Reminiscing on Warmer Times, My Trip to Spain Last Summer
So last summer I visited Madrid and Callado Mediano in the beautiful country of Spain! European architecture is just breathtaking and while quite jet lagged, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I walked all over the city and visited the markets full of fresh seafood, cured meats and wine. And then I went to the mountains and felt like I was living a dream. Traveling is so much fun, I definitely need to do more of it!

Simple Fit n’ Flare Geometric Dress for Winter
This winter I’ve had fun with this geometric fit and flare dress from Nordstrom (similar red Felicity and Coco dress $118 and blue Topshop dress $80). It’s warm, you can dress it up or down, and the flare makes you feel girly! I love it.

Biker Jackets, New York Street Style and Fur on the Runway for Nolcha Fashion Week Fall 2014
Last week I also caught some of Nolcha Fashion Week. It was a frenzy backstage but as usual everything came together beautifully. I really liked designs by Christian Benner, Leka, and L Catherine London. I love a good statement jacket and Christian Benner and Leka’s biker jackets scream New York City. I was also able to catch up with Christian Benner later and get a closer look at his jackets which have full rock star status. See more photos below!

Sequined Ashish Sweatpants and Bright Yellow Pumps for New York Fashion Week
With the snow being such a mess and this winter being so cold, I wanted to be comfortable even for New York Fashion Week. I wore my Spring 2014 sequined Ashish sweatpants (NEW SPRING 15 VERSION HERE) and my Michael Kors sweatshirt in a very loose outfit for Nolcha and Hernan Lander shows. I just loved these sweatpants. Want to know why? Well, for one, it is a sweatshirt/sweatpant combo, both super soft and easy to wear! Secondly, sequins just make everything better. Not to mention, they are very big on the Fall 2014 runways. We’ve seen sequins bedazzling the runway from Marc Jacobs, Rodarte, Tom Ford and more.
Paired with bright yellow pumps (Saint Laurent $595 or Carvela $167) and my grey Alexander Wang handbag, I had fun with this outfit. Pair them with this Ashish sequined tank top or try another bedazzled sweatpant look with this Marc by Marc Jacobs sequined sweatshirt.
Speaking of comfort, have you entered my winter comfort GIVEAWAY? Only a few days left! I am all about being comfortable and stylish in this horrible winter we are having. Don’t forget to enter and check out more photos of my outfit and favorites from the Hernan Lander show below!

Backstage Pics at Tracy Reese Fall 2014 Show
This week Tracy Reese showed her Fall 2014 Collection full of feathers, sequins, fuzzy fabric and chunky sweaters. It was my kind of comfortable clothing collection. The move to comfort is here to stay in fashion guys. I don’t know if it’s the horrible winter weather we’ve experienced or what but relaxed clothing with a bit of shimmer is what to wear for the winter. Hey, like Marc Jacobs says, happy days are here again.
See more backstage photos including Daisy Lewellyn from the Bravo TV show Blood, Sweat and Heels below!
