Maybelline House with Adriana Lima at New Your Fashion Week

On September 10th, during New York Fashion Week, I stopped over at Maybelline House, for a meet & greet with my favorite model, Adriana Lima! At the space guests were able to preview Maybelline's newest products, including the Lemonade Craze eyeshadow palette and get makeup touch-ups, enjoy refreshments and snacks, and create customized tees and totes. Part of the Maybelline House was styled as a beauty-ful and feminine version of the New York City Subway.

Desigual Spring / Summer 2015 at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week

Desigual Spring / Summer 2015, designed by Christian Lacroix, is inspired by nature's flora and fauna, presenting a colorful, multi-cultural bouquet. The collection focuses on warm weather with daisies in bloom, desert roses, tropical hibiscus and Mexican dahlias; flowers freshly cut from an imaginary garden. 

The collection is a blossoming kaleidoscope, inspiring happiness, one bloom at a time, with jade, white and onyx tones filled with poppy red, saffron, and teal. Amongst the colorful prints were neutral tones, including a black and white kaleidoscopic mini, A-line tank dress, embroidered tulle tops (I love this paired with the crinkle chiffon kimono jacket) and a black lace top with contrasting scallop crochet detailing.

Desigual for me is always the most playful, fun and colorful of shows, with Adriana Lima hitting the runway with the opening and closing looks.
