| my TOPS | my highlights of Fashion’s Night Out
Waiting patiently in line at @DVF made Troy and I think about how we need to become real big deals in NY before next year.:) But despite that we had lots of fun visiting stores in the Meatpacking District and purchasing items from The Shops at Target and the great temporary stores that have been set up under The High Line next door to DVF. Definitely worth checking out if not only for the food. ( They will be there through October) AND I heard a rumor of AMAZING Thai inspired hot dogs from Asian Dog. ;)
| incidental INSPIRATION | Backstage Illustrations from Carolina Herrera
Looking through fashion week photos I came across these illustrations by Samantha Hahn that she completed today backstage at Carolina Herrera. While fashion illustrations have become trendy I still love them and have tremendous respect for someone who can put these together in an afternoon! BEAUTIFUL!

"For me, design is like choosing what I’m going to wear for the day - only much more complicated and not really the same at all."
Best of Pattern of S/S Fashion Week 2013
The surface pattern designer in me LOVES to see the next new thing in print! I always go to DVF first but to my suprise this season there was much less pattern than I expected. Bold colors used with dramatic cuts and detail were center stage in her show, but Fashion Week as a whole pulled through to provide enough for this post!:) Enjoy! ~amberlee
