Mansur Gavriel has introduced their fall 2016 collection and made it available immediately for pre-order online. There are several new colors for the fall 2016 season which include navy, pink, burgundy, bright blue, red, and more!

For fall 2016, Mansur Gavriel has introduced new fabrications. In addition to coated calf, Mansur Gavriel’s fall 2016 collection includes suede, canvas, and patent leather. There are also new shoe styles which include loafers, and pumps.

The new tote is my all-time favorite piece from the Mansur Gavriel fall 2016 collection. The tote comes in small, and large. The bow gives it a sweet look which will work well with New York’s late 1960s, and early 1970s influence for the fall 2016 season.

There is also a little mini moon clutch which is a great wardrobe staple. The frame bag offers a vintage vibe; and looks like something you might steal from your Grandmother’s closet. The collection has an overall feminine, sweet vibe which is sure to be hit! Mansur Gavriel can do no wrong.

It is always difficult to find Mansur Gavriel in stock. So now that Mansur Gavriel has released their fall 2016 collection early, and available for pre-order, this is the ideal time to snag the Mansur Gavriel fall 2016 bag of your dreams! I am eyeing the tote but cannot decide on color or size! We all need to act quick before they are gone. Not only will these bags sell out, they are only available for pre-order for two days. So either way, we all need to act fast!

You can find Mansur Gavriel fall 2016 handbags and shoes available for pre-order online now here. I clipped my favorite styles from the collection, and placed them into the scroll bar below. To view the entire collection available for pre-order, please click here.

I cannot wait to hear which bag and/or shoes you end up getting! Wish me luck decided which tote to pre-order!

“If you feel good, you get good. Call it sartorial Karma.” -Nicky Zimmermann

The Zimmermann fall 2016 collection show at New York Fashion Week was beyond fabulous. The collection entitled “Mirror Mirror,” explored the connection between how we dress, and how we feel. Loved it!

The entire collection was uplifting, optimistic, and inspiring. The mix of prints, mixed metal jewelry, and texture offered a feeling of relaxed opulence which would make anyone feel sophisticated, fashion-forward, fabulous, and ready to take on the world.

Inspiration in the collection came from rich colors, prints, and textures found in India’s culture, and their architecture. Nicky Zimmerman translated the traditional use of reflective surfaces, and its playful effect with light, into upbeat designs which brought these elements together into a wearable, fresh collection which was luxurious, extraordinary, and downright incredible!

I fell in love with the thick, chain-linked chokers, luxe loungewear, wide leg trousers, flowing jumpsuits, amazing trench coats, bracelets, playful clutches, and her signature, voluminous dresses. Did you see those booties, and patterned clutches?! A-MA-ZING!

Do you see the pale blue, voluminous blouse with mirror detail pictured above? It is number one on my wish list for fall 2016! Talk about fabulous! Which pieces are your favorite from the collection?

New York Fashion Week winter style

Day Two New York Fashion Week: Hat: Wildfox / Sunglasses: Chanel / Earrings: Kendra Scott / Lipstick: Chanel Mighty / Coat: TopShop (on major sale!) / Scarf: Banana Republic (old, similar here) / Leggings: Hue / Gloves: Brian Atwood for Target (old, also love these-they look so fun!) / Handbag: Givenchy / Shoes: Rag Bone (sold out, also love this pair)

It has been cold here in New York for fashion week! The lows have been single digits, and on Friday, the highs were in the 20’s. So to combat the cold, and display my winter style, I wore this cozy TopShop coat to stay warm. It worked like a charm!

This coat has been the perfect alternative to a basic black coat; I don’t event wear my black coat anymore! I love the faux fur detail, it really adds warmth, and texture to the coat. Can you believe this coat is under $200, and it is currently on major sale! I was so happy when I bought it on sale, it was like striking oil!

To give my winter style a pop of spring, I paired my coat with spring 2016 earrings, and my favorite cobalt scarf for a pop of bright, sunny weather color. I felt like it brought a little cheer to an otherwise cold, and dreary day!

Day two of New York Fashion Week was jam-packed with shows! My first show was Zimmermann at noon. It was so amazing! I loved all the details; stay tuned for my write-up on the show! After Zimmermann, Laura from Have Need Want and I hopped in an Uber and sped off to Issosy London, a children’s brand. Then we were off to meet L’Oreal backstage for the Pamella Roland show. The hairstyles were amazing! I can’t wait to show you how to get the runway look at home!

The day continued with O’2nd, Cromat, Nika Tang, Francesca Liberatore, and Demoo Parkchoonmoo. The shows were so amazing, stay tuned for my recaps on these shows!

Finally, at 945pm, after freezing in the cold all day, dealing with a dead iPhone battery, a dead iPhone backup battery, and no food, Laura and I found a fabulous restaurant named Westville. It had the most amazing farm to table menu with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options. It was the perfect dinner after a full day on our feet!

This version of my winter style proved to be comfortable, and warm, on a very cold, and busy day! If you are looking for a comfortable coat to wear now, and for next year, this is a great option! It is on sale, and in my opinion, it is really cute! You can find this cozy coat on sale here.

Stay tuned for more New York Fashion Week winter style, runway coverage, and behind the scenes posts!
