Hiya. It's evening here in the lovely city and what a gorgeous one at that. I just had some stoop wine (wherein one drinks a bottle of wine on a staircase in Brooklyn) with my dear friends and feeling pretty happy. Lovely night here.
I was going to write a bunch about fashion today but got bamboozled by work and had not an ounce of time. What I will say is this: the Spring runways are full of lace, 90s minimalism, graphic logos, collared blouses, and sheerness- all at once. It's going to be a very pretty Spring. I would say my fav collections so far are Michael Kors, Ports, Calvin Klein killed it, and The Row was just every little thing.
Blumarine was delicious as always, and Burberry's pastels make me proud to be a girl. Oh, and Rachel Zoe took me by surprise- I quite liked a lot of her stuff. It's been lovely so far, though I will admit- I just didn't get Marc Jacobs and his princess of darkness stuff. Like, at all. The net net so far is that you're either going to be going very sheer and lacy, or you're going to rock a 90s minimalist slipdress and love it. Either way.
The thing I love about fashion and style and seasonal dressing is that no matter what is happening, looking at a runway full of gorgeous clothes always gives me hope for the future. It's exciting, I love the new looks, spotting the trends, deciding what I could and couldn't and would die to wear. Expressing oneself is an important part of life, and to me, fashion is a huge part of that. I love looking at the collections- feeling very optimistic about the future- how can you not when you watch a Burberry show full of pastel coated lace?
Cause that's what's up. Yup, that's it. It's been quite a week but change is good, and if fashion has anything to do with it, a new train will perpetually pull out of the station and wow us- season after season. Fashion just makes me feel good, and grateful to love it as much as I do- I hope you enjoy my passion for it. I couldn't survive without. XO
