about us, smashin' fashion, travel

And the rest of it…

And you thought all we did was hang out a Lincoln Center?!!  Oh no, not a moment of my precious kid-free time was wasted .  We caught a live taping of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, soaked in the sights of the Brooklyn Bridge, enjoyed authentic pierogies (sweet potato and cheese) and borscht at a little restaurant called Little Poland.  (please tell me you all have tried pierogies?)  We were all over town…Columbus Circle, East Village, Diamond District, Mid Town, Canal St., Soho and the Upper West Side.  And we shopped (obviously), ate square pizza and made Clive take us home in his pedicab!  Whew!

Models of the Runway

Here’s a look at the ladies who walk the walk…the ones that don the amazing designs that will set trends for seasons to come.  The faces on the runway and in our magazines today are not the same as in the 90’s.  Supermodel has been replaced with Top Models.  The look of today is editorial, intriguing and really, she’s just the sometimes-odd looking tall girl who sat behind you in history class.

Freja Beha Erichsen

#5 Karlie Kloss

#5 Abbey Lee Kershaw (Jenn’s fav)

These are the looks we seen coming off the runway.

Carolina Herrera–Asian inspired red eye shadow with slick intricate hair

Betsey Johnson—tough but girly–bright colors, windblown braids and ponytails

Badgley Mischka—white eye, pink lip and “C” shaped blush–ultra glam 70’s frizz

Chantal Stafford Abbott

Vera Wang—ethereal look–metallics, dark brow and big hair

Freja Beha Erichsen

Abbey Lee Kershaw

Andie Arthur for Rosa Cha—tropical eye using electric blue and burnt orange paired with a messy top bun.

Frida Gustavsson

Marc by Marc Jacobs—bleached brows, strong crayola lips and voluminous frizzy hair

Frida Gustavsson

Luca Luca—pastel makeup edged with black—crimped twisted chignon

oh la la!

A few seasons ago I snapped a pic of a total cutie and posted it along with the rest of my Fashion Week pictures on Facebook. I was stunned to get comments and find out that he was Taylor Fuchs, from lil’ ol’ Saskatchewan…White City, in fact…about 2 hours from where I grew up. If you’re from a small town…you understand that it is not often that someone from your area makes it into the international modelling world-and its pretty exciting when someone does. I’ve kept my eye out for Taylor ever since….and this year I caught him coming out of the Micheal Kors Fashion Show. Besides being totally smokin’ he was charming, humble and very sweet. Go Saskatchewan!

Here are a few others that make the heart pound a little harder;)

Sean O’Pry. I think many will agree that he is one of the top male models in the industry right now. If he isn’t opening Perry Ellis at NY Fashion Week than he is gracing the massive posters at your local H&M, as well as doing campaigns for Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs,Calvin Klein…the list goes on. Besides all of this…he is one of my favorites. Year after year he is sweet, talkative and a total gentleman, in fact…he really needs to meet my sister! 😉 Swoon!

 

Another Canadian!  Marcel Castenmiller also walked in the Michael Kors Show. Known for his androgynous look he’s been featured in Kenzo, Theory and Gucci eyewear…just to name a few. Nice work Edmonton!

 

The German born Lenz Von Johnston…He is usually the most goofy and interactive of the bunch…this year he was pretty quiet….quiet perhaps, but I love his look.

Max Rogers…watch for him in the Tommy Hilfiger Tailgating ad campaign

 

 

Models goofing off outside of the Marc Jacobs Show.

…and by the way?!  Is this not the funnest blog I’ve done so far or what?!  Which one is YOUR favorite..?

MBFW Celeb Sightings September 16, 2010

Last day….sob…I have no words. Tres sad.

In previous years, the last day of fashion week is pretty slow. So…we scooted out halfway through the day to take in a Jimmy Fallon taping-which is always a great time! The other highlight of the day was the Gwen Stefani show…which brought out a ton of paparazzi and made us fight for our shots. Elbows in the side, camera bags in the face, feet stepped on…oh, the glamour of fashion week!

The very handsome Gavin Rossdale, who took his time to take LOADS of photos with his fans.

 

Debbie Harry. I love the first picture…it portrays a bit of the chaos that was at the back door; Dark..rainy..lots of security..huge umbrellas..loads of people..security…cameras everywhere.

 

And finally…and I mean FINALLY…out came the lady of the evening Gwen Stefani.
