WhatIWore: Here’s a little video I took from the Vivienne Tam Spring 2010 show. Really liked a lot of looks but here I’m showing you A) AWESOME HAIR and B) MY FAVORITE PIECES. I love fashion shows! All Photos from NYmag.com

Love both cuts. Very tempted to try the one on the left for my next appointment.

Pretty dresses!! I like the technique on the right and could wear the one on the left for years to come! So beautiful!!

WhatIWore: Honestly I am flipping out about tonight with the Panel because I am both excited (to meet some of the women who INSPIRED ME TO START BLOGGING!) and nervous (to speak!) I have my outfit picked out and ready to go… its going to be a blast!

WhatIWore: Here’s some shots from the Nicole Miller show on Friday night. Such fun!! By no means do I think I am a professional photographer, but I was snap happy and here’s what I took. I ended up standing near the end of the runway which was actually better footage wise than being seated (like last night… but more to come on that). Also, my favorite looks with photos from NYmag.com

WhatIWore: I had a REALLY GOOD TIME last night for Fashion’s Night Out!  I started by meeting up with Greta, Suzanne and Rich at SPACE.NK and picked up some little goodie bags with great travel sized luxury.

We left with intentions of going to Chanel for Jade Manis, but got side tracked at Betsey Johnson (gift bags gone, sad face) and Club Monaco.  There we had cupcakes and champagne and I bought my official FNO tee (yay!).

Next was meeting up with The Owls and off to Chanel where Greta and I decided to play a game called “you can pick out anything you want!” (Super fun game, try it!) The sales woman saw us eyeing goods, came over and said hello, showed us her nail varnish and asked us if we wanted to get our hands on it. Yes, yes we did. Out from under the cabinet and $27 later (yes, shocking, shame on me) I had made my first Chanel purchase.

Next time that happens is when my secret dreams come true (Lucie! Are you reading this?!?!) and I will make clothing or accessories purchase. (I’ve always said when I “make it” I will treat myself to something from Chanel)

Anyway… the rest of the night we dashed in and out of places like Rag and Bone and Kate Spade (WIW winner of Best FNO Cocktails!). Oh yes. Joelle has her eyes set on a beautiful owl handbag and I saw we take up a collection and get it for her as a birthday gift!

Really, it was such a nice night out. I tweeted before that it reminded me of Halloween, as Greta suggested earlier in the night. The streets of SoHo were packed and there was a good spirit about the night. It was fun and fancy and I had very few run ins with meanies (like the girl in the turban who gave me a dirty look when I complimented her outfit!! shocking!!!)

I can’t wait for the next Fashion’s Night Out. I hope people did some shopping and had just as swell of a night as I did!!!

When:
Sept 10, 2009

What:
Vintage Dress: thrifted, hemmed
Necklace: ModCloth
Tights: We Love Colors
Shoes: thrifted (originally Zara)
Bag: gift from the lovely Krystal

Where:
Fashion Night Out in NYC!!

Why:
I’ve been really thinking long and hard on what to wear for fashion week. Lucky me the dresses I saw out tonight are TOTALLY THE SAME PANTONES as the dresses I am rocking this week. Think highlighter yellow and electric blueish/violet. Yum.

So, tonight’s look was actually because I had made a little mistake on another dress and didn’t want to deal with any major sewing outside of hemming.  The before picture of the dress is here. Chopped off a nice amount to the length and the result is questionably short. Whatevs. Got recognized twice tonight (yay!) and enough compliments to keep my self esteem up at a healthy level (as we all know models and empty pocket books and nothing to wear can drag it down low low low).  I love how Mod this outfit feels. I could have just rocked out black tights and shoes, but I think the lace pattern really lends itself to the necklace and applique on the dress.  Tonight was awesome. Yes yes yes.

Full post on what I bought and where I went (and who with!) coming right up!
