Michael Kors: Spring 2010

The Michael Kors collection for Spring 2010 is one of my favorites of this Spring 2010 show. Michael Kors goes for pastels, blacks, and, hems are being shown just below the knee. The show featured cuts out, geometric shapes and angles along with more traditional garments once again proving Michael Kors knows his audience and how to please them.

There is one way to sum up Michael Kors - it's wearable. And this writer is grateful to him for it!

The Last Day of Fashion Week

It has been a week of celebrities, fashion, parties and sometimes bizarre behavior. The clothes have been a mix of classic elegance to artistic to a few leaving many to wonder what the heck the designer was thinking.

Stay tuned as things wrap up for Fashion Week: Spring 2010 comes to a conclusion.

Couture Fashion Week Ball at the Waldorf Astoria September 12 2009

Fashion week continues to be an amazing blur of fashion, parties, fun, oh and work (wink). Last night was the Couture Fashion Week Ball dubbed the "Red Carpet" at the Waldorf Astoria in Manhattan. The black-tie event was kicked off by a runaway show followed by a wonderful dinner and entertainment.

Andres Aquino continues to turn his shows into a true performances and this year has been incredible, and, I say BRAVO to the maestro!

A full report on the entire week's events is forthcoming so keep checking back. In them meantime, I am off to yet another event.

Fashion Week has kicked off with huge success. As part of Fashion Week last night (Thursday, September 10) stores, celebrities and designers sponsored "Fashion's Night Out". I attended the event at Saks Fifth Avenue and was graced with the presence of Carolina Herrera, Chris Benz and Elie Tahari who also attended the event along with Vogue’s Editor In Chief, Anna Wintour and Justin Timberlake. Fashion week continues with shows and parties through September 17, 2009.

Lastly remember today is 9/11 and never let any of us forget the events of that horrible day in 2001.
