"On Wednesdays we wear pink!"
Happy Valentine's Day lovers! I hope everyone is extra festive today. I shot this Red Dress Boutique look this weekend in New York City. I was in between fashion shows at fashion week and wondering around Soho Manhatten when I stumbled along the cutest little cafe! Pietro Nolita is a tiny adorable eatery that specializes in healthy Italian cuisine. Upon entering this perfectly pink paradise everything is pink as far as the eye can see, and their motto is (and I quote) "Pink as Fuck"! I was in love! The food was great and their pink champagne cocktails were even better.
While I waited for my blogger friends the owner of the restaurant came over and introduced himself, as he does for all of his patrons. What a great business owner!
Outside of this little gem, there is a beautifully graffitied wall dedicated to breast cancer awareness. It's a free place to shoot but they ask that you make a donation in the name of cancer awareness. Such a cool idea! My mother-in-law is a breast cancer survivor so of course, we made a contribution!
This was such a fun look to shoot. I love a good comfy top and this "comfort calls" oversized top is the perfect mix of cute and casual. It also comes in a TON of colors. I paired this fuchsia look with a pair of white jeans with a frayed finish (there are only 2 pairs left). I threw on my favorite pair of hot pink earrings and strappy sandals that are also from Red Dress and I had the perfect V-day look, but let's be honest this outfit is cool for the summer too!
Of course, I was in New York to see as many fashion shows as possible for after a quick lunch and an expedited photoshoot, I was off again. One of my favorite designers of all time is Christian Siriano. You may know him from Project Runway, and his designs are show-stopping.
Christian is what I consider a celebrity designer and his shows are a celeb hotspot! Laverne Cox, Whoopi Goldberg, Meg Ryan and Cardi B were all in attendance. His fall line was gorgeous, as always, and carried a "Handmaids Tale" vibe. Here were some of my favorite looks from the show!
