Betsey Johnson was the spot for Fashion’s Night out as agreed by the Lavande Crew.
The store boasted pink bubbly drinks, hair, makeup and nail stations, a photo shoot, a dj spining classic Control era Janet Jackson and dancing gigglies in the window.

At Madison Avenue Park
Yes, Balmain for $45 not $5,000 and it goes to a good cause!
Yes, this past wednesday after a grueling morning, I headed down to Madison Square park where I waited 3 people deep for a Style.com 10th anniversary shirt at their pop-up. The shirts are $45 (don’t be fooled and pay an arm and a half on “evil-bay”) and the proceeds go to an organization that helps school get computers for kids.. if only the $5,000 Balmain shirt would go to such a worthy cause. The collaboration features the work of Alexander Wang, Balmain, Calvin Klein, Givenchy, Lanvin, Prada, Proenza Schouler, Rick Owens and Rodarte.
The “chuckle” moment of the day came from a digital ad sales mignon who chimed, ” Did anyone see the VMA’s.. Nicki Minaj has the biggest ass I’ve ever seen, its soooo gross”. Turned, twirled her hair and waited to pick up her shirt. My first thought was of the intro to ” Baby’s Got back” and after I LOL’s audibly my second thought was.. she’s going to research butt implants on her iphone in 5,4,3,2…

Glitter, Sparkle, Werk!-Santos Party House: Refinery 29 Party, Sept 17, 2009Of Montreal!Of Montreal!
Of Montreal!
Solange @ Refinery 29's Of Montreal Party
Wrapping up NYFW- Refinery 29, Gilt and Fuse threw a bash at Santos Party House with Of Montreal performing. While waiting for “Moonage Daydream” was a no-go as Solange Knowles took to the stage to perform “Heatwave”.
Prior to her set, she enjoyed getting down to OM like the best of us but I couldn’t help but admire her headpiece and her lipstick color. A stark violet/purple mass that was bold, beautiful and very wearable! Looks like MAC’s Night Niolet Mattene with a deeper shade mixed.
”Girl, you so Violet” was something I would have said if I could muster words at this point- I was too concerned with my own fun!

All wrapped in Wine lips to accompany tattooed arms, plaid and tie-dyed skirts and patchwork and intertwined leather. If I were Tavi- I would be peeing on myself!
This is what Fashion Week is about- go Avant Garde or go home..well, I am at home – le sigh

Bold statement lips for Jason Wu’s Spring 2010 show, yes, yes, YES!
If only the lipstick indicator actually worked, just by seeing this show- I would have never thought that we were in the doldrums of a recession.
Along with bold lips comes cocktail dresses in jewel tones accented in accessories that remind us of the fun “yester-year” that had us confident and ready to face the day.
After being formerly introduced into the spotlight earlier this year by Mrs. Michelle Obama- he’s been the “it” designer for the world to take notice.
Will Michelle Obama follow with the lip trend? That would be amazing- a world embraced in a powerful lip fitting to a powerful woman.
Thank you Jason for encouraging the Cherry spirit! Thank you for the first glimmer of hope!
