By day 6 of New York Fashion Week, I’ve pretty much decided that it’s okay to take a day off from a heavy duty hair style and makeup look, and hey, who knows; I may not even put my contact lenses in today. It’s all about effortless elegance, something easy to wear and pair, and sophisticated enough to solicit a compliment or two along the way.
In my opinion, what I just described is called a jumpsuit, and by wearing a few great pieces of jewelry with it, I’m all set! It was also my lucky day, as my newest lipstick from NARS matched the pinkish-red hue in the jumpsuit perfectly.
See below for the exact details on what I wore, and stay tuned for more fashion week coverage.

The week is already set at a frenetic pace, taking me with it! I’m feeling lovely in an assortment of hues that blend perfectly into a spring or fall wardrobe; once the weather turns chilly, pairing this with some thick opaque tights and boot or booties will certainly do the trick! As always, accessories for me is the spice of life, and I love when I can compliment or perfectly match them to the colors in my clothing.
In the meanwhile, I’m digging all of the spring fashion coming down the runway; some select looks can already be found here on FPD, and please check back from more reviews, trends, and beauty reports at the end of the week.

There’s no such thing as a weekend during fashion week, as shows run from 9am-9pm even on Saturday and Sunday. Nonetheless, I decided to work the glam factor in thanks to this stunning dress from Marimekko and dazzling Sorrelli jewels.
And the best part of all? If you see anything you like, you can shop them now (or very, very soon!) at each brand’s respective sites! Continue reading…

Welcome to Day 3 of New York Fashion Week! My feet aren’t killing me yet-yay! Just for an extra measure to sustain my comfort, I wore one of my favorite pairs of flats, and it being the weekend and all, I thought I could be a bit more casual anyways. Today was a scorcher, with the temperature hitting 92 degrees, so a sleeveless garment was absolutely in order.
Otherwise, here’s to hopefully an Indian summer and a mild winter, and in the meanwhile, I truly am enjoying the sun beating down, in tandem with getting in some of my new summer looks, for a while longer. What I’m wearing is actually two pieces, a halter top and skirt, but give an awesome illusion of one fluid dress, complimented by some blushy sparkle found on my wrists and ears.
