NYFW - Alexander Wang F/W 2011

Alexander Wang's Fall 2011 ready-to-wear collection was fierce and striking as ever! This creative genius never fails to hit the mark and his edgy jackets with fur details and leather pants would make any downtown girl swoon!

We can already picture the coming months of street style girls wearing these combo ponchos in a sort of Clint Eastwood meets Carine Roitfeld chic. Black was at the forefront for color choices with occasional pale pinks and rich grays making guest appearances.

It was a collection of juxtapositions with rough nylons, tough leathers and smooth silks gracing the runway and flowing silhouettes mixed with stern and strructured lines, giving the collection an overall feel bi-polarity that we just can't get enough of!

Bag of the Week - Alexander Wang Darcy Slouchy Hobo

Often times, when we choose to splurge on a fabulous handbag, we go for the safest color. The most versatile, the one that allows you to say, 'I can wear with anything.' Usually, that means black. Black is beautiful, timeless and classic, but it's black and probably similar to so many of the other purses you already have in your repertoire. Why not step outside the box this season and get super spendy on something slightly more eye-catching?

The Alexander Wang Darcy Slouchy Hobo in Mustard is the perfect piece. In a creamy chartreuse, this pebbled leather beauty is still as versatile as it's basic black counter-part. It's sure to add a pop of color to all the dark hues you've filled your closet with. Big and roomy with an over-the-shoulder strap, the hobo bag is embellished with brass hardware and etched over-sized studs at the bottom. So go ahead and get a little color crazy! You'll find yourself using this more than you think!
