whit spring 2015

i’ve skipped out on the last couple seasons of nyfw, so it was a nice little treat to head out to palm springs this weekend for a special presentation of the whit spring 2015 collection. coincidentally, all of the looks were giving off major resort vibes. the girls literally could have walked right off the runway and fit right in with our surroundings at the parker hotel. and even though i’ve toned down my own personal style quite a bit the last couple of years, i still really love a good print for vacation weekends, or fancy events. so the bold prints and patterns definitely caught my eye and got me thinking about how i’m long overdue for a little getaway myself!

yep, fashion week has officially started and i’m already missing shows. such was the case when i arrived in nyc last night, several hours after the whit spring 2014 presentation had already ended. this was kind of a bummer because as jaded as i might sometimes get over fashion week and the fashion industry in general, i still really love clothes and i still get all anxious and excited filing into those little presentation spaces or crawling into crowded runway seating. especially when it’s a designer i really love, like whitney pozgay. she always has such a fun and carefree aesthetic that sparks my imagination. looking at this collection makes me want to go on an extravagant vacation and wear every single piece while doing totally awesome stuff like drinking silly cocktails poolside or lounging in a hammock. i love the crisp, clean lines and super touristy vibes. it reminds me that i am totally a spring/summer girl. give me easy pieces like printed dresses over layered fall looks any day.

my nyfw: whit fall 2013 presentation

February 7, 2013 9 Comments

and new york fashion week has begun! one of my first shows this season was the whit fall 2013 presentation at the w hotel. the collection was inspired by ’60s icon, marianne faithful, which is definitely right down my alley! i was immediately struck by the cute v-neck pinafores layered over pretty blouses and loved the cool paisley prints mixed with plaid, leopard print, and stripes. now my only regret is that i didn’t get more pictures!

my nyfw: whit spring 2013 presentation

September 6, 2012 6 Comments

one designer that i’ve really enjoyed following the past couple of years is whitney pozgay. she started her career as an accessories and apparel designer at kate spade before moving on to steven alan and eventually starting whit in 2010. last season, she showcased some serious space age styles, and for her spring 2013 presentation, she brought a major dose of tropical paradise with campy prints, clean stripes, and simple silhouettes. added bonus? adorable straw hats by yestadt millinery and cute shoes by marais usa. a trio of favorites that always keep me coming back for more.

my nyfw: whit fall 2012

February 10, 2012 25 Comments

last night, i had the pleasure of attending the whit fall 2012 runway show along with a little sneak backstage to get a look at the hair, makeup, shoes, and accessories. one glance at the array of space age hair dos, and i knew i was in for a good show!

“the collection was inspired by the dreamy and romanticized portrayal of space in pre-moon landing pop culture…the resulting collection is a celebration of imagination and the night sky. the line feautures planetary prints on silks, structured metallics, retro jacquards, and brightly color wools.”

that and the excellent pairing of shoes by loeffler randall and orly genger by jaclyn mayer jewelry, and you’ve got one hell of a show. the mod mini dresses were perfectly retro fun, and i just can’t get enough of that planet print dress!
