Yesterday at the NYFW in the tents I was interviewed by Fox 5 about the outfit I was wearing. We had a blast with the Fox journalist Christal Young. What a charming, sweet, fun person. She put me in an excellent mood!

Christal is wearing a gorgeous dress by Temporly of London.

I’m wearing

- Alice + Olivia dress

- black underdress, which I got in Tokyo

- Steve Madden shoes

- Girl with a Jump Rope Handmade Necklace (which I shortened to 14" but it comes as 16")

- Teardrop Earrings

Necklace and earrings closeup

I’m showing Christal my trick of layering dresses if you’d like a mini dress to be longer.

Having a blast. I hope our laugh is contagious!

laughing a lot…

gets even funnier

Pamella Roland Spring 2010

Pamella Roland’s Spring 2010 collection was inspired by Georgia O’Keefe’s floral combinations, white landscapes and New York at night. It was an extensive collection of day dresses with oversize floral elements as well as sparkly night gowns.

I loved that huge bow element

and the fact that it actually wasn’t a dress but … a pant suit

The collar of this jacket is so dreamy. I have a big weakness for these ruffled collars.

The jewelry designer Pamella Roland collaborated with was Isharya. This necklace is stunning and perfect for this dress.

Isharya bracelet

I ran into a friend, fellow fashion writer Erika Lehmann from ChicShopperChick, at the Pamella Roland show. She flew in for the fashion week. We met last year at the New Media Expo in Las Vegas. It was great to hang out and chat.

I’m wearing:

- Diane von Furstenberg butterfly dress

- brand new Lucid New York butterfly necklace

- Lucid New York teardrop earrings

Here is the closeup of the necklace and earrings

Carolina Herrera Spring 2010

The inspiration for the Carolina Herrera’s Spring 2010 collection is one of the most unusual ones I have heard. The designer was inspired by Japanese baskets. The clothes, shoes, bags and belts had this interesting "woven look." The colors amber, rose and caramel were drawn from the sky’s palette at the end of the summer day.

I love this bow

Plastiscines at Alice + Olivia Spring 2010

A French band Plastiscines played at the Alice + Olivia New York Fashion Week Spring 2010 presentation. What an amazing fit! Plastiscines convey a mix of urban and Parisian elegance. Just like the Alice + Olivia collection. From the first words of their song "Loser", we know were dealing with strong, independent women, the women whom Alice + Olivia dresses are for:

"Chaque fois que tu m’appelles, je n’reponds pas… et chaque fois que tu me vois, je te voie pas…"

"Every time you call me, I don’t answer… and every time you see me, I don’t see you… "

Check out their amazing style and energy

Their signature song "Loser"

Alice + Olivia Spring 2010

Tonight I went to the Alice + Olivia presentation held at an open loft space downtown Manhattan. The Alice + Olivia Spring 2010 collection was presented on models, who didn’t walk the usual runway but were hanging out in the cutout Parisian scenes. Street signs, lanterns, bicycles, balloons and even the Eiffel Tower itself were all cut out and used as a mise en scene for the presentation.

I love this picture. I love the pastel rainbow dress but also the beautiful smile of the model. This dress looks so good with red hair.

It seems that spring will be the season of lace leggins

Inside the Tents - NYFW

Comments

in: Christian Siriano Spring 2010, Mikey Pozarik, New York Fashion Week, NYFW, y3, y3 boots

This is the outfit I wore today to the Christian Siriano show:

Top - from a cute French boutique - Cop Copine. It even has a metal tag at the bottom saying "cop." The store is full of cutting edge urban clothes. I highly recommend you visit it when in Paris. It’s on rue du Four in St Germain.

Vest - Urban Outfitters

Belt - Alice + Olivia

Skirt - Armani Exchange

Boots - Y3

Sterling Silver Long Leaf Necklace, handmade jewelry - Lucid New York

I was also wearing my favorite earrings - the sterling silver teardrop earrings. I love wearing them because they’re light, I don’t even feel them and they have this clean, simple look. They look especially good with your hair down.

I cannot begin to tell you how much attention my boots got in the tents and it’s my second season wearing them. Y3 is a Japanese brand, a branch of Adidas. I love them mostly because I can add an edge to an outfit or make a dress look more casual by wearing them. And above all, they are very comfortable.
