Fab Blab
During New York Fashion Week, a handful of attendees were asked a very important question: For whom do women dress? Here's what they had to say . .
Fab Times at New York Fashion Week
You heard about my fashion week fumbles, but that's just a result of the stars not aligning quite right this time around. Though it's a fast and furious week, it's a fabulous week. I wouldn't have it be any different, really.
The Bags to Have at Fashion Week
Who knew a fun way to kill time at Fashion Week was to snap pictures of fashionistas' handbags? I am more of a shoe girl, but fabulous bags were just dangling left and right and I had to give you a peek at the bags of New York Fashion Week. The most popular were Goyard, Marni, Mulberry, Prada, Chanel and, my personal favorite, Yves Saint Laurent.
New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: Livin' on the Edge
Some New York designers channeled their dark side for Fall. I wonder if this has anything to do with the dark get ups of fashion influencers Kate Moss and the Olsens. Perhaps.
New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: The Velveteen Fashionista
Velvet is back, in a major way. The rich, heavy, but super soft fabric that conjures up images of Medieval Times, holiday dresses when I was five and the early '90s, has taken a turn for the better.

A Few Fab Words With Victorya Hong of Project Runway

Just minutes before her label, Na-Be by Victorya Hong, made its runway debut, Bella (thanks doll!) caught up with Victorya for a few Fab words .
On Our Radar: Catherine Malandrino Creates Jewelry Line
New York Fashion Week marked the launch of Catherine Malandrino's first-ever jewelry collection. This is exciting news for the designer's followers because each piece was created to match her Fall '08 collection. Necklaces (as in left), rings, cuffs, and earrings in shades of green, cognac, charcoal, and black are composed of raw minerals and semiprecious stones like African jade, aventurine, tigereye, agate, and enamel.
Fab Faces of New York Fashion Week
I have always been drawn to exotic models (European mix white girl right here). However, my favorite model of all time is Canadian, with a bit of Italian, Linda Evangelista, but really, she's the best. With today's girls, not only is there not enough diversity but obscure looking blondes rule the runway.
