NYFW: Seen On The Scene

The shoe scene at New York Fashion Week is beyond! There was so much great footwear, mama forgot she had her camera around her neck to capture it all as I was just in awe. From embellished open-toe booties to a good ole pair of fuzzy wuzzy's I spotted it all.

And of course, the street style looks were at an all time high. Folks really stepped out this year, I haven't been inspired or felt shabby in a while! Time to step my game up.

Flip through the hit-list and get inspired.

FTBUP NYFW RECAP ROUND 1: RUTHIE DAVIS, WILLIAM OKPO AND TIBI

Hey lovas, its been a crazy, busy, high-drive week full of fun and fashion! FTBUP hit up a few shows and presentations and even got some behind-the-scenes beauty action at one of my fav labels, Tibi. Based on what I've laid my eyes on thus far, Spring 2015 is shaping up to be a season full of pastels (nothing new here), structure, and brights.

The beauty look is understated with statement eyes, neutral faces - seeming to be a carry over from Fall 2014 - and hair that pops (see my William Okpo images below). 

In the shoe department I witnessed everything from neon-candy colored platforms at Ruthie Davis to Braided D'Orsay styled pumps at Alexander Wang (courtesy of fashion favorite, Nina Garcia's Instagram account). 

Cheers to the first week. Indulge and check back for mid-week and final recap next week!

THURSDAY, 9/4 RUTHIE DAVIS SHOE PRESENTATION - THE HIGHLINE 

Never one to disappoint, Ruthie Davis serves sex-kitten on a platter with this shoe collection lucite heels included!

FRIDAY, 9/5 - WILLIAM OKPO 268 MULBERRY STREET

The dynamic sister duo, Darlene and Lizzy Okpo, have yet to disappoint. This beautiful collection was full of pretty pastels, quaint details, subtle yet loud make up and plenty of clean, structured lines. Eponymously named after their father, and coveted by the ever so stylist Solange, every fashionista seeking to differentiate themselves in the crowd should be sure to pick-up a piece or two. 

SATURDAY, 9/6 BEHIND-THE-SCENES @ TIBI  - HIGHLINE STUDIOS

The beauty looks behind-the-scenes at Tibi was understated and natural. Fresh, sleek skin, neutral color palette and straight pulled back hair read minimalism at its best. As soon as my hair grows back I'm definitely going to give the sharp look a shot. Hair: Aveda and Nails: Jin Soon
