Fashion Week Wrap Up

Written by

 It goes by just as fast as some of the runway shows itself, New York Fashion Week. You get to your hotel getting ready to unpack and begin coordinating outfits to wear to the different shows and before you know it, it's over. New York Fashion Week is one of my favorite times of the year (I'm lucky it comes twice) next to my Birthday and Christmas because it is all about celebrating the accomplishments of striving designers present their new collections and welcoming new designers to the fashion world. The parties are endless and meeting new people who love the same things you do is just as fun.

With that said, I wanted to personally show you all some of my favorite looks from this past Fashion Week in NYC debuting Fall 2012 collections. Ranging from the perfect MET Gala gown to your date night dress, you'll find a new found love in some of these beautiful pieces.

Nautical Nonsense

With warmer tempatures, fun spring mixed

drinks and beach season right around the corner, it's

just that time of year when the Nautical inspired

clothing comes into play. Being a native New Englander,

I can say it's one of my favorite times of the year.

I love the classic look of navy, white and stripes,

and is the perfect excuse to hop on a boat for a

spring sail around the harbor.

Every year when the weather changes,

and you can feel the transition from one

season to the next, you know that its time to

either go shopping or pull out clothes you had

stucked away somewhere. Regardless of the

"it" trend that is going on at the moment,

there are always some fashion staples

that will timelessly appear in your wardrobe

no matter what.

What are these staples we

speak of? We have come up with a list

of fashion neccesities that should

Spring season rolls into town...

NEW YORK FASHION WEEK

Fashion Recap: MICHAEL KORS

For those who are picky shoppers,

I don't think you can pick a fight with Michael Kors..

this season or at all.

From the time he started making

his masterpieces at 19 years old until now,
Michael has continued to create collections for

his sheer love of fashion. You can never

not find something in a collection of his that

 you can't wait to wear or long to at least try on.

Everything from his cashmere sweaters,

glamorous sequin tops and work appropriate
 straight leg trousers. We love his new

Fall 2011 Ready-to-Wear Collection,

and we are certain that you will too.
