Glamour Magazine

I just met with Suze Yalof Schwartz at Glamour Magazine today
and she decided to put one of my necklaces
on their blog right underneath Subversive jewelry-good company!

The necklaces are $ 189 for both -(it's
a combination of 2).

Custo Barcelona-Fall 2008

The eclectic mix of patterns, brights, sequins and different time
periods was the epitome of a Custo show. Everything was there,
a white cowl neck fur sweater with bell sleeves, shiny metallic
dresses and the other fun element was that it was both men's
and women's clothes. Every color and every texture conceivable
was blended in for that very unique look.





The models all looked very glamorous with long flowing hair and
sunglasses; it was very jet set.

Thanks to Alejandra for helping me get in!

This show was packed and the guards outside were not so helpful
so it was great to get a backstage pass and walk through to the seats
that way. I hadn't been backstage for a long time and felt a bit like
a deer in headlights, not knowing which way was out.

Fashion week can be stressful, from the planning what to wear,
transportation, inclement weather,
right to when you sit and then have to wait.

After this show I felt relieved.

Then I saw Douglas with a great hat and took his picture.
I loved the whole outfit. Very sophisticated, glam, innovative
rock & roll!

Chris Han -Fall 2008

The Chris Han show was a mix of delicate sheers, rich sculptural furs
and draped and floral details. This collection looked very expensive
and had an "uptown" feel. The colors were muted moss green, beige,
midnight blue and marbled greys. The brighter colors mixed
with greys and browns included both burgundy and chartreuse.



The clothes work for every day wear-the silhouettes were
simple and the layering of vests was elegant although I'm not sure
I could keep those sleeves so perfectly rolled up.
