Oscar

Last week on The Rachel Zoe Project, Brad compared being at Oscar's show to being in Paris... which is why I am more than honored to be in attendance this year. Earlier this year I got to visit the lovely people at the ODLR offices and saw some of the gowns in person, and I will tell you this- no one does it like Oscar de la Renta.

In all of my recent interviews, I have been asked my favorite designers, and among others I always answer Chris Benz. Why? Look.
Really looking forward to seeing his show this year. If there is anyone I hope to work with this next year- It's him. Fingers crossed.

in my bag

I have been seeing alot of posts on blogs and in magazines featuring what is in everyone's bags. I actually just picked up a new Marc Jacob's bag for my little trip to nyfw ( I was celebrating a very busy work week). Although the one below isn't my MJ, it's by Foley and Corinna, I thought I'd post some things that are always in my bag (including a fav- laura mercier's hydratint, burberry london, and, am I the only person who fills my bags... with bags??)
inspired by this pretty pic below.

charles david

Today I am working on a new project for dace, and also the new dkny pr girl. THIS is multitasking at its finest. Yesterday I began receiving my first emails about nyfw, which quickly got me thinking about fall. I will embrace every bit of sun I have left but I am looking fwd to picking up a pair of these Charles David boots when it cools off a bit (a lot).
