Dress: Rachel Roy. Shoes: ACNE. Wallet: Balenciaga.
After checking out the Thuy show at Bryant Park and just missing the Rebecca Taylor show by minutes (due to organizers over booking – grrrrr), I headed across town to the Rachel Roy show, changing outfits along the way. You should have seen me in the back of the mini. I was all arms and legs while the boyfriend lead footed it through Manhattan. I know I must have given drivers an eye full.
I was literally fixing my hair as I stepped out of the car.
The show was fab. Very classic pieces but each given a twist to modernize. LOVED the soft skinny trouser suits and deconstructed blazer references throughout (see the above grey skirt which looks like a jacket slashed in half). I can see that being removed and wearing that gorge grey sequin number alone as a mini.
The above all white suit (very Bianca Jagger) and one long sleeved dress were my two favourites. Two rocker pieces that will never date.
I headed home to rest up and watch the VMA music awards (anyone catch the Kanye thing? wtf?)

LOVE the outfit, the color of the dress is so pretty on you! the boots speaks for itself.
Patricia Ann says:
I saw the Kanye thing. Feels so bad for Swift. :/ But I wish she had said something before MTV ended up cutting it off. :/

Lluviaschick says:
the collection is a little bit of a copycat of Altazurra’s last season, isnt it? a bit dissapointing

Antonia says:
I totally love your dress, love the pockets!! Your hair is like a fashion accessory-I love how you have a totally different look all the time just by changing the style!
Kanye-ugh….what a jerk! Beyonce has so much class and she made him look even worse by allowing Taylor to have her moment when it was supposed to be Beyonce’s. Big thumbs up to her!
