Where’s the colour New York continued…

Just spotted…yellow fashion victim at Niles, NY! Love it!. Before, I left New York I did begin to see signs of Spring, some fab worn in leather yellow boots, a few bright bangle bracelets…bring on the colour!

Where’s the colour New York?

Ok…I’m hear in NY and just loving it. The only thing is…I keep asking myself “Where’s the color?” This spring/summer is supposed to be rich with virbant bright yellows, peacock blues, reds, tangerines, greens. Don’t believe me – just look at this months Elle. Elle U.S.A magazine does a story called “Acid Trip” and displays fabulous looks that say “Colour has arrived!”. I can also attest to a certain large women’s fashion magazine asking some people I know to send them samples in tangerines, reds, oranges, and deep purples for a shoot to appear in June (not telling which actress will be in the shoot either). Yet, I look around NY and see the same old black, grays and browns. I know it’s only February…but we are days away from March, maybe I’ve set the bar to high, maybe New Yorkers would say they’re above the trends that hit their streets every season, maybe I’m a fashion victim…maybe I should be patient. What do you think?

Standing my ground on my embrace of color, I’m heading out to Thor Restaurant and Lounge wearing a short yellow jacket and silk dress with mode print over jeans. Ever played the color phone conversation:

Green, green,…

“Yellow?”…

black, black, black, black!…

pink.

Abigail Lorick

I just have to say, I’m pleased with how Abigail has mixed vintage style silhouettes with more contemporary pieces within her collection. The popularity of Gossip Girl has only helped to bring a more diverse range of possibilities to the masses. I’m in love with the dresses featured on Gossip Girl, known commonly as the dresses Blair and Cerena wore near the fountain in the park (deep cut back with small coloured tie). Love! Way to go Lorick!
