This was my New York Fashion Week outfit on day two of the spring/summer 2016 shows. Laura snapped these pictures for me outside the Art Beam before the Zimmermann show.

These Valentino shoes were perfect during New York Fashion Week. The low heel and ankle strap kept the shoes perfectly in place while I stood in line for shows, stood outside waiting for Uber’s, and did quite a bit of walking. Loved them!

My favorite part of this outfit is this Vince dress! The dress was incredibly comfortable and did not wrinkle during the day. My day started at 10am, and went until 11pm, so there was a lot of sitting at shows, and sitting at meals that day! Thankfully, the dress did not wrinkle at all. Love that!

This Vince dress was also perfect for the weather. The temperatures in New York hovered in the high 70’s, with low humidity. The dress was perfect for the early fall weather; which means it will be ideal at home in the San Francisco Bay Area during the entire fall season. I cannot wait to wear it this fall! As fall progresses, it will look amazing paired with black boots, and a black leather jacket.

Each New York Fashion Week outfit I plan has been chosen for a combination of comfort, style, and the ability to be restyled back home. This dress was great because it packed well, offered comfort, stayed wrinkle-free, and can be worn so many different ways throughout the fall season. This was the first dress I purchased from Vince, and since I love it so much, I will have to check out more dresses and clothing options from Vince! I’m hooked!

In addition to Zimmerman on day two of New York Fashion Week, I also attended Betsey Johnson, Pamella Roland, and Chromat. Stay tuned for my coverage of these fabulous shows!

Marissa Webb sent her spring/summer 2016 collection down the MADE Fashion Week runway during New York Fashion Week on Thursday September 10, 2015 in Milk Studios. The collection featured a mix of neutrals, military inspiration, and the most fabulous shoe collection imaginable. Oh yes, these are the shoes to watch for next spring!

Marissa Webb’s created a fabulous collection of high heel sandals and booties with playful fringe tassels flying in the wind as the models moved down the runway. The black sandals and beige booties must make their way into my closet for spring 2016!

The overall collection was playful, and offered texture, layers, and versatility between pieces. Many of the tops and bottoms on the Marissa Webb spring 2016 runway were interchangeable; making it a great collection for wardrobe building. Love that!

I am looking forward to getting my hands on her shoes, and several clothing pieces for spring 2016! To shop Marissa Webb’s current collection, please click here.

Pantone has released the top ten colors for the spring 2016 season from New York designers. They offer a mix of vivid hues, pastels, and one neutral tone.

In the color palette above, you can see a beautiful blush hue. This color has been around for a few seasons now, and is currently popular for the fall 2015 season. It is also extremely important for spring 2016. Many designers are favoring this blush hue for spring which is named “Rose Quartz.”

Designers are showing Rose Quartz with other top ten hues such as Peach Echo, Serenity, and Lilac Grey.

Serenity, which is a fabulous light periwinkle color, is being shown often with Peach Echo, Snorkel Blue, and Buttercup.

Snorkel Blue has been paired with Iced Coffee, Buttercup, and Peach Echo by many designers for the spring 2016 season.

Buttercup, which is a cheery yellow hue, is being shown with Snorkel Blue, Serenity, and Lilac Grey.

Limpet Shell is being shown with Peach Echo, Rose Quartz, and Iced Coffee.

Lilac Grey, which is my favorite color from the top ten for spring 2016, has been paired with Green Flash, Fiesta, and Iced Coffee by designers for the warm weather season.

Fiesta is being shown with Green Flash, Snorkel Blue, and Limpet Shell for a playful, vivid color story for spring.

Iced Coffee is lone neutral in Pantone’s spring 2016 top ten color chart. This soft, cool neutral is being paired Serenity, Rose Quartz, and Lilac Grey.

Green Flash, which was the beautiful, vivid green hue on Monique Lhuillier’s spring 2016 runway, is being paired with Snorkel Blue, Limpet Shell, and Serenity for the warm weather season.

Rose Quartz has been on many runways this week at New York Fashion Week for spring 2016. Lela Rose favors Rose Quartz with Iced Coffee for the spring season while Christian Sireno has paired Rose Quartz with Peach Echo. Rebecca Minkoff is pairing Rose Quartz with Lilac Grey and Peach Echo while Rachell Pally has opted for Rose Quartz to be paired with Lilac Grey and Serenity.
