While everyone else was dressed in laid back CA cool pieces, I was clearly gearing up for Halloween a little early… Having chose the line Kittin Hawk for the Fashion Groupie produced blogger shoot each of my three looks had a dark edge to them and I loved it!
I pulled two dresses and one cape-like top which I paired with a shiny gold H&M skirt. Both dresses didn’t exactly cover the ta-ta’s, so unless I wanted to flash the world, I had to organically incorporate some sleek coverage. I opted for a white bra to pair with the romantic sheer dress which was topped off with a feathered headpiece. For the more avant-garde look, the dress itself was a piece of art, therefore I opted for a simple black bandeau to do the trick. Kittin Hawk’s pieces are so unique…oh and all of the amazing accessories being worn are also from the label including the whimsical ivory headpiece.
Fore more on Kittin Hawk visit their tumblr…I’ll be bringing more looks from the other bloggers & the designers they worked with soon.
A huge thank you to the incredible team…

Because playing dress up is a fashion bloggers favorite past time, Fashion Groupie aka Karen was sweet enough to organize another day of photo shoot fun with Jake Narciso. Last time we styled ourselves according to themes, and this time each blogger was partnered with a local Los Angeles-based designer. I was paired up with Allysun of Kittinhawk, an edgy, rock ‘n roll line that has immaculate detailing and cool costume effects. Think sultry avant garde with a twist. I pulled three looks, which I’ll be sharing with you soon. In the interim, enjoy these pretty sweet behind-the-scenes pics.

Another big thank you to Karen for organizing the day and to Katie Hale for makeup and Aileen Nham for hair.

Okay, I so I realize NYFW has past, but I’ve been extra busy and am just now sharing my favorite shows with you. I’m sure you’ve been keeping up with my coverage over on the MyFDBlog, but let me narrow it down to my favorites.
Prabal Gurung
The words “designer crush” are a bit of an understatement. Prabal’s clothes evoke emotion and I covet/desire them all.

Calvin Klein
Structured simplicity. I feel like I can buy a staple piece from Calvin Klein and it will be just as relevant twenty years from now. Thank you designer Francisco Costa.
