NYFW Favorites.

A fun week came to an end yesterday. The end of NYFW. There were some shows on my must watch list - Prabal Gurung, Edun and Maison Martin Magiela, but my favorite looks came from 3 other shows. 
The first, Michael Kors. If you ever needed more motivation to keep that tummy tight, it would be all the crop tops cropping up for Spring 14.' Look 18 from his show teases with just enough and is so chic, I want to buy the look head to toe.

D & G to the Rescue!

Last night, we planned to meet some friends at a wine bar for an evening of catch-up and conversation. It was simple enough.....no drama, no major planning to see what outfit I would wear...it was just supposed to be relaxing. BUT...it was a Saturday night....and we were going to a very trendy part of town. So, "relaxed wear" translates to: wear something chic but dont look like you took hours to get dressed!

Ah...alas, the search begins....and the Huntress (me) begins her quest for the ulimate i

Craving Consignment

It was a private limo tour for a group of lovely ladies in their 40s. They left the husbands and kids at home and although they were searching for designer pieces, they had no intentions of paying full price. So we headed to some of the most amazing consignment shops in the city.


At first, they had mentioned shopping for vintage, but when I explained to them the difference between vintage and consignment, they decided that it was more the consignment that they were craving. Vintage, I explained,

It was an extremely cold day and the first shopping tour of 2010. A woman from Australia and her husband wanted to do something of interest but unfortunately their choices were very different.
