Odd Molly- Spring 2011 Fashion Show for Sexy and Sweet Boudoir Femininity

Runway Review: The sexy and sweet boudoir look is so fun for spring, and especially in these soft champagne and rose colors Playing up the feminine side of dressing has been a key feature at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week and the young line Odd Molly certainly wasn't going to take a backseat in that department.

Isaac Mizrahi- Spring 11 Fashion Show, Enough about Trends, Lets be Pretty

Runway Review: When looking pretty speaks volume Every once in a while we need to cleanse our palette of trends and unneccessary froufrou and get back down to what a woman really wants to be when she gets dressed. For most of us over the age of 20ish, it's simply to look pretty in a way without unneccessary artifice or pretention. Pretty doesn't mean boring or dated. It means that you are in control of your look and want ot look stunning for yourself in a timeless and ageless way in clothing that is designed with YOU the woman in mind. >> SEE ISAAC MIZRAHI FASHION SHOW PHOTOS- COMPLETE SPRING COLLECTION The Isaac Mizrahi spring 2011 collection called "IM Xerox"

Edition by Georges Chakra NY Fashion Week- Spring 2011

Runway Review: What to wear when life is your red carpet I don't know about you, but I have certainly gotten tired of looking at overdone "Princess" fantasy dresses worn by celebrities on the red carpet. They are ostentatious dresses that often wear the wearer rather than spotlight her total beauty. I'm all for a bit of eccentricity and quirkiness, but when everyone wears the same quirky big number, it all looks the the same. For me, those over-the-top dresses look like a young girl's small town dream of what a "fancy" dress should be rather than an elegant ideal of what a real grown-up woman should wear when she has the opportunity to glam it up. >> Fashion Shows

Silvio Liu Spring 2011 NYFW Collection brims with sweet and feminine party dresses

Runway Review: Definitely a designer to watch emerge, as it's the first collection and with experience the collections will grow and develop. This tiny capsule of dresses with bursts of coral and watercolor florals is the first women's collection for Silvio Liu, showcased here at Merecedes-Benz Fashion Week. The spring cocktail dresses were chic silhouettes on their own, the light palette was refreshing, but I saw a few key details that didn't sit with the collection. Silvio Liu- Spring 2011 Collection >> Fashion Shows and Runway Reviews The fit and tailoring was perfect and created a flattering feminine look on all the dresses, but I wasn't too keen on the cropped boxy jackets that covered a few of them.
