Celebrity Encounters During F/W12 Fashion Week

Part of the excitement of attending Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is running into your favorite celebrities. Every season I'm lucky to have a chance to meet some of my favorite stars. This time I had a chance to meet Brad Goreski, Miss J, Gretchen Rossi, Coco Rocha and of course the amazing Joe Zee, who I had a chance to see for a second time since filming All on The Line with him last year. 

Gretchen and I even wore similar outfits! How funny it was to meet her as the first thing we said to each other was "you look great, love your outfit!"

I met Miss J at the GLSEN lounge hosted by Elle magazine. I've always seen her in the tents but never really had a chance to meet until now. She was quite fabulous in person!

Meeting Coco Rocha was very coincidentally as she just happened to be standing right behind me while we were both waiting to see a presentation. Click here for the full recap.

Seeing Joe Zee was probably one of the best moments for me during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week as it brought back so many great memories of having a chance to guest star on his show All on the Line last year.

Celebrity Encounters at SS12 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week

I was so excited to meet so many of my favorite celebs during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. This season I had the pleasure of meeting Annalynne McCord (90210), Kelly Rutherford and Matthew Settle (Gossip Girl), Rachel Zoe (Fashion Stylist), Tinsley Mortimer (Socialite) and Bobbie Thomas (Fashion Editor of NBC's TODAY show).

I met Annalynne right after seeing the Eva Minge fashion show at the Hudson Hotel. Ironically she was walking right in front of me as we were exiting the show. She was so sweet to talk to and seemed very down to earth. Although I really wish I didn't end up taking my heels off. I look majorly short compared to her!
I met Kelly Rutherford and Matthew Settle after the Son Jung Wan fashion show. I'm a huge fan of Gossip Girl so it was really fun to meet them in person!
I was seated right across from Rachel Zoe in the front row during the Supima fashion show this season. Rachel has been my fashion inspiration and icon ever since I started my career in fashion. I'm in love with her show The Rachel Zoe Project and never thought I would get the opportunity to meet her in person. After the show was over I knew that she would be extremely busy with press interviews backstage so I made a point to literally dash over for the opportunity to meet her. She was extremely nice and we ended up taking a picture together. That day was truly one of the best days of my life aside from being seated in the front row right across from Rachel I also had the privilege of meeting her. I'm one lucky girl!
After leaving one of the lounges at the Empire Hotel I ran into NYC socialite Tinsley Mortimer.
I met Bobbie Thomas during the Fiber One Cocktail Party that she was hosting. We ended up chatting for a good 30 minutes about fashion and the shows we were attending. Bobbie is such an inspiration to me when it comes to making it in fashion.
