this one time at ny fashion week...

An anonymous source said that a high level, heavy hitting fashion editor was overhead cringing and bantering about a fame whoring B-lister-trying-HARD-to-be-an-A-lister "entertainer" during an encounter at NY Fashion Week and said this about her/him: 

"I have never seen someone try so hard for attention while looking so atrocious at the same time."

And whom may this editor and celebrity pair be? 

I'll leave it at that but for the record: hahahahaaaaaaaa!!!!!

Designer duo Alan Eckstein and Timo Weiland have made me weak at the knees! Their RTW 2012 collection marked the first time they've done a runway show and boy was it quite the cherry popping! Known for their down to earth vibe, this time around they amped up the volume BIG TIME! The contrast of bright reds, mustards, and aquas mixed with forrest greens, browns, and blues was genius! The superb detailing in this collection was also a first and damn phenomenal for the TW team. The chiffon finishes, chambray glory, floral prints, plus the shoes and necklaces... just superb and FUN!! It's urban. It's beachy. It's BOTH!!!  Even though it evokes beach waves, I can see a person wearing it in the urban bustle of any city. It's like beach bunnies/bums decided to grow up, get a job, and move into the city to become chic beach bunnies/bums to surf through the metal crowds. Phen.Nom.En.Al! Plus I'm heavily crazy in love with the floral greatness in the mensgear. KILLER!

Gretchen Jones, project runway season 8 winner, fall/winter 2011.

Last season's winner of Project Runway just unveiled her first post-show collection for the Fall/Winter 2011 season and I am very pleasantly charmed. 

I absolutely dig the relaxed and flowy silhouettes going on. There's something extremely sexy about a girl who has clothes just sitting on her and waving back and forth in nonchalantness as she struts right past you on the streets. It's like an Arizona chic modern wave that just caresses you on the face. Subtle perfection at it's finest. I love the rich earth-toned color palette, the styling, the plentitude of seperates, and the wearability is just real and superb for the simple yet modernly directed woman. Again, subtle perfection. 

Get some.

P.S.
I think I also may be in love with this collection because the model is definitely evoking a cross between Olivia Palermo and Blair Waldorf in the face-- two of my Sexy-Can-I infatuations. Haha. ;) 

Check out more of the collection here.
