NYFW!

New York Fashion Week has been in bloom for the past four days and though I have not been invited or scored any tickets, I can still follow faithfully on style.com! I've been to the tents once, to the Spring 09 Chado Ralph Rucci show, courtesy of my dear friend RAR. It was everything I thought it would be! The scene crowded & chic, the drinks girly, the herders pushy, the models thin and the clothes AB-FAB. My shot is above. Note Miss Jay front row! I'd like to think he was judging her walk. :)

Scott Schuman of The Sartorialist thinks access to fashion shows will soon be like getting tickets to any concert or sporting event, up to the highest bidder. "Don’t you think it’s only a matter of time before these shows are open to the public? With live streaming the designers are basically side stepping mainstream fashion media and speaking directly to you. It’s only a matter of time before a Marc Jacobs show is an event no different than Broadway or a Knick’s game (but, hopefully better than a Knick’s game)."

Here are some of my favorites from the Fall 10 shows going on this week.
ZAC POSEN





DIANE VON FURSTENBERG
Natalia opened and closed the show. Her look is so strong!





REBECCA TAYLOR


This last one is so ethereal. It looks like something out of Alice in Wonderland (which I am sooo beyond excited to see March 5)!

YIGAL AZROUËL




VENA CAVA




CATHERINE MALANDRINO



Also, another thing I love about fashion week... an invasion of incredibly stylish women occurs! My office is kind of near Bryant Park and on my walk uptown while I got some PRET, I saw many inspirational outfits. Today I wore grey baggy chinos, a pink cashy cardi with my JCREW supernova necklace, an orange printed silk scarf, & my suede pumps with taupe bow. xo G.
