New York Fashion Week

If you are like me, you have spent the past week glued to your computer and iPhone checking out the latest runway shows from New York Fashion Week. What I would give to be back there again–last year I had the lucky chance to be back stage and it was one of the coolest experiences I have ever had! From the fairytale confetti thrown runway of Monique Lhuillier to going against the norm with Opening Ceremony’s performance piece (read about it here, pure genius), this year’s shows have not been a disappointment.  

There is a lot of trends happening so far during NYFW; from feminine frills and soft color palettes to bold prints and edgy-sporty material looks. Green seems to be a main color popping up on every runway, as well as my favorite trend, which is already in our closets, the basic white button-up. Give a huge thank you to Carolina Herrera for this one, a look we can all pull off. Another major trend, borrowed from the boys and one that I am on board with, the short suit. A very chic and relaxed work to evening look.  

It’s all in the (embellished) details again this year with lots of fringe and feathers with plunging necklines and two piece silhouettes.  As mentioned, green seems to be the hue of the season, but lots of white, orange, and blue/white combination are the seasons color of choice. 

With one week down and another one to go, I am looking forward to seeing more of my favorite trends for the upcoming Spring 2015 season and will be on the lookout for a new trend to pop up. Here are some (but not all) of favorite looks from this past week!
