I WAS FRONT ROW FOR PRABAL GURUNG DURING NEW YORK FASHION WEEK

Thanks to the internet and the ever-growing digital savvy individuals who know the glory of sharing their clothes with the whole world. Whether we can afford to buy anything or not. Maybe someday I will, you just never know.. Anywho, thank you to Live Runway and all of the designers who are allowing live streaming of their Fall 2011 RTW collections. New York fashion week is on in full force and yesterday I got to watch Prabal Gurung's Fall 2011 presentation LIVE :D
This morning I caught Derek Lam's presentation (post tomorrow), and I'm really looking forward to Betsey Johnson's show tomorrow at 6pm EST on Live Runway.
Here are the looks I feel in love with from Prabal Gurung.



The music was rock and set the tone along with the red and gold glowing runway minutes before Karlie Kloss opened the presentation in the one shoulder sexy red dress. I instantly feel in love with the tights...



Models with the long skirts had a few stumbles, no one fell, thank god. LOVE the long skirts, but will take note as I can be clumsy from time to time.. I really like the colour-blocking trend for Spring/Summer 2011, that is carrying over to Fall 2011, I will definitely be mixing solid colours in 2011.



Prabal showed a lot of great, beautiful furs. I gasped when I saw the knit dress. If I could afford to, that dress would be a must for me..



Prabal's colour palette was very rock n' roll, but very glam-glam-glam! This pink dress with the black bow I can't wait to see if/which celeb I will see it on. I really like the black and green ball gown Karlie Kloss rocked at the end of the show, second last dress to be exact ;) Last dress was this silver-white frock, which for a girl who loves the rock n' roll like me, is definitely a great wedding dress, OR red carpet number...

FRIDAY NIGHT PHOTO BOOTH FUN

Friends from Saskatchewan were in town for business and we met up with them Friday night. They choose a great bar in our neighborhood, which was also having a tequila tasting night, and complimentary photo booth in the back. It took a few drinks to get the guys into it, but crazy went down..

One of our friends visiting is my friend Norma's husband, I stood in their wedding last summer. My boyfriend incidentally went to University with him. Small world :) My friend Norma couldn't visit, she was busy working, so I made this great "I LOVE YOU" story with the bar's photo booth.

Today's outfit post. I'm wearing the Michael Kors tank top I found at Macy's in San Diego!! Under a cardigan, of course.. The cardigan I bought on Monday with a H&M gift card birthday present :D Jeans, Levi's on a NYC trip a few years ago, my new DKNY watch which I also bought at Macy's in San Diego, and last -definitely not least - but you can you can't even see them are a pair of gold bow Juicy Couture earrings to complete the look.

GLAMOUR MAGAZINE MARCH ISSUE

Favourite pages from my March Glamour. Love Diane Kruger, Love the cover..

Spotted inside a patterned jumper, upcoming spring/summer trend? Probably..

LOVE, obsessed, inspired by Jil Sander's Spring 2011 collection. Colour-blocking is definitely a look I will be going for this year. I can't afford these dresses, or long Jil Sander skirts, but will try my hardest to re-create the look at my price point. I love, love, love maxi skirts, so I'm hoping to acquire a lot this season, and hopefully ones in beautiful solid colours.

Diane Kruger is one of my favourite style icons.

Solid, bright colours.. Loves it.. The all yellow look reminds me of my pineapple cup I rocked at my birthday party LOL.
