The big event was held at Mister H inside the famous Mondrian SoHo. The hotel’s Feng Shui decor served as the perfect ambiance with its eclectic accents and gorgeous collection of Chinese furniture.

New York Fashion Week is fast approaching and I’m excited to announce that I’ll once again be an official member of the press! 

This season is very special for me because it will be my 7th year attending the shows and being inside the famous tents. 

I remember the first time that I set foot inside the tents. It was back in 2006 when New York Fashion Week was still held at Bryant Park. The minute I walked in I was completely mesmerized by this unbelievably glamorous world of ultra stylish guests and unforgettable fashion shows. It was also the first time in my life that I felt like I completely belonged. I knew it was my destiny to be in fashion and ever since then I’ve worked hard to ensure that I always would.

HUGO by HUGO BOSS pushed the boundaries of futuristic proportions quite literally for their new Fall 2013 collection. Note worthy pieces for women included structured shoulder jackets and cutout dresses.

LR. Paris held a fabulous party at Bahr Che wine bar in New York this past week. I had the honor of attending the event which was intended to celebrate and debut LR. Paris to the press and VIP guests. 

Since 1959 LR. Paris has become one of the world’s foremost leaders in gift creations for both businesses and individuals. They collaborate with artisans from around the world to create some of the most beautiful and distinctive products. LR. Paris's current client roster includes: President Obama, Hermes, Harry Winston, Moulin Rouge, Guggenheim and the Prince of Monaco, amongst many others. This is all just the beginning for the LR. Paris company as there will be much more to come in the months to follow.

Guests were treated to cheese and Bahr Che's famous wine while mingling around the room. 

Such a chic party called for an equally chic ensemble so I decided to wear my grey wrap gown by Taylor Dress.

HUGO BOSS Fall 2013 Fashion Show + Memories of Being a HUGO BOSS Fashion Blogger


HUGO BOSS, one of my favorite fashion houses will be having their Fall 2013 Fashion Show this Thursday, January 17, 2013.  

Their upcoming Fashion Show brings back so many incredible memories for me. Exactly two years ago at this time I was getting ready for my first trip to Berlin to be one of five official HUGO BOSS bloggers. I was representing the United States and was joined by four other Fashion Bloggers from Berlin, Netherlands, Canada, and Singapore. 

I remember when I was first chosen to be one of the five. I couldn't believe that I was picked out of thousands of other Fashion Bloggers. It was such a dream come true experience to be whisked away to Europe, tour Berlin with the HUGO BOSS team, report live from the HUGO BOSS Fashion Show and meet celebrities like Hayden Christensen, Tilda Swinton and Chloë Sevigny. 

My entire social media coverage was streamed live on hugoboss.com as well as Germany’s vogue.com

The trip completely changed my life forever and made me realize that I'm meant to do great things with my life. I'll always remember how ethereally magical the HUGO BOSS Fashion Show was and is each season. I can guarantee that their Fall 2013 collection will be just as phenomenal so be sure to tune in to see the live show on HUGOBOSS.com this Thursday at 8:30pm CET. 

To celebrate the upcoming HUGO BOSS Fall 2013 Fashion Show I wanted to share the most memorable pictures from my trip with HUGO BOSS two years ago. Enjoy!

I had the privilege of attending a private Holiday party by R. Couri Hay at the famous National Arts Club in New York. The soiree featured a special "Sounds of Color" exhibition by renowned artist Steven Colucci as well as a debut of his beautiful new scarf collection. In addition Andy Warhol drawings were on display to compliment the exhibition. Steven Colucci also used the evening as an opportunity to raise money and awareness for The American Cancer Society as well as the Quogue Wildlife Refuge. This was my last Holiday party of the season and perhaps one of the most extraordinary events that I've been to so far...
