Walk, Walk, Fashion baby

So if you didn't know there is an event called fashion week for 2015 spring collections going on right now and it is currently been the center of attention since this morning. (see more here) Sorry for the lack of pictures of my actual fashion, I am trying to train my sister to take pictures of me... Any way back to fashion week I will do coverage of EVERY DAY this week of the collections including links to articles and bios of the designers.  Here is a link to the schedule for New York and it has the rest of the fashion week schedules if you are interested.  But there are way more shows than just that and I will only post my favorites.

So first up things from WEDNESDAY  (thank you style.com for keeping me organized)

Looking thought the collections I have not been loving a lot of them because there is *ahem(uses theater teacher voice) no DRRAAAMMMAAA* which is probably because it was more focused on being commercialized and sold in stores.  Which I mean I understand but I want to view a collection that takes your breath away and go "I want to wear that NOW"

Okay my favorites from Wednesday have been whittled down to three every thing is in earth tones and look depressing as all get out, blah, but these collections are actually really fun.  (This is also my first fashion week that I have actually followed so bare with me here).

First up is Red Valentino which has only been going since 2012 but seems to be tailored for a more teenage audience and the quirkiness of the cloths shows.  Here take a look.  These are some of my favorite looks from the collection:


Next up is M Missoni spring collection inspired by Frida Kahlo (which in fashion is more common then you think) but what I love about this collection is its subtle references to her work and the colors which are just brilliant.  I also has an ease to it and best of all PLATFORM ESPADRILLES.  



 Gary Graham described this next collection as "Anne of Green Gables meets Joy Division"  I just love it sooooo much....Take a look...the layers the coats the everything gahhh



The next collection is by Richard Chai Love and it his 10th anniversary of his label which is kind of cool! (I guess he also did something for target?  This collection is a unique mix of men's and women's wear in bold colors and angles which bring about a very laid back/over the top look.  

Another favorite was Creatures of Comfort  and the amazing cactus prints.  This collection has a very preppy feel to it while also being kind of over sized I want one of the sweaters so badly...

 I will post more tomorrow!
