October 6th - Love your ego, you won't feel a thing.

Olá,

I've realized that I haven't done much on the blog rather than Fashion Week... and that I haven't even said that I'm already living in San Francisco.


I've been here for a month now and school has already started.. so far so good! I'm learning tons about fashion!


This is the look I pulled off yesterday, this sweater was mu first purchase here and I love it, it's kind of cropped and the silver color is amazing and since silver can never be too much I decided to put silver cuffs over the sweater.


My teacher loved it, hope you love it too!

BILL BLASS

Classic with nautical influences. This Bill Blass show was beautiful, glamorous and extremelly elegant.

CALVIN KLEIN

Calvin Klein in known for its minimalist look, for next spring the collection continues minimalistic but with some beautiful "intimmate apparel" details.

ISAAC MIZHARI

Amazing gowns, for a perfect red carpet moment. I loved the background, it was very different from what we usually see. Especially when it matched with the dress.

MARC JACOBS

The show took place in a "old dance hall" and what I most loved about it was the unusual choice of fabrics, Marc used a lot of plastic which was quite interesting.

NAEEM KHAN

If I ever get a red carpet moment I want to wear Naeem Khan. I always love what he does, in my opinion it is and will continue to the best gown glamorous designer.

RALPH LAUREN

Oh Ralph. The softest of the color palette I've seen in this fashion week. Very glamorous and old fashion looks, again reminiscing of the good old Hollywood era.

3.1 PJILLIP LIM

Taken constructuion to a whole new notch. If you go through the collection it looks really simple, lovely but simple. But if you look closely the details in them garments are amazing, it's that denim vest it looks normal, when you check it out up close, it has all this new ideas into it.

CHADO RALPH RUCCI

A very chic collection for evening wear mostly. Very glamorous, it even reminded me of the old hollywood glamour.

ELIE TAHARI

 I loved the game with proportions on this collection. Mixing structured coats with flowy dresses is always a favorite of mine.

GAP

 Gap is going through a lot of changes and trying to reposition itself in the market. I  could totally see the change in their clothes and by change I mean improvement. They're much more hip and modern. Perfect for the everyday, simple but still stylish.

J. MENDEL

 Beautiful collection. Minimalistic and so elegant. The details were beautiful and very subtle. If I could I totally would have all of the collection in my closet.

MICHAEL KORS

 Michael Kors. Hum.. it was not my favorite collection from him, a little bit to safari for me. Of course there were some pieces that I really liked, especially the bathing suits.

PHILOSOPHY

Like always a very romantic, dreamy and feminine collection.  

PORTS 1961

 Minimalistic, simple yet daring. Really liked it.

PROENZA SCHOULER

 It was almost as if we had retroceded a few decades. Definetely retro and subtly glamorous.

REED KRAKOFF

I loved this. The materials used in this collection are exquisite. Again very simple and minimalistic but so elegant ant put together.

BADGLEY MISCHKA

As always Badgley Mischka's collection for spring, summer is very glamorous. Done for a city, sophisticated girl/woman. I loved the mix of the turquoise with the mettalic.

BIBHU MOHAPATRA

Subtle is the word that best describes this collection. Most trends were present in this collection but done in a subtle and classy way.

DIESEL BLACK LABEL

 Going back to basics. This collection was intended by the designer to be very true to the brand main style. Using some cool materials and colors, it played a lot with layering and proportions.

J. CREW

I've liked J. Crew clothes for a while now and this collection did not let me down. It was chic yet fun, girly yet boyish, sophisticated yet retro. The bottom line is I want it!

KAREN WALKER

Clean and easy going. This collection is very wearable and yet with little effort completely put together.

MICHAEL ANGEL

I gotta be honest I have never heard of this brand but I really, really liked the collection. The prints were amazing without being overwelming, the mix of fabrics was really cool and on top of that the pictures were just great.

OSCAR DE LA RENTA

I had a bit of difficulty selection this looks and it wasn't because I didn't like them but rather that I liked so many of them.I loved the puffy skirts paired with cropped tops. The only thing that let me a bit confused was that a lot of the looks looked like they could be on the fall, winter collection. But beautiful though.

RODARTE

I'm sure the designers must feel the pressure, there has been a lot of expection of this brand in ther past few seasons. I was dying over this collection, there were some looks that I liked, but honestly I didn't love it like I loved the fall/winter... 

THEYSKEN'S THEORY

I don't think this collection needs any "explanation". It is what it is, and what it is, is pretty amazing. And I'm sure that every girl that sees it, wants to look just like that.

TIBI

Tibi always offer good fundamental pieces for our wardrobe. Clean, simple looks but this time she also mixed it up a bit with materials and played with printed fabrics, like the "pajamas" pants mixed with the leather top on the last look.

VERA WANG

I wasn't expecting this from Wang's collection. It had a lot of futuristic garment's but still with the what she's known for, feminine and flowy.

ARAKS

Suits with shorts and bottom up shirt are without a doubt one of the biggest trends emerging, they have appeared in almost every show. And Araks was no excuse, presenting us with some really good choices. I loved the prints!

CARLOS MIELE

Beautiful glamorous fabrics and sillhouettes were offered by Carlos Miele as it was already expected. I especially liked the cover-ups offered for swuimwear.

DONNA KARAN

I really enjoyed this show, I actually love Donna Karan wether it is this label or DKNY. The pieces are just so wasy to wear, you don't have to much thought into it and yet you'll look amazing. I'm especially dying over the bathingsuit.

MARC BY MARC JACOBS

MARC by Marc Jacobs is Marc Jacobs collection for a public younger than the average Marc Jacob's women. With that said, this collection was fun and bubbly. Though there werent' a lot of patterns, the colors were fun and young.

OHNE TITEL

This was an interesting collection. I loved the geometric patterns and shapes created. The feather necklaces were definetely a win for the show.

RACHEL ROY

Without no doubt Rachel Roy likes dressing a feminin woman. This collection reflected that very well, we saw some of the emerging trends, like the printed pants, but the whole look was very girly, not following the trend girl meets boy. Which is actually kind of cool.

RACHEL ZOE

This was Zoe's first fashion week presentation. And in my opinion a good start, not the strongest collection I've seen during the week BUT it definetely had some good pieces and the styling was right on the money (as it should be or isn't she one of the most famous stylists).

REEM ACRA

Reem knows how to dress a powerful yet glamorous and sophisticated woman. Beautiful ornamentation in the garments.

ZERO + MARIA CORNEJO

I'm becoming a big fan of this designer. All the collection was really pretty, the colors screamed summer, the clothes were flowy. Minimalist, but it totally works for me!
