Natori Fall 2012 RTW

Josie Natori showed her fall ready to wear line at the lovely Rubin museum on Valentine's day. The show was full of tailored, elegant pieces often Asian inspired and a mix of cozy and luxe. The black evening dress, seemingly so basic from the front, was a showstopper when we got a view of the lacy, open back. Way to make an exit.

I also loved many of the  sweater separates all done with a  luxurious but semi casual look not unlike her fabulous lingerie.

Ruffian Fall 2012 and New MAC Collab

 
Ruffian's fall show was one of my favorites. Glen plaids, bright plaids,  tailored coats, hats, hats  and suits in cobalt blue  were part of the looks that went down the runway.

Also MAC announced  not only the return of Ruffian Red, the very LE lipstick from several seasons back, but that they will be collaborating with Ruffian on an entire makeup collection come this June . Stay tuned.
