musings and observations from the nycstylist team
NYFW Day 3 brought us bold looks featuring stripes. Designers showcased their patterns in different directions, colors and sizes. Whether the stripes are vertical, horizontal, asymmetrical, or every which way, they'll be a hit for Spring/Summer 2018.
The little black dress is a staple in every woman's closet. This classic piece has been interpreted many different ways over the years. On day 2 of NYFW, designers showed us their take on the LBD. All these looks sport a feminine silhouette, each with a different twist.
NYFW Spring/Summer 2018 kicked off with some shimmer and shine. While not all designers showcased metallics, this trend was quite the rage for some. Tom Ford, Greta Constantine, Pamella Roland and Rosetta Getty presented these eye catching looks from their ready-to-wear collections.
Don't put away all of your whites... These looks from NYFW Fall 2017 (available for purchase now) show us how we can incorporate white into our Fall/Winter wardrobe.
Stripes
Stripes were all over the runway yesterday, heading in every possible direction and across all styles imaginable. Fashion has an anything goes attitude and stripes are no exception.
Here are a variety of Day 6 runway favorites to incorporate stripes into your wardrobe. These looks are from Proenza Schouler, Oscar de la Renta, Rag and Bone and Lela Rose.
Style Tip: Break out of your striped sweater box and bring this bold pattern into your skirts, jackets, dresses and coats for the approaching layering season!

Good thing that you can never go wrong with black and white because this weekend's shows were all about the contrasting "colors". And since black and white never go out of style, finding a beautiful print and silhouette can really set your outfit apart. No matter where you are going, day or night, black and white looks have the ability to streamline your outfit more so than even the boldest of colors. Here are some of my favorites looks from over the weekend:
Top row, L-R: Banana Republic, Prabal Gurung, Altuzarra, Jenny Packham Bottom rom L-R: Beyond beautiful looks by Carmen Marc Valvo
Style Tip: On those days when you just don’t know what to wear, pairing black with white is an easy match.
MIDI'S
During day 2 of NYFW, printed midi's owned the runway. Midi’s are a great staple piece for any occasion, they are so effortless, yet have the ability to give off a clean polished look. I love these four midi's in particular, by Supima Design, Brock, Ulla Johnson and Marissa WebB -- the airy fabrics and soft prints evoke feelings of vintage femininity.
Style Tip: Take these midi's from day to night by layering on jewels that are as light in weight as they are in color so as to create a tone on tone shimmer.
