NYFW: Day Two

Seems like some of the designers were channeling their inner Beetle Juice swag, by incorporating black and white stripes in their designs. Stripes never get old by the way. In my opinion, it is a textile pattern that will go with any print. Still, as always, each designer distinguised themselves to provide a visiual buffet for the next big trends this coming Spring/ 2014. Just don't say Bettle Juice three times.

The trends I am seeing so far:

• Red
• White on White
• Bold Geometric shapes 
• Ruffles
• Stripes 
• Soft hints of lace

Color Palette:

• Red,White, Teal, Baby Blue, electric Blue, soft pink and nudes

Make up:

• Plum colored lipstick
• Orange lipstick
• Natural/Nude

Print, Neon and Autumn OH MY!

Here comes the fall again, falling on my head like a memory....Just referencing "Here comes the rain again" 80's song from the Eurythmics. Summer came and went, but my favorite season is autumn. The trees turn colors, the air is crisp, the sunlight is more bright; giving a luscious yellow glow.
Autumn's palette is mostly brown's, deep reds, greens, orange and mustard yellow, but I do like to add some brights as well. Why not? Why can't you add some neon pink to fall colors? Autumn always compels me to have more fun getting dressed daily. Can't wait to bring on the layering too.

Speaking of bright, these neon pink pants from HM are so bright they almost look photoshopped, but they are not. None of these photos are filtered or adjusted. I've been using my poppy coach bag more then ever. This one I purchased when I won 3rd place in a polyvore contest ---> (Here)

 Lady In Red

I remember getting picked on in high school for the way I dressed. I remember all the names and

all the weird looks. But it never stopped me from being me. Even now as an adult I get those "eww what is she wearing looks" , but this is me. I am not dressing for attention, nor to be "different". This is how my mind works when I see clothing items, color and textures. To me it makes perfect sense and it is ok if others do not get it.  So if your getting picked on for what you wear or for who you are, don't let that get to you. Staying true to yourself is the best thing you can do. Now I just need to find high school photos and get rid of these roots...eekkkk!
