Best of Fashion Week Fall 2012 – The Beginning

February 10, 2012 in fashion show, Fashion Week, Uncategorized

I have never been lucky enough to attend New York Fashion Week. But in this day and age I’m lucky enough to be able to follow the events online. From Twitter to Livestream and now Instagram and Pinterest I’m able to get a taste of what it would be like to be at the shows. I’m always inspired by not only the show and studio shots, but also photos of the parties and street style. So, for the third season in a row, I’m bringing you a “best-of Fashion Week” straight from my own living room in Portland. Enjoy!

The unofficial first day of New York Fashion Week started off with IFBCon, put on Independent Fashion Bloggers. I was able to catch most of the live stream, which was great because there was a ton of good advice. Check out my live tweeting session of highlights on Twitter.

Best of Fashion Week – Spring/Summer 2012 (part 1)

September 14, 2011 in fashion show, Fashion Week, New York

Once again, I’ve spent the last 5 days glued to my twitter feed, checking out the feeds of all the lucky ones who made it to this season’s New York Fashion Week. I only managed to watch the live feed of one show, but I was able to live vicariously through twit pics, instagrams and, now, Tumblr. Here are some of my favorites from the Spring/Summer 2012 shows.

If you are like me, last week you were glued to your screen following along with all of the New York Fashion week happenings. While I missed out on the festivities yet again, it was a treat to follow along with the happenings on my Twitter Feed. Just like last year, I saved my favorite Twit Pics from some of fashion media’s elite. This Fall seems like it will be the year of the glamorous gown. What do you think?

The Secrets of New York Fashion Week 2010

September 17, 2010 in fashion show, Fashion Week, New York

Ah, fashion week. Unfortunately I didn’t have the chance to go and be there in person. If you are like me you were probably glued to your Twitter account, following the coverage from Fashion’s heavy hitters, living vicariously and enjoying every second. Every celebrity shoulder brush, every exclusive backstage sneak peek, every colorful show finale – it feels like you are there. I’ve gathered some of the best TwitPics from the past week and painted my own picture of the New York Fashion Week that was.
