NYFW Fall 2012 Day 1: Sightings, Shows, Soirees, Street Style

Hey all! Here in NYC, we're in the thick of New York Fashion Week and my head hasn't stopped spinning yet. Below is a brief recap of what I got into on Friday, and  Here goes:

Sightings

At the Nicole Miller F/W 2012 show, I spotted legendary model Beverly Johnson front row. What an honor to meet her!

Backstage, I got a snap of designer Nicole Miller who showed some awesome 70's-inspired pieces for her Fall/Winter 2012 collection. 

Also spotted Wendy Lam of Nitrolicious backstage.

Shows

I was giddy for Rebecca Taylor, Rebecca Minkoff, and Nicole Miller on Friday. All three shows gave me life. stay tuned for the full show reviews soon.

Street Style

I didn't have my camera with me on Friday but thankfully Essence Street Style snapped a shot of me on my way out of the tents. I was rocking my new fave Zara cape, a Damn You Alexis dress, Steve Madden pumps, and my Elliot Luca bag. Check it out HERE at Essence.com


Soirees

On Friday evening, LuLus.com hosted a really cute Blogger Style party at the Openhouse Gallery in Soho. Filled with Hypnotiq Harmonie-sponsored cocktails, free beauty giveaways, raffles and items, each guest went home with a FREE fashion piece courtesy Lulus.com. I was too hyped!
