We’ve had our rounds of snowfall this New York Fashion Week. Flurries have caught us on our guard on and off the runway. Our screens got fuzzy as we watched busy black and white patterns flurry past. Designers like Alexander Wang, Christian Siriano, Catherine Malandrino and others have already got the buzz, more are likely to follow suit.

The workhorse behind the CFDA, C.E.O. Steven Kolb, lingers momentarily on Diane Von Furstenberg‘s runway post-show, making his way from backstage to the front of house. I overheard him tell another journalist, “I do all the work, Diane takes all the credit. It’s established and out in the open.” It’s quite alright with all parties involved; if he didn’t do the lion’s share of the CFDA workload, when would DVF possibly have time to create a collection and run her powerhouse? That said, on the 50th anniversary of the CFDA, there is much excitement abounds with the relocation of CFDA headquarters, so we got a little nosy.

If you’re not at Lincoln Center this fine Sunday morning-after, you’re likely in your PJs, nursin’ a hangover. If you’re even luckier, you’re still in bed with your scorching hot lover, about to get up and slip into something silkier. Especially with Valentine’s Day creeping up on us, we realize the want and need to look sexy at home. Being at home with your man is the worst excuse to look schleppy – just after the excuse that you’re by yourself. Who are you dressing for? No matter who’s touching you, you deserve to feel silky smooth.
Which is why we want you to win this $500 bathrobe FREE!

On the second floor of MILK Studios (the oft preferred alternative to Lincoln Center), newlyweds Jeffrey Costello and Robert Tagliapetra showed their Fall 2012 collection in a rush of coral reef-like prints and soothing colored draping. Having been together 17 years, their marriage didn’t change anything too drastically. In fact, the were in love before they went into business. In such happiness, they also give back to Mama Earth by using AirDye to color their fabrics; they don’t use water, which typically harbors toxins and releases them into water sources. Wich such positivity in their world, Jeffery’s watercolor paintings of chrysanthemums blossomed into a Costello Tagliapietra collection that delights.

Fashion Week is here in all its sequined glory, and we’re carefully but surely finalizing our wardrobe for the week. If you’re still searching for that special pair of statement shoes for the occasion, look no further than Miss Bernadette 2 from Opening Ceremony. Standing on a 140 mm velvet platform heel, this leather retro t-strap pump has a double buckle ankle strap for extra support when trudging through the tents. Get them now before those other bitches do.
