Kurt Geiger London Girl

Lucite Sunglasses c/o Kurt Geiger London // Barr III lace top // New York and Company white blouse // BCBGeneration pants // INC for Macys jacket  // Vince Camuto cuff

What a phenomenal press preview and store opening I attended during NYFW, thanks to Launch Squad.  I wont peep too much, as I will be posting my experience at the store opening tomorrow in another blog post. Aside from the incredible treats, (shoes and dessert) and the awesome KG team I got to spend the afternoon with, they kindly gifted me my favorite pair of sunglasses on the shelf,

DANNI CHUNKY SUNGLASS. 

I fell so hard in love, I shot them immediately after! I had a lot of fun pairing them with my black and white ensemble, and realized they are suitable for any look or outfit due to the chic, lucite detail, and gold rimmed arms. This brand has so much to offer, I have officially dubbed myself as a Kurt Geiger Girl.

CHARMING CHARLIE necklace

What happens when you tuck a lace dress into a silk max-skirt? You create a masterpiece, and a wonderful, effortless outfit. My new obsession, my genuine leather baseball cap from OAK, has been challenging me to create super eclectic, athletic outfit creations. 

For this look, I chose to keep it sporty by wearing my white leather Converse high-tops, instead of the oh so typical black winter boots. Makin' magic is one of my favorite hobbies.

THE FORECAST: Dirty Laundry

Make doing laundry a not-so-daunting task by dressing for the occasion... (I mean chore). One of my favorite trends is the Pajamas trend... 

On the runway, We've seen a lot of silk and chiffon trousers, blouses and blazers displaying outlandish repeat-patterns, tending to give us that nostalgic cozy feeling, making us want to never leave our beds; or get our chores done!

Take this trend to the streets and stay comfortable-chic while gaining inspiration from the the designers I posted above on my Trend Board: Rochas, Prada, Miu Miu and Roberto Cavalli can get you through any exhausting day, by keeping you cozy-cool in the City That Never Sleeps. 

This trend is sleep-deprivation-approved.

A special thank you to The Digital Brand Architects, Caro Marketing and Vince Camuto.

Disco Panicco

This look I am sporting contains all of the aspects of a night at the Disco. The ball-like graphic prints on the Ainsley shorts remind of a 70s party with lava lamps.The fun, bright colors enhance my blue sequin jacket, from Forever 21. To keep this ensemble looking fit for daytime, I added my ivory colored, beaded sheer bodysuit from Victoria's Secret. I just purchased my new favorite, over-sized chain link bracelett by Vince Camuto. He has an awesome jewelry line that has swept through Macys! I love to dance, so my friends call me Disco Panicco.  I knew the name would be perfect for my dance-party inspired outfit.

Check out my showroom visit below, to Qi/Ainsley Showroom, where I pulled some must have pieces with my close friend, Freddy Rodriguez of Blue Perk.

AINSLEY SHOWROOM

 

Thanks to the wonderul Kosi, Marketing Manager at Qi/Ainsley showroom, our visit was filled with mimosas and knitwear! Kosi informed us of Ainsley's direct theme for Fall 2012, which happens to be an unforgettable Western Roadtrip. A pure goldrush to the heart, if you ask me. I love all western looks and textures, and the knitwear we went through on the racks not only had the bullet and horse prints to prove it, but the cashmere threads as well.
