Kicked off another amazing New York Fashion Week with a Glam Dinner. This time it’s presented by American Express, and we dined in The Library at Soho House. It’s always an amazing time meeting new bloggers and reuniting with the old friends. There is nothing better than fashion + food. Seriously….

Katya Leonovich Fashion Week nyfw fall 2012 mbfw

Katya Leonovich Fall 2012

by blackblondeone

For those not familiar with Katya Leonovich, she uses a signature “Beautiful Garbage” aesthetic. She loves to mix traditional fabrics like gauze with the unusual, such as aluminum. For the AW 2012 collection, she continued with the idea of mixing the soft, flowy fabrics with the more structured styles to create a beautiful collaboration between the two. The major themes touched on a whimsical nature of a beautiful nearly pastel print combined with the tough appeal of leather. The collection was about blending the two very contrasting styles.

Katya mixed metallic gauze with quilted olive nylon to create a seamless look. It was the perfect marriage of naughty and nice. Both her leather dress and chiffon gowns offered cut outs and romantic fringe draping, which offered a very romantic, yet sensual look. The prints were probably the highlight of the show. With a teal, purple, and magenta, it showcased a fresh new color scheme for fall. The presentation offered a very feminine feel with lots of draping and rouching, which showcased the traditional s-silhouette. Another good sign? The use of python. It’s here to stay!

Overall the presentation was exactly what Katya represents: a unique mix of textures, silhouettes, and fabrics that come together beautifully.

Obakki Fall 2012

This Vancouver-based luxury brand embodies the modern women, who loves to look effortlessly chic. I was completely in love with the last number. I love clothes with movement. I think it really accentuates a female’s body, and the finale dress was everything this girl could wish for. The thing that caught my attention about Obakki, was its non-profit counterpart. The Obakki Foundation line’s proceeds all go to benefit developing countries to provide them with support and empowerment.

More photos from the show can be found on my Flickr page.

What a great show to kick off NYFW! I will be at the IFB Conference tomorrow and finishing the day off with the Glam Media dinner at Soho House!! For up to the minute details check the LIVE section of the blog and follow me on Twitter!

Flowers for You! By French-Inspired, Ode a La Rose

Advertorial

What girl doesn’t love getting a bouquet of roses on Valentine’s Day? Whether it’s from your admirer, best friend, sister or even as a gift for yourself, it’s always a treat. Ode à la ROSE is a new florist in New York City that delivers Parisian style bouquets of roses! It doesn’t get more romantic than that, does it? February is the month of love. It’s not always about couples, but major love between your girlfriends, family and even your puppy.

About Ode a La Rose…

Ode à la ROSE was recently started by two young men from France, who often turned to roses throughout their youth to seal the deal after a date, melt their mothers’ hearts and yes “help detract women from their bad actions”. Upon moving to New York, Olivier and Louis soon found out that it was impossible to get a simple and sweet bouquet of singularly beautiful roses in America. There was no reliable corner flower shop and no delivery service that offered perfectly cut, boutique-level roses while being affordable at the same time… thus, Ode à la ROSE was born.
Ode a la Rose sells beautiful & authentically Parisian style, quality fresh Rose bouquets using only the highest quality roses ensuring long lasting freshness.
The bouquets are hand-delivered the same day in our signature Ode à la ROSE gift box. The gift boxes are unlike any other and a presentation to itself – whimsical, romantic, fun, stating “Aren’t you the lucky one!?”
A photo of the bouquet is taken right before it leaves our workshop and emailed to the sender along with the exact delivery time.

10% discount! Love the flowers? Readers will be able to grab the discount code by simply clicking “Like” on the Ode a La Rose Facebook page.

Pretty Powerful 2.0

Bobbi Brown wants women to feel that they are all beautiful in their own way. Pretty Powerful 2.0 features 30 new women and their makeovers, including “before” & “after” photos, video interviews and face charts to recreate the looks.

“I believe that beauty comes in all ages, colors, shapes and sizes,” says Bobbi of her inspiration for Pretty Powerful. “It’s not about looking like someone else or trying to be someone you’re not. It’s about figuring out what works for you.” She adds: “Being Pretty Powerful is much bigger than beauty. It’s about confidence and the path you take to achieve it.”

So what gives me inner confidence? I would say my generosity and frankness. I see the beauty in being the bigger person and extending my hand to help others. I honestly believe that more harm is done to both yourself and others if you are too selfish. I also see a point in being frank with people. People can respect the fact that you are upfront with them. Loyalty, plays a big role in my relationships with people. I like to keep a happy relationship with others.

A well-developed relationship gives me confidence. Support from your peers and friends is worth all the work. With that, I can pretty much go chase my passions, knowing they are behind me 110%. It’s this motivation that I keep with me when I create my blog posts, start new projects or even try a bold new lip color. Being a good friend is the most powerful ability anyone can have!
