FashionIndie Straps on Its Glass Slippers to Go to the Ball

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

Last Friday, Nicole, Mac and Amanda helped me pick out a suitable black tie outfit to attend the New York Botanical Garden’s 12th Annual Winter Wonderland Ball. Considering the majority of my wardrobe consists of  harem pants and the occasional billowy blouse, my closet was ill-equipped to meet the challenge. Thus we made an Indie field trip over to our local H&M and in a matter of minutes we had whipped up a say-something formal look — all for under $200, thank you. I was glad we had made the detour as, upon walking in, I was immediately confronted by a room full of gorgeous gowns and immaculate tuxedos. The Bronx, even in the alleged claws of Jennifer Lopez,  had never seemed so glamorous. 

Manchester United Made Its Runway Debut With Hublot

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

As I exited a cab and crossed the street to enter Cipriani Wall Street last night, I was momentarily deterred by the Manchester United team bus parked out front. Be still my heart. For a futball fan like myself, seeing these talented athletes in person was absolutely incredible. Brought together by luxury timepiece brand Hublot, the Manchester United players strutted down the runway modeling watches from the 2011 collection for the ‘Art of Fusion’ fashion show.

Down the Rabbit Hole with Richie Rich

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

Villionaire, Richie Rich‘s Fall 2011 fashion extravaganza — for it was much more than a show — was  a wild romp through Wonderland with a pit stop over in the East Village. Tinsley Mortimer opened, JWOWW closed and somewhere along the way Johnny Weir skated out (figuratively) in what looked like a loincloth. But at the center of this three ring fashion circus were the clothes, a fun, wearable collection heavily inspired by the glamour of the 30s and 40s.

The AmFAR From Best Dressed List (NYC) partner

Edited by Abe Gurko, IMeanWhat.com

Just recently I did a think on the AmFAR From Best Dressed List at Cannes Film Festival. Well, far be it for New York City to be outdone, AmFAR held its Inspiration Gala last night a there were a few must-mention fashion moments that I wanted to share with you. Herewith, the AmFar From Best Dressed List continues.

This commitment must be exhausting. Thom Brown's New Look might look better with kitten heals, or pumps. (Click this image for more TB.)

I love me some Cyndi Lauper…fresh cheeks and all. The skirt needed to be one inch longer. Sex and the City is ovah.

Tinsley Mortimer was torn between two dresses…they both won. (Click this image for more TM.)

Look, up in the sky…it's a bird…it's a plane…it's…

It's…Bat Hag.

What on Earth is Amanda Setton wearing. After all that Gossip Girl and this was her take away?

Obsessed with Kylie (see today's Kernels below), but this dress it too Mariah for my liking.

There's a new Mizrahi in town…and the slippies show that he is more of a Manzie than a Mizrahi.

FASHION FACEOFF: Ginnifer Goodwin or Tinsley Mortimer in Dior

Edited by Missa Stumpf, TrendSpotter/ Designer

Ginnifer Goodwin first wore this floral Dior dress at an event in LA. Then last month, Tinsley Mortimer wore the same dress in NYC. Who do you think wore it best? I think Tinsley’s accessories are too neon for the dress. I think if she went for a different shade of pink, it would’ve looked much better. I love Ginnifer’s shoes with the dress and her look overall better.
