Watermelon

What's the best you can get for summer? Of course: the classics with a modern twist. This Mulberry Alexa is a good, or should I say very good, example. The water runs me in the mouth!

The growing demand from the Asian market seems a great inspiration to leading designers. We saw a set of colorful kimonos at Louis Vuitton and also at Miu Miu were the silk dresses overrepresented.

Ralph Lauren fall/winter 2011

Also Ralph Lauren looked on the Orient for inspiration and with a vast majority of Asian and Asian-like models, seems the Middle East settled in fashion world.

Girl Of The Week: Olivia Palermo (week 7, 2011)

Related to New York Fashion Week I make Olivia Palermo, who grew up in the Upper East Side, this week's Girl Of The Week. She's a socialite/actress/model and she has a great sence of style. I love that Olivia is not afraid to combine commercial brands like Zara with high fashion.

Power Women In Powder

Donna Karan understands the woman so well and knows exactly what she wants. Pencil skirts, ripped tights and the looseness caused a retro but nochalant feel. Also the colors were great: earth tones, natural, greys and powder pinks made it sterile.

Lace

Yesterday was the Jason Wu fashion show, completely dominated by the polished, ladylike look with a emphasis on tailoring. Coats were flung over the shoulders for a casual and powerful effect.

Some keyitems of the collection were: a printed blouse, cigarette trousers, a cropped blazer, a sweater, a leather skirt and of course a lace mask, seen on several models.

Today on the Fashion Week schedule are include ADAM, Charlotte Ronson and G-STAR RAW.

I'll keep you informed!
