Post NY Fashion Week

Went to the Coterie Trade Show this weekend post New York Fashion Week. There were thousands of companies and retailers in one convention center. Being able to walk around and see the amazing designs up close was divine, and I found it quite interesting to see how the process of buying and selling worked at the show.

I think that it's a career that I am interested in, and although many of the industry people were self-involved, entitled, and rude....... a lot of them were very sweet! I really enjoyed the experience, and would love to get into the fashion industry one day.

The outfits were great, I didn't have my camera (stupid me), but there were some killer Marni shoes being rocked with tights by one woman. I couldn't stop staring.

In other news...
last week i went to the Bloomingdale's big brown bag sale and snagged a Kain long sleeve black shirt, a Kain taupe kimono cardigan and some Community skinny jeans for amazing prices.

I love Kain Label, their garments are so amazingly soft and luxurious.

I need to stop spending money on shoes...and start buying furniture for my apartment

oy vey... the minute i spent some money... i went crazy with it.

Exhibit A:

Frye Paige riding boot in black. In my defense... i got them NEW never worn on Ebay in my size for 200 bucks... thats 150 less than retail. Plus- i've been wanting them for years.

Exhibit B:

"Vanya" strappy pumps from.... TARGET. That's my only excuse on that one. 25 bucks- I couldn't resist the stretchy cross straps on these babys.

Exhibit C:

Victoria's Secret khaki pants...

and finally Exhibit D:

BCBGirls "Edmund Sandal" @ nordstrom (on sale)

I've lusted after Marni shoes for so many seasons i can't count... i almost caved and bought a pair this summer... but this obvious knockoff will do for now

So... no more shopping until I get back to NYC. There are a few things on my wishlist including:

Navy Blazer

Black Blazer

tanks and vnecks from Kain label

ciao!
