NYC Fashion Week/Spring 2013 Street Style post #3

As any fashion lover February and September are my favorite months of the year, and the reason why is very simple, two words: FASHION WEEK! .... Every single time Fashion Week offers something completely different and the excitement of not knowing what to expect is just amazing. During this past NYFW 2013 designers presented their Prêt-à-Porter (ready-to-wear) Fall 2013 collections. From Marc Jacobs to Diane Von Furstenberg,  from Victoria Beckham to Ralph Lauren, every designer presented something unique and different in the runway. Black and white was definitely the trend that that ruled the runway as well as unique patterns and but cut-outs.
 This year's Mercedes-Benz's Fashion Week was a little chaotic because of the snowstorm that hit the city but luckily the blizzard did not stop editors, fashionistas, celebrities, and bloggers of attending the shows. MBFW organizers and designers pulled through and offered a great Fashion Week. Marc Jacobs's Monday show was postponed to Thursday because of delayed shipments, but thank God for that because his show was my favorite one!!! Glittering mesh dresses, embellishment on retro-inspired swing coats, retro collar blouses, high-waist shorts, pajama-inspired looks, every single look was so polished and beautiful that I wanted to get them all! 

Not only designers shows us the up coming trends in their fashion shows, today I believe that true fashion creativity comes from the streets. In my opinion the Street Style looks are always the best ones!!! So of course this year I was more than ready to get to the streets and start taking pictures. Here are some of my favorite ones! ENJOY!


TREND: MIX AND MATCH, Statement accessories, big and bold necklaces, colorful purses, big cat eye sunglasses, and lots and lots of fur are still the  the must haves/ key items for this season!!
