Here's a glimpse of the models getting prepped backstage for the Adam Levine Collection Fall 2015 runway show, presented by Shop Your Way Brands/Kmart at Kia STYLE360 during New York Fashion Week. Michele, lead stylist for Not Your Mother's, took us through hair looks for the show. The girls were styled with natural, beachy and bohemian hair. The guys had that combed through with the hand look, off to the side, which was very natural and effortless.
Of all the H&M collabs, Balmain x H&M is by far the best one and the most sought after! I didn't bother trying to get to H&M in-store or online the morning of November 5th since I did all my damage the night before at the pre-shop event at the H&M at 589 Fifth Avenue.
They only let in small groups at a time and when I finally got in like an hour later, most of the collection was already gone, including my top choice items including the braided rope sandals, navy braided rope jacket, blazer dress and embroidered braided rope top. I quickly scooped up the black velvet top and leather belt.
I stuck around for the re-stock, which was absolute chaos. I felt like I was in the middle of a fashion obstacle course. Everyone was squooshed together, waiting to attack the racks. Kudos to security for keeping everything in check. Only people without any bags or merchandise were allowed in the shopping area to get some pieces. This is where teamwork comes in. I held my friend's items while she went in and grabbed what she could for the both of us. She was able to snag me the white Balmain t-shirt, earbuds and beaded suede sandals. As I was on line to pay, the couple in front of me were going through their items and decided not to get the braided rope dress. That dress ended up being my size, so I picked it right up!
The sizing runs super small, and even though everything fit, I'm thinking sizing up may have been a better fit. I was really impressed with the quality of the collection, including the braided rope, beading and zipper detailing. Even though pricing was steep for this H&M collab, the pieces are just gorgeous. I hope H&M keeps up the momentum and continues to bring us strong collaborations like this one.
Backstage at HSN Presents Serena Williams Signature Statement Collection during Kia STYLE360 New York Fashion Week, Not Your Mother's and Alcone prepped models for their hair and makeup looks. Looks for the show included an up-do, pulled back into a messy chignon, and extensions, with messy big waves with straight ends.
One major trend that Serena was sporting along with her models is fringe! The runway looks included suede and leather fringe jackets, skirts and dresses, hooded ponchos, wide brim hats and distressed and color-blocked details. Spotted in the front row was Drake, Ann Wintour, Gigi Hadid and Lily Aldridge.

On October 10th during New York Comic-Con, the packed panel of 2,400 fans at Hammerstein Ballroom enjoyed a surprise screening of the anticipated first episode of "Ash vs Evil Dead", which premiered on October 31st at 9pm ET/PT, exclusively on STARZ. The first episode was so entertaining, jam packed with horror, comedy, gore, deadites and groovy Ash one-liners. I can't wait to see how the entire season unfolds.
The "Ash vs Evil Dead" panel moderated by Kevin Smith, was joined by executive producers and original filmmakers Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell, along with showrunner Craig DiGregorio, and cast in addition to Campbell including Lucy Lawless, Jill Marie Jones, Ray Santiago and Dana DeLorenzo.
Check out the some of my favorite clips from the panel. Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi talk about "Ash vs Evil Dead" coming to Starz, Craig DiGregorio mentions his favorite part of the whole season and Dana DeLorenzo talks about her character Kelly
Fans ask Bruce Campbell for dating advice, Sam Raimi about shooting mechanical effects, if any women will take the mantle of the chainsaw, and if the events of "Army of Darkness" will ever play into "Ash vs Evil Dead."
Fans ask about: what it's like watching Bruce do his thing, Pablo's character, Ruby's character, Bruce Campbell talks about the recurrence of Sam's car.
