new york fashion week update

did everyone survive new york fashion week?? i know i did. you know how i did? i didn't go to one thing. maybe i'm just jaded and old at this point, but the shows don't really excite me anymore. plus this weather was a DRAG. best to look at the shows like any good lazy person. ONLINE. so here is my recap of NYFW-FALL 2010...

Lot of amazing collections plus a few bombers. i gotta say i wasn't into Alexander Wang...AT ALL. i wasn't into most of the collection last season but there were a few pieces i dug. this season, i don't know what he was thinking. i also wasn't into United Bamboo and i've always been a follower/lover. just found it a bit boring this season. any collections i'm not posting here i either a. didn't like or b. it wasn't on style.com. (where all these lovely photos are from)

ok now onto what i DID like....i'm already noting what i want to find in thrift stores. i need to work on another x-country road trip. loved loved loved all the *velvet* i saw, like in Erin Fetherston. also was into the layering/knits from Rodarte + Thakoon. the 20s took over for Karen Walker, Vena Cava, Peter Jensen + Rachel Comey and i love it! glamour, small hats, boy cut pants, more more more please. exotic prints were also big with Alexandre Herchovitch, Proenza Schouler, and Suno. lastly, didn't love Derek Lam's clothes but damn the shoes! so good! (and i won't even mention all the FUR)

i could go on and on but i'll let the pics speak for themselves...
