A Fashionista's Dream: New York Fashion Week!

New York Fashion Week is dying down and I am suffering from a fashion high! NYFW was showcasing Fall 2010 Ready To Wear collections from the new like Christian Siriano to the old stand by's like Michael Kors and Calvin Klein. I want to look at the big trends that I saw this year: sweaters, jumpsuits, draping, metallic, prints, outerwear, ruffles, and BOHO.

JUMPSUITS-



Here are two examples of some jumpsuits, the above comes from the eccentric Betsy Johnson. I love the color and the print on the jumpsuit, this Fall season does have a lot of deep tones but a lot of the designers are also using brights to spice their collections up. On the right is a jumpsuit from Christian Siriano, winner of Project Runway. He is the only winner that has really made it big, and I personally love his aesthetic!

Below on the left is a jumpsuit from one of my personal faves, Charlotte Ronson! She knows how to showcase a women's body. In order to wear a jumpsuit you need a pretty rockin' bod but if you can pull it off try a suit separate. On the right is a jumpsuit from Lacoste, I love how they extenuated the waist with the bright red belt.



















METALLIC-


Here are two examples of the metallic trend. To the left is a very cute cocktail dress by Miss Posh Spice herself: Victoria Beckham. She has made a huge splash onto the fashion scene and I LOVE IT! The dress is two-tone and wonderful, she also knows a women's body. To the right is a fashion legend Diane von Furstenburg, this is a very fashion forward piece that I am in LOVE with, the black sweater and skirt with the POP of metallic is perfect.

Below are two more metallic looks the one on the left is from Christian Siriano. This is a very cute dress for a dinner date or a night out with the girls. VERY Sex and the City if you ask me, def a Carrie dress. I love the collar on the dress, it makes it stand out. On the right is a dress from Luca Luca and is perfect for a Broadway play or a night out with the boy. The neckline makes this dress, the keyhole is placed perfectly and shows just enough skin to make it HOT! HUGE




















Stay tuned through out the week for the continuation of my New York Fashion Week report. I wish I could have done it all at once but I am just too BUSY AHHHHH, tomorrow will be the next instalment! HUGE
