New York Fashion Week Spring 2008
Designer Spotlight: Tamara Pogosian
Armenian designer Tamara Pogosian may have started her fashion career in 2002 when she debuted her first collection, but her passion for clothes was seeded long before that. Born in Armenia, raised in Russia, Tamara experienced her love for fashion at the age of 12, when she would watch Fashion Television with host Jeanie Becker (me too!). She instantly knew she wanted to be in the industry in some capacity.
Simply Fab: Jockey "No Panty Line Promise" Tactel Modern Brief
Fashion week confessional: during my first days of fashion week in New York I had the worst wedgies. I don't know if it was the mad rushing, the humidity or my lame boy shorts — a combination of all three I'm sure. But, like a true fabionista, I kept on keepin' on.
New York Fashion Week Key Color: Orange
Orange people...are happy and spontaneous. They are friendly and open and have a wonderful ability to become awed with things. The orange person reminds us of the child in ourselves.New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: Jeweled Necks
If you were hypnotized by all the fabulous jewels at the Emmys, like me, prepare yourself for more sparkly delights. Spring's jeweled necks are functional fashion; it's jewelry built right in so you can rationalize a splurge. For those not built in, it's time to start looking for a statement necklace.
New York Fashion Week Key Color: Yellow
Positive Yellow Traits: Good sense of humor, Optimistic, Trusting, Thirsty for knowledge, Simple, Team player, Punctual, Not snobbish Negative Yellow Traits: Cowardly, Secretive, Greedy, Judgmental, Skeptical, Absent-minded, Exaggerates, Verbally abusive Fashion lesson learned: balance yellow out with black, white, khaki neutrals and cool grays!

True, the one-shoulder is not a new trend. But for some reason I was really digging it on the Spring runways. Maybe it just makes more sense to show a little asymmetrical skin when the sunshine is beaming down on your glistening skin.New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: Sportif
If these inspiring sportif looks don't convince you right now to get off your bum and get physical, maybe come Spring they will. Looks ready for the tennis court, a game of croquet or even just a dog walk around the neighborhood are considered high fashion, so put your most stylish sneaker forward and go sportif!

Nothing puts a smile on my face like polka dots. This happy motif is fun, feminine and whimsical. And really, quite classic.
New York Fashion Week Key Color: White
We just had a whitewash of a Summer, and there is no end in sight for the starkest color of all. White was once again omnipresent amidst a varicolored New York Spring, so officially blast those white-is-reserved-for-weddings-only thoughts. Blanco beauty even appeared officially deeming white is here to stay.New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: Sheer Bliss
Some designers showed sheer bliss on the New York catwalks. The unveiling of sheer materials and details on dresses and skirts is a definite sign that fashion is saying goodbye to dressing little girls and hello to dressing women. What I mean is, sheer can be both sweet and spicy.
