So, LUISAVIAROMA and Vogue teamed up recently to show some of the most iconic designer looks on the runway. I just couldn’t help but be in awe with the selection curated by Edward Enninful, British Vogue Editor-in-Chief. From Moncler to Alexander McQueen, there were some gorgeous looks in the show. Which do you like? You can see more of the show here.

Good morning! Have you been watching the fashion month shows? I couldn’t help but notice the floral trend on the runway. Yes, April showers bring may flowers but it’s defintely present on the runway along with the see-through trend. And I see plus-size is being included more and more as well.
I’ve always liked flowers as I used to help my mom plant tulips at my house in Washington, D.C. We also had a cherry blossom tree that would just be gorgeous right around my birthday. Check out my artwork shop, especially my recent Flowers Everyday painting.
Anyway, check out more from the runways below!

Last night’s Met Gala red carpet did not disappoint! Many came dressed in black and white ensembles to honor the late Karl Lagerfeld but others like Salma Hayek above wore bright, fierce colors. I just loved Salma Hayek’s red Gucci dress and think she was definitely among the best dressed on the red carpet last night.
Gigi Hadid donned a gorgeous, custom-made Givenchy dress that was just jaw-dropping. These two looks along with Rihanna’s Valentino number, Janelle Monae’s Thom Browne outfit and Sydney Sweeney’s Miu Miu were among my favorites of the night. Scroll down to see more of these beautiful dresses.

Fringe has been on the runway this season. So have cutouts and sequins. But fringe is certainly making statements this Fall/Winter 2023 New York Fashion Week. Ulla Johnson showed her gorgeous garments and I just fell in love with some of the accessories on the runway. From tie-up flats to bejeweled heels, Ulla Johnson definitely made a statement. What are your favorite details on the runway this season?

This past weekend I had a ball at the South Florida Fair! We went and the weather was just perfect for my Good American sweats. We ate some good food- specifically a giant corn dog, funnel cake, steak quesadilla and lemonade. It was the total cheat meal! We hopped on several of the rides too and it brought out our inner child. The fair is closed now but if you’re in the West Palm Beach area don’t miss it next year. I didn’t even want Monday to come! Check out more pics and video below.

Happy New Year 2023! I hope you are off to a good start. I couldn’t resist but to talk about the lions on the Elsa Schiaparelli Haute Couture Spring 2023 runway show. Supposedly there was some controversy over if the lions’ heads were real- don’t worry they were not real at all. But I’ll tell you one thing, you wear this and you will command a room. Check out how Kylie Jenner styled it above and what has been seen on the runway.

So wow what beautiful clothes were on the runway for this seasons’ Spring/Summer 2023 collections. There were several trends but one of the most prominent in my opinion were bralettes. Cute skirts, bodysuits and dresses featuring cutouts and bralettes were all over the runway this season. Forget a crop top, just go for a bralette. Would you wear one?

So Gucci featured sets on twins in their Spring/Summer 2023 show. This idea is the epitome of creativity. And can we talk about the prints and jewelry? The details are amazing and this show was beautiful. So which looks were your fave?

The colors are bright and bold and you can make sure to be a showstopper in these outfits. Watch the full video here and happy New York Fashion Week!
