NY MERCEDES BENZ FASHION WEEK... SPRING 2014


I know... We cannot wait for temperatures to fall (at least just a little) to rock all of our beloved winter pieces… Lots of fantastic wool, knits, leather… Warm leggings, cute dresses, hats, gloves and scarves… Oh, of course, and those TDF pair of high boots in that special place of our closets! Uffff…. Sure the time has arrived, but…

While we daydream about our sensational outfits for the chilly weather, we are so daydreaming about our next SPRING 2014 ensembles too… How could we not, since Mercedes Benz Fashion Week turned our fashion world around with all the superb collections from those New York designers... We can never get enough of them!!!
Let me give you an idea of what our favorite fashion-geniuses proposed and what is coming for us to wear after the cold weather is g-o-n-e…

1. Besides SUPERB, MAGNIFICENT WHITE...

2. CROP, CROP, CROP: Super good news for those of you who have not entered your advanced 30’s (not that there is something wrong with it, oh no! ), and with hot six-packs… Girls, you will have so many options to show off your hard work in the gym (and after your every night crunches, ouch!). Designers went crazy when it comes to exposing their ladies’ midriff. So cool! (Images: Jil Stuart & Christian Siriano)

3. MIDI SKIRTS & DRESSES: This very classic length used to be related to ‘restriction’; but today it is just the epitome of SOPHISTICATION; a SOPHISTICATION that could be wear at any age. Designers again made sure EVERY LADY could pull-off a MIDI skirt or dress and yet look absolutely updated, glamorous and even EDGY!  Colors, cuts, detailing made MIDIS look so amazing!

4. POPS OF COLORS: Runways delighted the hungry-for-fashion public with extraordinary bright, neon, vivid, happy COLORS. Designers injected them in their collections through whimsical combinations, with neutrals, in blocks, or head-to-toe…  (Images: Edun & Noon by Noor)

5. FOREVER B&W: Okay, you could be HAPPY eternally! This elegant, timeless, ultra-chic and ‘forgiving’ duo was literally in every runway... OMG!!! Black & White, yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever... Cheers for that!!! (Images: Edun & Prabal Gurung)

6. PASTEL: Yes, PASTELS reigned in so many runways… Not for a second in a ‘too girlish’ way; but in ultra-modern manners ; especially when combined with neutrals (nude, gray, beige, white…) and with strong colors such a black. PASTELS are so ON right now…  I love them! (Images: Lela Rose & J. Mendel)

7. SHEER: There is nothing sexier than to SHOW A LITTLE but NEVER  MUCH skin… Always leaving space for the imagination… And TRANSPARENCIES are so very perfect for this. Of course, SHEER pieces tend to be shown a little over the top in the runway shows; but if we make sure to place those SHEER spaces in the right and most beautiful places of body without showing ‘too much’; we will look sensational! (Images: Helmut Lang & Nanette Lepore)

7. BLOSSOMS: FLORALS went strong on catwalks… Something that make many of us super happy; not only because they are fresh, glamorous and chic; but because designers made sure to offer BLOSSOMS for every kind of lady; from PRINTS with classic boosts to more EDGY ones; especially through cool combinations. I just A-D-O-R-E this trend. A little tip: Mix FLORALS with edgy details/accessories to keep your look modern! (Images: Michael Kors & Marc Jacobs)

LIFE IS SUCH A RUNWAY!!!
