New York Fashion Week Beauty: Essie for Delponzo S/S 16

September 18, 2015

I had the great opportunity to go backstage at the Delponzo s/s 16 show thanks to Essie

Here are the runway trends that will be big come spring!

Inspired by the holographic embellishments found throughout Delpozo‘s Spring/Summer 2016 collection, Julie Kandalec for essie created a confetti nail look by adding two coats of sparkle on top to the nails. The subtle luminescent glitter stands out on the runway against the garments.

To complement the colorful collection, essie created a coral half-moon nail using tart deco and matte about you on the hands. To complete the overall look, she used one coat of limo-scene on the toes.

Get the Look (Manicure):
1. Apply fist base base coat to clean, filed nails.

2. Next, apply tart deco in a semi circle at the base of the nail.

3. Once dry, apply matte about you.

2. Next, apply one coat of limo-scene.

New York Fashion Week: Josie Natori S/S 16

September 10, 2015

New York Fashion Week Josie Natori

Fashion can invoke a feeling when you wear it or see it. A good designer or design team understands that and plays to that feeling be it sexy, pretty, professional relaxed or in the case of Josie Natori, elegant.

Born Josephina Almeda Cruz, she credits her entrepreneurial nature to the matriarchal society she grew up in along with the support of her close-knit Filipino family. “Women are encouraged to be entrepreneurs,” says Natori of her home country, the Philippines. “My grandmother always said, ‘Don’t put yourself in a position where you have to depend on anyone.” It seemed like serendipity when the very place she grew up, the place that instilled her with the motivation to become an entrepreneur, was also the inspiration for what turned into a successful lingerie collection; a hand embroidered Filipino blouse. Using an Asian aesthetic, Natori was able to build a distinct brand, melding the visual appeals of both the East and the West.

This year’s evening collection is inspired by Asian paintings. The bold brushstrokes are invigorating, the canny, contrasting colors captures the energy of the pieces. The plum blossoms signal spring. The World of Natori uses the finest materials and the most intricate hand-forged embellishments in sexy silhouettes, kimono vests, A-line mini dress, strapless tunics and so much more.

She accessorized with artisanal jewelry that referenced the natural world. While hammered-metal earrings and cuffs rendered as flowers.

This Spring 2016 collection brought out the love of black and white, but also brought us the hint of color that makes this brand so unique and elegant.

Fashion is all about having fun and Cynthia Rowley’s Spring 2012 showing at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York proved just that. The designer managed to weave together a collection that was both girly and edgy and what fashionista doesn’t live for this kind of combo?

Rowley played with florals in the form of blazers, fitted pants and short, A-line dresses. But at the same time, she kicked it up a notch by incorporating gold detailing on little black dresses for a modern twist and even showcased a pair of bold, gold metallic shorts strictly for the girl who isn’t afraid to show off her gams. There were also some mesh leather pieces in the mix, from T-shirts to dresses, which rounded out the collection perfectly.

What are your thoughts on the collection?
