Green is mean, but great for fall 2009

What I love about fall fashions this year, is that our spring and summer trends are flowing quite nicely into fall. Our main trend this whole year has been color, lots and lots of it! From dresses, scarves and tops. All of which have been quite strangely unique in this fashion. But the beloved handbag has not fallen behind! If you watched my television segment on TV Guide this march, you would have seen an array of colorful fashion centered around my chosen designers. Whether you love color or hate it, you can’t escape it! And if you want to add something colorful, but are shy to wear it. Then your accessories come next in line. Inge Christopher has a lovely collection of bright and colorful handbags for fall 2009. From brights, to embossed leather, they’re the perfect day to night bags. Prices range from $150-250 from the collection.

New York Fashion Week Finale: Michael Kors Fall 2009 Collection

Posted on 20 February 2009 by Jacqueline H

What a great way to end fashion week than with designer Michael Kors. I really loved his fall collection. And I really felt that it offered everything a women will need in her fall wardrobe. From great dresses in an assortment of refined and classic cuts. You can wear any of these fine ensembles for work, travel, vacation or evening event. I loved the belts which accented the dress, as well as the fantastic neutral colors. (Gray’s, black’s, white’s, khaki and pink). Which really are so down to earth and so very easy to wear for the everyday women. But that is what Kors is famous for, keeping it simple, but adding the touch of class which isn’t overbearing to wear. The collection was uplifting – from cool casual to puffy cashmere coats. Including some very hot and bright colors in oranges and lime greens. A very well executed fashion show with every look included. Michael knows how to dress a modern women, while keeping it down to earth, but fun as well. What a great way to end New York fashion week for fall 2009! Michael we applaud you with standing ovation my dear!

New York Fashion Week: BCBG Max Azria Fall 2009

Posted on 15 February 2009 by Jacqueline H

Bravo Max! I love this new fall 2009 collection. And I will tell you why. My predictions a few days ago were to see how designers have been affected by our current world economic events. And as you know, fashion is always a great prediction of how the ‘economic’ world is going to fare. Now I am no genie in the bottle and nether are the designers. But what I am seeing here is hope. Gorgeous gold’s, silvers, satins, and grays embrace the runway. Including creams and velvet crush blues, with lovely suede gray ankle boots. Now I say ‘hope’ because I predict an upturn in the ‘classic look’. With a lot of classic designs. Very chic indeed.
And what a great usage of gold. I am seeing a real trend here with the usage of bright metallic being incorporated in the outfit as a whole. Perfectly executed, as the gold portrays a real wonderful fashion trend that we will all being taking advantage of this year. Plus, my prediction of ‘gray’ was very apparent as well. I am really happy to see this color isn’t being overused. But truly being an accent, with the shoes, and a few key pieces. But what positive news in the fashion world! Great things lay ahead!
