This season of fashion week brought me a new sense of style, new blog buddies, and our very own self created lounge under the tents. Who knew?
We ate often, we laughed a whole lot, and even got into a few friendly arguments with a couple nasty photographers. (Don't ask)
Although the celeb sightings was on like 4 this year I met some pretty interesting people.
Before I left I decided I would do something a little different. The pic above is me trying on clothes. Umm well that only lasted for one look and soon after I just throw keys pieces in the bag and keep it moving. I am not much of a planner when it comes to wardrobe.
This is probably as stylish as I get. It did land me a feature in Essence Magazine but I was uber surprised when dude asked for my picture. I think it was my gray hair, LOL
The mannequin was giving it to us all week dressed in Herve Leger. (we figured out we were totally pronouncing this wrong)
Backstage at Lela Rose my partner got a facial treatment from Clarasonic. Pretty cool concept BUT expensive.
IDK why I was soooo scared to ask folks for a picture. It really does feel awkward and groupie-ish. But I worked up enough nerve to ask Kelly Cutrone and her friend Laura for a picture. Perhaps she did remember me and bumped me front row?
I only watched House of Glam maybe twice, but I kept looking at this girl like I swear I know her. Finally after days of staring at her I asked her was she a stylist. She said yes and her name was Crystal Streets from House of Glam. She had amazing style and was super nice. Check out her new accessories line. LYRALOVESTAR.
She debuted her line at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week.
This idiot had an apple on his head. I had been assigned second row for this show. I started to sit in that seat but I was too lazy. Luckily this collection totally sucked and I was bored out of my mind. (the show will remain nameless)
This was definitely my favorite look. I was comfortable and it felt like me. We has just came from seeing all the "mens" over at the Nautica show so I think I was still a bit dazed!?
Last year I met Asia from NYLA Report and of course she was back again. But this year she brought her staff with her and Jess and I clowned at every break we got. I can't remember what show gave us these huge lollipops but it made for a nice photo prop.
I was amazed to actually see AndreJ Pejic in person. He really does look like a woman. I say better but ...
At the Allegri presentation it seemed as if style was oozing out of everyone. I should have asked people their names but at times I was so focused on their style. His glasses were last seasons Lanvin. *loved it*
I cannot remember her name BUT I do know she was fly and from Chictopia, LOL.
Chilling in "Camp M" aka the space on the floor near the outlets.
Remind me to put more face on next season. Deborah Cox was BEAT!!!
I think I can see myself in this!!
I ran into style blogger, Susie Bubble. I would have taken another pic since she looks totally crazy here but ... I'll admit she wasn't very nice to me :(
Fab folks everywhere!
She was a student at Parsons and a featured jewelry designer at MBFW. Her teacher was a really good pr rep! I loved her tights.
Depending on what you have on, everyone is someone at Fashion Week.
This little rich kid is a stylist in the making. She picked out her clothes and everything! Too cute, huh!
I just liked her head gear.
This was an amazing concept. But I never saw anyone get in?
Here's where we all crammed in to update blogs, dump pics, and occasionally charge the celly. AOL must do a little better & get a bigger spot. SMH.
After fashion week was over I took some time to walk around Times Square with one of my besties, Bethany, and look at what I found. Trey Songz taking a picture of me with his new Kodak, LOL.
As you can see my week was full of fun. I am still attempting to write reviews. *sighs*
