NYFW Spring/Summer 2012- Carolina Herrera

There are hundred of designers showing during this NYFW, so it's really difficult for lil old me to talk about every single collection seen on the runway for next spring. Nevertheless, there are some designers worth mentioning because of not only their status on the fashion universe, but also because they tend to be the favorites of celebrities and fashion lovers. 
Carolina Herrera has long been a synonym of understated elegance, with her designs usually having an understated chic allure. 
Her new collection for spring/summer 2012 felt to me that it was a bit more ambitious than her past stuff, with some outfits working wonderfully, and some others just being too busy. Overall, there were some wonderful pieces that could easily be incorporated on a everyday wardrobe, and make anyone's professional and casual look seem much more polished and put together without much effort. Some of the evening gowns were gorgeous, and I am sure to see some being worn by some starlets on a red carpet event. 

This in my opinion is a good example of her bird print working on an outfit without seeming too much. The jacket looks really good. 

Loving this coat. 

When I go back to work, this is the type of outfit I'll be looking forward to wear at the office on the days I don't feel so well. Yellow is such a happy color!

Another chic look for the office, or fun a fun day around town. 

Simple cute dress for the weekend. 

I am in love with this jacket. 

The fit of this dress is simply stunning. 

Casual fridays should always be like this. 

This dress is fierce. It has that "powerful woman on the go" feel. 

This dress is very elegant, yet simple. 

Another casual fun outfit.

Love this coat!

I would wear this dress with the coat above. 

Very beautiful fit. 

Loving the canary yellow. 

This was my favorite gown.

NYFW Spring/Summer 2012- Zac Posen

Fashion Lovers,
Zac Posen has returned to NYFW with a BAM! His collection is simply a gorgeous. I am in lost for words to describe how amazing this collection is. From old hollywood glamour, the colors, the cuts, the fabrics, and everything in between, Posen's collection makes up any girl's dream wardrobe. The collection was mainly comprised of cocktail and evening dresses, but if feeling like a Cinderella is your dream in life, let's just say that every outfit would be a dream come true. 
I am simply in love with every single outfit presented on the runaway, and it's extraordinary how such a young designer has mastered the art of approachable couture. Get ready to see some of the most amazing dresses during the award season, as well as celebrity events around the globe. 
Bellow are some of my favorite looks from the collection, however, it's unfair for me to comment on them because in reality I loved them all. They were all glamourous, chic, or simply delicious. Enjoy! 

I just love it how he is still faithful to his muse Coco Rocha :-)

NYFW Spring/Summer 2012- Diane Von Fursternberg

The big names are now starting to show their faces. Let's start with DVF's collection that walked down the runaway on Sept. 11th. I imagine that the designers who showed on that particular date would've much rather not, however, the true triumph of showing in such a delicate date shows the determination of all Americans, and that as life goes on they keep on getting stronger. 

Her collection had an exotic allure, paired with a splash of vintage early 60's clothes with a modern twist. The theme of choice for next season's trend is obviously the 60's, and it honestly just makes me miss Mad Men a lot. Getting back to DVF, what I like about her collection is that her dresses are all impeccably tailored, clean, but fun at the same time. She played well with colors and tons of fun prints and fabrics. 

Love this knitted top. 

Casual chic as is the norm with DVF. 

A great way to make any outfit interesting is just pairing a basic white shirt with a bright colored bottom and a fun clutch. 

Very beautiful color. I love salmon for dresses, and the greek goddess type cut is gorgeous. 

Loving the fun print, especially the fact that it's not so matchy matchy. 

This one has got that Mad Men retro vibe. 

Very interesting outfit in my opinion. Loving it!

Once again the 60's theme prevails. 

I love this mint colored jumper. It's got that vintage vibe with a modern twist. 

Crisp fresh colored outfit for those hot summer days.

Channeling your inner tomb-boy without compromising femininity. 

Pencil dresses are great for any body shape. It emphasizes curves on all the right places. 

This green is not my favorite color, but I would rock this dress if it came in a brighter shade. 

Hope you're all enjoying fashion week.

NYFW Spring/Summer 2012- Cynthia Rowley

Who said Spring was all about bright colors and whites? If you're a fan of rock & roll, and you would rather wear something with an edge then Cynthia Rowley's runway on September 9th quenched your thirst for classic cool. 
I am loving all the different patterns the satiny silk dresses and blouses, the metallic shades and the leather that went down the runway. I won't say much about the whole show because you can go see it for yourself, but I must say that even though my style of choice is more a classic garments with clean cut lines, I do indulge with the occasional edgy outfit and I wouldn't hesitate in incorporating some of those pieces on my wardrobe next spring. 

This dress is so Carrie Bradshaw in my opinion. Not every girl can pull off wearing a bold print, on a silk-satin dress. A mix of edgy and classic in one dress. 

From this outfit I'm mostly loving the pants. 

This is the t-shirt look with an edge. The pants won't look good on curvy bottoms because of the print going across the hip area, but pair the top with the previous skinny pants and voila! 

I'm feeling this dress a lot. 

I love me some white dress. More than the LBD we all love, I tend to go straight to my LWD instead. 

Love those metallic shorts. 

I know I'm a bit late in reviewing certain shows, but I have been busy shopping for my baby's room, and new furniture for the house. I am in love with my new couch... So comfy! I am definitely going through the nesting phase; fixing the house is all I think about now. 

Stay fashionably cool!
