BABYPHAT...

BABY PHAT by KIMORA LEE SIMMONS celebrated their 10 year anniversary with her best collection yet! I loved a lot of her pieces and in my opinion her most cohesive collections. Perfect closure to Fashion Week! Speacial shoutout to the lovely NATALIE HINDS for the invite! Here are some of my fav looks:

ARGYLE CULTURE Fashion Show Footage...

RUSSELL SIMMONS ARGYLE CULTURE presented their Spring 2009 collection during Fashion Week. Love the "preppy, hip-hop" look of this line! Check out the footage sent from Miguel (thanks!).

MAX AZRIA...

The MAX AZRIA show was packed to capacity! There were literally people everywhere! The show was great -- perfect finale from BCBG and Herve Leger. Big ups to the PR team! Pulling off 3 shows in 1 week is A LOT of work! The front row was very star studded...Joy Bryant...Zoe Saldana...Michelle Trachtenberg...Natasha Bedingfield...Barbara Bush etc etc. Overall the collection was very simple, clean & looked very comfy! There were a lot of draped, jersey dresses & jumpsuits...I loved the belted vests and "gypsy" pants...the color palette consisted of light grey, mauve's with splashes of teal, light orange & deep purple.

CYNTHIA STEFFE...

I LOVED this collection so much that I had to make the images smaller so everything would fit! CYNTHIA STEFFE rally had something for every type of girl in her collection! This was the first season that the new designer, SHAUN KEARNEY, designed and I am very impressed! Everything is very wearable! Trends to be on the look out for included: 1-strap shirts; flowy, printed dresses; "knickers"; jumpsuits; crisp, white ensembles; cropped jackets; lime green & black & white combos!

Check out my fav looks:

HALSTON...

LOVED all the bright colored dresses by HALSTON! They're very simple, but the flowy movement of them stil make them sexy...what do you think?
