MILLY IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR

The Milly show was adorrrrrrbs. It was totally reminiscent of the 50s and 60s featuring vintage-looking sunglasses, color-blocking, and some darling bold prints. Even the silhouettes were retro - shift dresses and wide-leg trousers were mostly prominent. I love the first pleated maxi dress!

THEYSKENS' THEORY FOR TOUGH GIRLS

Funny that I discovered recently that it's actually pronounced tey-skens. Anyway, I love this collection for Spring because of how wearable it is. Every piece featured in the show is one of those closet staples that can be worn with a thousand different things. Not only that, but you can definitely get a lot of mileage out of the knits, blazers, leather and trousers because they can be mixed in with your Fall closet. This type of street style is always one that I'm so envious of, especially because of the fact that the boyish low-rise pants look like they were oh-so-effortlessly thrown on. Oliver Theyskens must know how to throw a damn good party if he can design shiny pants as crazy as the green and pink ones.. just a thought.

MY LOVELY FW EXPERIENCE

A friend and I headed to Milk Studios for the Simon Spurr Menswear runway show and then to Lincoln Center for Custo Barcelona. There is nothing I love more than a man who can dress, so you might imagine that I melted when Simon Spurr sent cute tall boys down the runway in suits with leather sleeves, shirts and knits with bold stripes and cool trench coats. Oh, and Ed Westwick sitting front row in a dashing suit looking like he came straight off the set of Gossip Girl. See it for yourselves.

Moving on, love took on a whole new meaning when I laid eyes on the Custo Barcelona collection. Neon lights and provided 3D glasses created a psychedelic ambiance which was even further emphasized in the crazy prints, sequins and colors when the models walked out. The show began with pairs of men and women that the designer created similar looks for. The rest featured insane platforms with spikes, glittery fabrics, bold swimwear and NYFW's favorite! -- greasy ponytails. Basically, it was a runway on some reaaaaal addicting drugs. 

The dress above stole the show for me. Now after seeing all of this fabulousness, I'm sure you probably won't be too taken aback with my outfit. But, what the hell, here's what little ol' me wore on this fine day..
