So I dragged my all the way from Brooklyn to 55th and West Side Highway to catch the Wang show, and soaked myself in the rain trying to get a cab on the way back. But it was well worth it. One of his most sophisticated and elevated seasons yet. Sports themed, the models all strutted their stuff in athletic knee-high socks. There were other references, racerback necklines, perforated leathers, athletic taping down the sides of leggings, backpacks, and hoodies. Best of all, were some amazing ponchos and billowy jackets with oversized pockets. And the shoes.....!!

One of my favorite jackets, a cotton twill cropped jacket at front, and denim poncho at the back.

The shoes were part bootie, part sneaker heel

CATCH UP!

So I know I haven't been very diligent with postings lately (does anybody read this other than me?) but this should bring you up to speed...So Monday was the video shoot for Terry Lynn's' "Jamaican Girls," shot by Director Nabil Elderkin ("Paranoid," and "Champion" by Kayne West, Black Eyed Peas "Like That") and styled by me. It was a bit of a crazy day starting at 8:30 am trying to get in all my showroom pieces and ending at 1:30 am. I styled about 20 extras too, so it was a bit insane. Luckily my friend Jen was there helping with casting and Cyd and the girls stopped by later. Here's a sneak peak----->

Extras covered in neon body paint under the black light for the club scene (...was left spot cleaning some of the rental pieces all the next morning)

The next day I came home to a surprise in the mail, my issue of Spurr was in! I flipped through to somewhere in the middle to find the pics I had shot with a contributing editor a month ago. I normally hate how I look in photos but they were actually not half bad!
