The scene backstage at Peter Som? Controlled pandemonium. Ten models were late (it's the mid-week slump, after all!) so makeup artists Gucci Westman and hairstylist Guido were a bit antsy. But it all turned out...

Nail Storm

Mon dieu, those are a LOT of nails. No surprise, since the guru of nails, Jan Arnold of Creative Nail, was giving me a nail by nail breakdown of the shows. Generally, the look breaks...

A Fine Romance

Marchesa's presentation on Monday really brought out my ultra-feminine sensibilities (like my girly girl side ever goes away?). The collection featured every kind of on-the-town dress you could dream of. Even dreamier if you...

Smile for the Camera!

I don't know why certain fashion folk think that Sasha is a meanie (could it be that her signature look is a scowl?)... My impression of her was that she's warm, friendly, absolutely gorgeous...

Brown Town

Just a little somethin'-somethin' I noticed at Jill Stuart... I think she has an affinity for brunettes! Girls overwhelmingly had gorgeous dark-hued hair... Luckily for me, I already have dark hair... I'm so on trend...

Swinging 60's

Makeup artist extraordinaire Charlotte Tilbury is the epitome of cool, with flaming scarlet hair that's always mussed just so, kohl-lined eyes, and awesome rock and roll clothes. So it's no surprise that the look...

Karen Walker: "Impeccable"
