NYFW : BCBG Max Azria Spring 2015 Collection

September 4, 2014

You know when it’s really super hot and humid out, and you have to find something beautiful to wear outside? You curse you friends’ for foolishly deciding on an afternoon wedding in late-August while relentlessly flipping through your closet, with a seriously furrowed brow. Standing in your undies you skim right past anything heavy, that will cling to your body in any fashion. Dark or vibrant colors absorb heat you, and you REALLY don’t want to be a sweat patch by the end of the evening. What you’re looking for is something loose and flowing, that will allow your skin to breathe and not feel confined like a burning sausage. Something that even when you’re melting, will be comfortable and flattering…not to mention, flat out beautiful.

Essentially, BCBG Max Azria presents the ideal garments for extreme weather conditions in a beautiful and flowing Spring 2015 Collection. They’re the types of clothes you DREAM of wearing, while you sit kicking yourself for wearing a heavy black fabric under the scorching summer heat.

NYFW : Creatures of the Wind Spring 2015

September 4, 2014

As super excited as I am to have New York Fashion Week finally upon us once more, I’m even more super excited to bring to you guys the Creatures of the Wind Spring 2015 Collection first! Talk about kicking off Dream in Lace’s coverage with a bang!

Creatures of the Wind, in general, is always one of my top must-see shows at NYFW and for Spring 2015, I was happy to see their relaxed sense of glamour up-front and center! It’s a collection filled with breezy, wearable fashions that look like you’re stepping right out (or into) a beach vacation.

My August Beauty Favorites

September 1, 2014

Let’s skip the usual ohmygod – August went by so fast! – and get down to it: I frickin’ LOVE September! So bye August, bye bye!

Let’s move onto the dog days, my favorite days of summer. Pre-Fall has got to be my second favorite season, second of course to Fall itself. (And, yes – I do operate on the seasons of fashion, not the sun and the moon. It’s who I am, okay!) September itself is definitely my favorite month of the year because it’s filled with my favorite things: hot days and cool nights, sweaters with shorts, the return of football and of course…New York, London, Milan and Paris Fashion Week. (But we’ll get to that on Wednesday.)

Of course, while thrilled to see August go, I do need to take a moment and give snaps where credits do to the beauty tidbits that got me through the month. Which honestly, for me wasn’t that much of a great one. It weighed in at a solid ‘meh’.

But enough of the intro, let’s get down to it: My August Beauty Favorites!

Magdalena Koziej : The Missterious FW14 Collection

August 29, 2014

A while back I became apart of Wowcracy, which is an excellent way to discover up-and-coming designers and celebrate their work. With New York Fashion Week burning on the horizons, I got overly excited at the prospect of new collections and popped over to see some of the latest. Immediately I stumbled upon this brilliant collection from Magdalena Koziej entitled The Missterious Collection.

You’ve heard of her, right? No? Well, me either! But the preview photo seemed very Disney Maleficent-esque and so I got to click, click…clicking away and was left with an overall sense of joy. I mean, who doesn’t just love a bit of drama?

This designer is based in Poland and last January made her debut at Berlin Fashion Week, which I’m sorry I missed because I basically stalked BFW last January. And like the preview picture would suggest, the collection came packed with a sharp-edged punch…literally!

2014 Primetime Emmy Awards : Worst Dressed

August 26, 2014

Isn’t it sad when great clothes happen to AWESOME people? Particularly the comedians, who are just so good of making us laugh. At least there is relief in saying the Worst Dressed List of last night’s Primetime Emmy Awards is rather short.

It’s actually kind of boring that everyone has a stylist and at least looks decent at these things. But leave it to our fav gal-pals to be the real winners of the night by looking a bit out of whack. Here are my picks for 5 Worst Dressed of the Primetime Emmy Awards.

2014 Primetime Emmy Awards : Best Dressed

August 26, 2014

Let me start by saying, following up the MTV Video Music Awards with the Primetime Emmy Awards is exhausting when you’re a fashion blogger. But it’s the Emmy’s, and even on little sleep – I was still energized and excited to watch. Television has changed SO MUCH in the last five years, and to see it celebrated is honestly bigger and better than ever.

(It was also a sad, disappointing evening of bidding farewell to Breaking Bad for the last time.)
