VMA Wrap Up & 100th Blog Post!!!

Adele rocked the vocals last night!!!

Presenter, Miley Cyrus.

The always chic, Zoe Saldana.

Newlywed, and presenter, Kim Kardashian.
Recipient of the Michael Vanguard award, Britney Spears.


Beautiful Beyonce, showing up her baby bump in orange Lanvin!

I have to say, having grown up watching the VMAs, last night didn't disappoint. Jam packed with tons of dynamic performances, tributes, and surprises, I thought that it was a really great show--where the pop divas (Britney, Beyonce-- baby bump!!, Gaga, Katie) reigned supreme. It was super entertaining to watch & not nearly as boring as some in the past. Leave it to Gaga to keep things interesting dressed as her male counterpart, Jo Calderone. So many people were confused by this but I suppose you have to be a little monster to truly understand ;) and that I certainly am!

Here are a few of the red carpet fashions seen last night!

Looks of the Week

Zoe Saldana looking so pretty in pink in this simple yet chic shift dress!
Clean, crisp, and white. I love how sophisticated Katie Holmes looks in this refined silhouette.

Rose Byrne is quickly becoming a fan favorite on the fashion radar. Her funky, out-of-the-box are definitely catching my attention!

Olivia Palermo, to me, can put together pretty much anything and look flawless. There aren't a lot of people that would be able to pull off this busy Tibi outfit! But she's workin' it!

Such a lady-like look. Anne Hathaway doesn't disappoint in this lace stunner & cognac heels!

Delicious Dinners, Fabulous Fashion

Midtown Restaurant Week kicks off this Saturday! Amazing restaurants at amazing deals! But this is a tricky time of year to get dressed...you want to turn heads when you walk into that restaurant with your man but its just too hot outside to wear your favorite new fall purchases!

Well have no fear! The ladies and gent of fab'rik have got you covered.

Grab sushi at RA in this maxi skirt; it's the perfect piece to transition into fall! The sleeveless top tucked in is so chic. All you have to do is throw on this burnt orange cardi when it gets chilly in the restaurant. Go ahead and eat as much as you want...the skirt has an elastic waistband!

Check out the $25 menu at Ecco in this sexy Savannah Rae dress! We love a sweet dress mixed with a tough leather jacket. And with this plunging neckline your date won't even notice when you clean your plate and order dessert!

This little pair of shorts are billowy and so casual. Perfect to sit out on the patio and enjoy some of the Knook's famous totchos! We love how this chunky necklace really pulls the whole outfit together. We hear the Knook has karaoke...Don't worry, you will look amazing, even when singing 'I got you Babe' by Cher.

We love this yellow sweater and the stripe shirt under it with distressed denim shorts. This is the perfect way to bring your summer essentials into fall!

We adore a black and white outfit! This one is so effortless. The bow and the pop of red lipstick brings the whole thing together. Gorgeous!

This sage button down is perfect for fall. We love it with this flirty skirt or with jeans! So boho chic.

Who doesn't love a little fringe?! We are obsessed with this outfit. It's the perfect mix of leather, chiffon and fringe! And the hat is just perfect. Love it!
