The rain held out, the sun was shining, and Fashion Pulse Daily was already in a mad fashion week frenzy to cover as many shows, presentations, and events as possible! We’ve got some reviews of what we saw to get your fashion week palette ready for a looong week ahead!
1) GILDED AGE
Inspired by picnic tables – the collection was as fun and Americana as it gets– from Cape Cod to the new summer “white”; juicy watermelons, denim, and of course canvas shoes were found on the lovely lads and ladies of the Gilded Age. Bravo Gilded Age; thoroughly understanding the art of casual dressing-put together separates that looked absolutely perfect.
2) Jenny Kayne
What can I say that I haven’t said already about Jenni Kayne? Amazing cuts, never fails to impress! I was able to speak to the cordial Miss Jenni for a moment about her collection, who shared that there inspiration was a bit of 80s, 90s, with a bit of an edge; I’m not a sequins girl by any means, but fell in love with her sparkly numbers and incredible cuts.
3) Rachel Antonoff
What a terrific turn out for the amazing Ms. Antonoff; the staging of the show was set in an old theatre, complete with quirky live movement from ballerinas of sorts to a nerdy accordian girl. Loved every moment of it, and can confirm that Rachel Antonoff is the next big thing – check out her sweet girly frocks with a bit of a snap to them.
4) RACHEL Rachel Roy
I’m biased — I absolutely adore Rachel Roy! The press showing of the RACHEL Rachel Roy line for Macy’s let us press members indulge in the entire new collection, and you better believe I walked out of there with a shopping bag under my arm! Affordable, stylish, well-made, beautiful clothes; one of the best diffusion/collaboration lines to date.

We all love our high heels and what they do for us right? We gain a few inches of height, great leg definition and a blast of confidence, but heels also take quite a toll on our feet. I don’t think much more needs to be said of the resulting damage one long night on the town in four inch heels can do, (or two or three).
The aforementioned issues set the stage for why why I’m so impressed with Russell Organics Lemon Jojoba Body Polish, a richly moisturizing and gently exfoliating formula that removes rough areas and revitalizes dull skin. Chock full of organic citrus, lavender, and aloe essential oils it not only moisturizes but detoxifies your skin while smelling incredibly delicious. All you have to do is apply a good amount onto your body and massage for 30 seconds, then wash off! And what you’ll be washing off is an organic, cruelty free, and vegan product composed of the purest, most effective natural ingredients. Also, Russell Organics opts to not package their products in boxes (hence they are a carbon free company), because of the waste, and only uses recyclable plastic containers to house their luxury skincare products-great idea! Not only is it eco-friendly but there is also no time commitment to use, only half a minute to smooth out all your rough edges and for $36, I think that Russell Organics Lemon Jojoba Body Polish is definitely worth it. We also tried and absolutely loved the Combava Exfoliating Face Wash ($36), a mild exfoliant that is lightweight, creamy, and non-abrasive, as well as the Organic French Lavender Shower Gel ($16), which is paraben and SLS free, not to mention incredibly aromatic and soothing!
