BCBGMaxAzria Fall 2013 Runway Review and Fashion Show Trends

BCBGMaxAzria Fall 2013 BCBGMaxAzria Fall 2013 Runway Review: A hard rock gypsy walked the runway of the BCBGMaxAzria Fall 2013 show at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York. I have a strong feeling the boho gypsy vibe will carry a large presence for Fall 2013, and BCBG keeps a tough edge to the overall look with quilted leather, colorblocked fur, and sexy leather boot/leggings.  The softness of our gypsy girl is seen in delicate laser cut-outs and off-whites with large scale embroideries. >> MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS The deep colors true to autumn carry the line, that ox blood red continues to be strong, and here we see a lot of creamy whites - could this be the new black?! Probably not...but

Runway Now: Nude Nail Polish, The Beauty Trend To Wear Now

butter LONDON at The Row Spring 2013
Nude nail polish, right from the Spring 2013 New York Fashion Week runway.  There's nothing we love more than when classic is on trend! This catwalk trend that SHOULD BE in every stylish woman's beauty arsenal, if it's not already. >> MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS  It's CLASSY not crazy. Forget neon color nails and  grotesque nail designs. (Almost) naked is better and VERY chic. Age-Appropriate Tip: What you can pull off for your toes, doesn't always rock on you hands no matter how trendy it may be at the moment. I've never been a fan of kooky nail colors for a mani after a certain age… let's face it, mint green nails and wrinkled hands are not a pretty combo.  It's far

Libertine Spring 2013 A Fun Mix Of Ethereal and Wild

Libertine Spring 2013 Runway Review: The Spring 2013 Libertine collection was a like stepping through the looking glass into a colorful world of smashed kalidescopes and coming out covered in fairy dust!  A fun mix of ethereal and funky, vintage boudoir and quirky, tame and wild.  I think this may cater more to our Western edge girls over the East Coast black-out brigade, but I say work these colors wherever you can, because it truly makes fashion fun! >> MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS  There is every color under the rainbow, and they are all swirled together into this fantastic mess, with huge prints and clunky accessories it's a real bohemian chic statement kaer for Spring.  I love the dresses and the lightweight layering.  And

Ralph Lauren Collection Spring 2013 Matador On The Mind

Ralph Lauren Collection Spring 2013
Ralph Lauren Collection Spring 2013 Ralph Lauren Collection Spring 2013 Runway Review: Dont call it a costume affair as this landmark designer of easy-on-the-wear style has yet to disappoint  Opening with a selection of full-on looks with an ambiguous Spanish vibe (was it Spain, or Latin America on the mind?) the designer delivered a series of serious looks with an assortment of style notes to consider. Shawls, ponchos, Matador jackets, here, they all got the full-on Ralph Lauren treatment. Head-to-toe, each exit made for a convincing argument on the enduring sartorial cues and effortless romance of Spanish style influences on fashion at large. >> MORE: Ralph Lauren brand Always a pragmatist, Lauren topped said looks with berets and toppers of all

Nanette Lepore Spring 2013 Runway Review: Spring 2013 has Nanette Lepore written allover it with splashes of color, classical-gone-psychedelic prints, and killer swimwear capsule. The bright peaches and pinks, against jade green and citron, balanced with and oyster grey give this line outstanding Spring potential!  Flirty and modern make a good mix here with cut-out neckline, zip front dresses in oversize, bright baroque prints, black and white gingham plaids in cropped jackets and fitted ankle pants, and short, waist cinched silhouettes. >> MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS  The faded effect on the prints caught my eye as something new to look out for come Spring; this was also seen at Rebecca Minkoff, and both designers executed it well.  Instead of colorblocking, we have

Anna Sui Spring 2013 Playful, Solid Collection With De Rigueur Rocker Edge

Anna Sui Spring 2013 Runway Review:  The most darling, goth girls rocked down the runway to a Ramones soundtrack at Anna Sui's Spring 2013 show, reminding us that rock n' roll will never die and it can indeed be pretty.  Very pretty. Sui remains consistent with her edginess by showcasing ripped stockings, metal studs, leather, and chain collars; and the sweetness comes in a slightly Victorian dollhouse way with pale pinks, intricate laces, poofy dresses, and jade pendants.  Then let's throw in a splash of 'Where The Wild Things Are' - those adorable monster ear, bejeweled hats - and we have a wild collection! >> MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS Unless you are seventeen and living in the Lower East Side, I wouldn't recommend wearing

Reem Acra Spring 2013- Striking. Stunning. Sexy. Period.

Reem Acra  Spring 2013 Runway Review: Reem Acra showcases a stunning Spring 2013 collection of body conscious, evening wear that is nothing short of drop dead sexy.  All women should aspire this Spring to be escorted someplace with a need to wear one of these gowns; it will create a paparazzi following and have you feeling like a sexy Bond girl. A solid half of the collection had me lusting for pieces for upcoming Holiday season rather than airy Spring 2013; but the other half of buttery neutrals and pale, glittering sequins is perfect for Spring.  And I'm certainly not complaining, I would be thrilled to wear any of these dresses ANY time of the year, to be perfectly honest! >>

Rachel Zoe Spring 2013 Runway Review:   Rachel Zoe unleashes her fierce, chic self onto the Spring 2013 runway and it's really like every model strutting is a version of herself.  And not in a "I'm-so-fabulous" way, but in a "I've-got-style-DAMN-look-at-me-now" way; and it's great!  For all you chic urban ladies out there, headed to the Soho House and Hotel Bel-Air, dress yourself in Rachel Zoe and the night is yours. >> MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS  Impeccably soft, draped fabrics in petal pinks and jungle greens, sequins and paillettes, tailored cropped pants OR gorgeous wide leg paper-bag versions, the elongated blazers come in an array of colors - all amazing - and belted is a sure cincher to show off that waistline.

Vera Wang Spring 2013
Vera Wang Spring 2013 Vera Wang Spring 2013 Runway Review: A rather opulent Spring 2013 collection was seen today at Vera Wang and it rang with rich notes of Autumn. Yet, it translated into fitted, short Spring silhouettes which made it very new and awesome. When would you think to wear jewel tone brocades, heavy gold beading, and thick lace?  Not necessarily Spring! >> MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS But the Bermuda shorts, snug and sleeveless peplum shells, short, closely fit sheath dresses, and sleeveless jackets all give the luxurious fabrics and colors a warm-weather shape to fit into. Vera Wang Spring 2013 This collection has much more of an eveningwear edge to it, of course with brocades and jacquard how would it
