Alice + Olivia fall 2012

Alice + Olivia fall 2012 

It are the Bold graphic prints and Bold colors that start to grow on me after seeing various AW12 shows and presentations in New York. One of the returning prints in various colors that I saw in more collections is what I call the "dalmatian polkadot print" (keep an eye on that one) 

The Alice + Olivia presentation was very good, it was crowded but the overall atmosphere was like a party, kind of like the collection.. 

It was nice to meet up with other bloggers for a chat. Note that after the reward style party we all got the same Asos leather/leopard tote and thus on all events and shows there was a flock of bloggers (including me) with the same tote.. So by following the leather/leopard tote I easily found and rounded up my fellow blogger friends... priceless, I think it says a lot about how perfect this tote is that we all decided to wear it, knowing very well that everyone has the same tote!

After the discovering of a Magnum Ice-cream booth I became terribly distracted and I don't think I have ever eaten so many ice-creams in my life, it almost made me miss the little giftbag filled with Stila Make-Up (eyeshadow box) and yes.. a leather Magnum note book!

The homemade Mozzarella Sticks are out of this world and I can seriously recommend Rubirosa (located on 235 Mulberry street) for their fantastic food and atmosphere!

NYFW tiny details

wearing the Top Shop pink Jamie jeans and Zara shoes

Right now I have to pack, so sad I'll be flying out in just a few hours! I really had an amazing time and still have loads of photos to edit from the shows, Bloglovin' awards and the Fashiolista party! 

But for today I wanted to show you a little detail from yesterdays outfit that otherwise would have gone unnoticed...  

With the tight schedule it really became impossible to run from show to presentation to after party's in 5 inch heels so I went with wearing my flat shoes throughout the day (and the only flat shoes I brought with me to NY).. the only sway I could give them was to wear the straps over the jeans..  I guess sometimes it are the most tiny details that make a look..

My NYFW day 2 outfit! 

I have such a great time in New York hanging out with all the girls and I managed to do some amazing shopping in between shows and events! I just feel like there is just not enough time for every thing I want to do!

Day 2 was so good I loved hanging out with the girls, I felt I hadn't seen them in ages so it really felt like a fashion week reunion and it was so good finally meeting Andy!

NYFW Day 1

1st day of New York Fashion Week,

I went to see the BCBG and Tadashi Shoji shows and visited the Rebecca Minkoff Showroom at Socialyte Caravan Studio together with Claire from De Lune and Olivia from I've got a Lust for Life where I was massively spoiled with 2 beautiful bags, a delicious watch, snacks and drinks!

I spent most of the day hanging out with Nadia, Claire, Olivia and Kim and had a surprise run in with a very good friend and old co-worker Celia who works as a fashion Editor for Essence! Me and Celia used to be attached at the hip at work so it was more then great seeing her at Lincoln Center and both wearing prints on prints with Navy Blue accents.
