon is being repaired. The beauty look at Lela Rose was a messy Side braid, which was chic and lovely lips. It made the show have a princessy, romantic feel.

I definitely could tell the difference between a Milly and a Lela Rose. Milly and Lela Rose is about the femininity of the female power yet Milly is more about the girl essence and focus solely on the ultra feminine girl for example, Blair Waldorf. The encarnation of dresses and on every Gossip Girl episode, she looks very refined, sure of herself, and knows what she wants. That is essentially the Milly girl. Fun yet serious Milly girl. Lela Rose is usually Romantic yet the whole collection does not compare of dresses and endless dresses. The Lela Rose girl is more laid back, looks awesome in whatever she wears. If it be cut, the skin is golden. Okay, both are cultured to many effects yet my babble will go on and on in circles.

The vibe of the show was terrific. If put next to the Alexander Wang show, it was much brighter. The models were very gracious and yet fiesty. The whole show made me feel like I was in Central America but literally.

The caught a glimpse of the shoes, they are to be available for purchase this Spring 2011, as they are the Lela Rose x Payless shoes for this season.

Towards the ending, I ran into a few people and one of them being Linda Fargo, oh my god, my heart nearly stopped.

Well I went outside and entered a contest. So lets see if I win. Then went to the TRESemme' Center for an impromtu photo shoot. This is a bit of a bad picture. It was the first one, I was a little nervous.

I was wearing my Vintage find Christian Dior Blazer, Gap Slimline jeans, Vintage Lace-up militia-style boots, Lela Rose dotted top , and Aquamarine striped button up shirt.

At the end of the day, I just had to switch to my alternate shoes which were these:

So comfy, yet chic. Michael Kors saves your feet.

Happy STARBUCKS VANILLA FRAPPE.

Honor Presentation S/S 2011 --NYFW Day 2

I was invited for the first time to a Presentation at Ramscale for Honor. :) I was thinking what is Honor?

I got curious, so after I left after my Georges Chakra mishap and debacle, I went down to West Village to check it out near Milk Studios.

When I walked in, the smell of alcohol overcame a little bit but not to worry, it is almost like that at all fashion events....Hmm, I only had sparkling water. Anyway, while in the elevator I ran into the Assistant Stylist for the line, nice girl and gave me a "You are going to love it". And I believe she was right.

When you walk in, the singer/band is no other than CHAIRLIFT.

:) Oh my my, sponsored by Mac, since they did the makeup. The models were lovely and very nice.

Lots of brocade, elegant and fun pieces, huge floral bows, florals, and a nice overall aesthetic look to it. A look of luxury for a girl lounging, having a tea party, or studying. It was all situations presented and I loved it.

The Makeup for the models was dewy but yet sultry and refined.

Then going out onto the Terrace is nice, such a lovely breeze that day, and I meet a lovely older couple who I almost shared a taxi with but I took the subway home.

Classic yet fun girl collection, I was amazed. Very Chic. Tres Tres Chic.

Then after the drinks and mingling, then it was time to leave, said my goodbyes and free mini cupcake (courtesy of cute waiter). As I was leaving, I was given a mac item (lipstick or blush?) and a White small cube box that says Honor on it.

When I opened it, it was a small blue mini cake to take home.

A+ in my book. I love florals and cakes. This made my day.

BCBG MaxAzria Spring/ Summer 2011 --NYFW Day 2

image from cutblog

I may have missed the show and the live stream for my #fashionableatstarbucks Fashion Week Campaign but the pictures say it all.

Much MUCH better than last season BCBG F/W. The concept of spring and summer breeze and cool colors truly are understandable.

It looked chic, relaxing, comfortable, and breezy for a summer night out.

It really makes spring or summer feel like you dont have to be so sexy. When you do not have anything to wear or you feel fat on certain days, this collection is GOLD.

Richard Chai who I love. NYFW Day 1

Look 23 from Richard Chai today!

Again, I have to say I love Richard Chai Love. His collection for Fall 2010 was gorgeous and now this collection for Spring Summer 2011 is wonderful!

More Sheerness, baggy light pants, the laid back look again, neutral tones, and reminds me of Paris 1994 summer love affair. In a way its romantic but at the same time, comfortable and fashionable.

Richard Chai is once again going to be in my closet, even if I have to sell my vintage necklace.

April's Project Runway S/S 2011 Collection --NYFW Day 1

In my opinion out of all the Project Runway Finale Contestants that showed today, I see that April's collection has a imaginative and personal feel to it. I definitely see her as the winner. :)

This is look number 2 from the collection and my favorite one. There is just something about her designs. Just like one would say "There is something about a girl next door"

~~Kaye Beeh.

I vote April.

Jen Kao S/S 2011 - NYFW Day 1

Pic of JK

This collection as I watched it from live stream on milkmade is ethereal from the swirl like graffitti waves on the floor of the models and the sand they walk with gladiator or string style shoes was gorgeous. It had like a desert mirage and ocean meets the mermaids of zombie brides. My interpretation of her inspiration was close enough! Truly! When she came out in the blue pants, she looked adorable!

Flowy pieces for both a day out and night out in the warm and cool times, so I definitely see them selling quite quickly and myself purchasing an item or two.

Loved the earth and nude tones for all skin types and the flowy material and embroidery details on some of the tops and dresses. The splash effect of blues in some tops and dresses. I loved it.z For a person with a little thigh problem, dresses like these I definitely love because I hardly wear dresses, as most of you can tell.

My personal favorite was the white embroidered waist dress.

This one was truly a fantasy, footprints in the sand to last a long time.

I definitely felt the warmth in the clothes from JK and definitely look forward to seeing more from her. :)

Today commences NYFW, and this is the first post of it and it belongs to Christian Siriano this season, love you doll. <3

When I saw the Christian siriano runway today, I was in love, he does what he does best, and that is work it.

Then later on as I looked closer at the feet of the models, platform shoes with special attribute heels and artistic creations.

I nearly dropped dead in delight, and I wondered are these going to Payless? INDEED FOLKS, they are. Apart of his Christian Siriano for payless Collection next spring.

Mazel Tov, CS.
