Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is in full swing here in New York City, which means we’re seeing dozens of cleverly manicured nails each day.
Yesterday, I spent the afternoon with the SheaMoisture team at the Walgreen’s in Union Square (located at 145th 4th Avenue, between 14th Street and 13th Street).
On Friday, I filmed a TV segment for Telemundo NY focusing on holiday fashions for the whole family. Though we showcased sample looks for mom and dad, we paid the most attention to the kids’ ensembles, to clothes and accessories that are appropriate for family get-togethers but are also whimsical and trendy.
Mexican-American designer Cesar Galindo looked to the future when designing the Spring 2014 CZAR by Cesar Galindo collection, showcased in The Box at Lincoln Center on the afternoon of Monday, September 9th.
After several seasons of ultra elaborate manicures hitting the runways — some boasting holographic, rubbery, or velvety finishes; others encrusted with pearls, sequins, crystals, beads, and glitter; and others featuring intricate hand-painted designs — we’re seeing a return to minimalism for Spring 2014, with a plethora of sheer pink, creamy nude, and soft gray nail lacquers.
Minimalism has dominated the Spring 2014 runways, with nude lips, near-bare lids, mascara-less lashes, and muted fingernails popping up in show after show.
For her Spring 2014 collection, New Hampshire-born designer Tess Giberson played upon the idea of a fashion remix, fusing together an amalgam of different aesthetics — from preppy to grungy, glam, minimalist, sporty, and edgy — in order to create something that defied categorization.
Forget nails encrusted with crystals, coated in icy glitter or boasting intricate color-blocked and half-moon motifs.
Ahhh, New York Fashion Week: the 7-day period when everyone even peripherally linked to the fashion industry shares the same playground.
Earlier today, I head down to ModaListas, the gorgeous boutique into the Limelight Shops, the church-turned-nightclub-turned-marketplace located in Manhattan’s Flatiron district, where we filmed a segment for Telemundo’s “Mujer de Hoy” centered on how to dress fashionably during pregnancy.
