H.H. Brown Shoe Co Showroom Opening Party
With great brands like Isola (pictured above), Kork-Ease, Vintage Shoe Company, Walkover, and Sofft, what’s not to love about a party amongst the latest styles? Some of my favorites included these laser-cut suede boots from Isola, and practically EVERYTHING from Kork-Ease (stay tuned for the covered wedge boots and metallic platforms!).
Sweet Up Tweet up with: Three Custom Color, Mario Badescu, and Felicia Walker Benson of ThisThatBeauty.com
I received a makeup application and trio of products from Three Custom Color’s new Sweetest Thing Palette, and later on fell in love with Mario Babescu’s Orange Cleansing Soap! A great night of new products explored, amongst some of the most fabulous beauty bloggers in the business!
Bally Spring Collection Preview
This preview was also the beginning of the partnership of Bally and DKMS, the world’s largest bone marrow donor center. 20% of all sales from the event went to recruiting new bone marrow donors for Leukemia patients. The collection itself was largely an exploration in citrus-hued color blocking — and I loved it! For handbags and small accessories to shoes, tees and great sportswear – Bally certainly gets luxury casual.

Comprised of 17 tightly edited looks in a variety of colorways, the Lacoste + Catherine Malandrino collection was certainly one of the best team-ups I’ve seen in a long time! Malandrino stayed true to the sportswear legacy of the brand, while re-imagining the signature pique polo shirt material into a handful of utterly chic, artfully draped dresses. Favorites included the tie-dye print garments, pique fabric dresses, and the cocoon- like sweater. Check out the lookbook on the site, and shop the collection come spring in Lacoste, as well as Catherine Malandrino stores.
