Yesterday.







Outfit for my sister.  (I wore it yesterday)
Alexander McQueen leggings paired with an 80's top that my mom had. Oh and I wore my bootals again.






I'm going out to find a job now, wish me luck!

Shhh...

So due to a contract I signed, I can't talk about (Insert Name Here) anymore on my blog.  So I guess you'll just have to hear about my wardrobe some more and my interesting life.  I so need a job. I also need to explore this city.  I hate that I haven't had the time to.  There's so much I need to do here!!!

 But anyways I decided to pull out the skort today. Love it.


Paired it with my cut leggings I made, black flats and a deep v-neck from U.O.  
Not to mention my favorite (and only) cross necklace. I love that thing.

well off to bed.

Lazy day at Zac, but not really

These 12 hour days are going to kill me... I can already feel it. Thank god I'm doing pattern work and not the design because they stay around much later plus I don't know if I would enjoy running errands and doing sew tests.  Plus I just love doing math and starring at lines for hours on end, it really makes my eyes feel wonderful. :) But in all seriousness, I like it.

So I decided to dress more for comfort today and I enjoyed it. Still was a little fashionable with my U.O. top, homemade chain necklace, my favorite black skinny jeans, and another favorite item my Nine West snake skin flats. 

Like my Hello Kitty lunchbag? (its right on the tip of my bed)  Thanks Laura!



I talked to Lucinda about being part time today, and she wants me to wait until after the show on the 1st, which is fine by me but I still need to work weekends, that is only if U.O. hires me.  PLEASE.  I need money.  Speaking of money, Mr. Posen is having a sample sale tomorrow :D. If only I wasn't unemployed for so damn long... oh well.  
Post Later! xo <3

Day 1 of Mr. Posen

Today was super interesting. It started off really slow and then after our lunch break I did a lot of pattern work.  I also went on an errand with one of the designers Matthew to take Zac and his draped forms to a lady in the garment district.  Fun.  
I think I might have bonded with him because first it was small talk and then we started talking about SNL and Natalie Portman's rap and oh the "Dick in a Box" skit.

So here's what I decided to wear today, which turned out to be too dressy... but I enjoyed looking better than the other interns.

Oh and Zac LOVED my stockings.  :)

oh my boots!!!

Man do I suck at updating!!! I FORGOT TO POST MY NEW BOOTS I MADE!!! 
Here they are! (These pictures are from two weeks ago... oops.)





Roaming NYC's.... subway?

So Laura and I roamed around today, first to get jobs then to go to the Met... 
Well we did a lot of roaming, and let me tell you... all I needed was a big sign that said tourist on my face and I would be set.  For some unknown reason, my intuition/built in GPS was on the fritz and Laura and I were roaming around like lost puppies in the subway system... oh and also when we were trying to find the Met. BUT we fo
und it, eventually.  I wasn't able to take any pictures of the "Models as the Muse" so I took pictures in the other exhibits.










Laura got a new face.




















 I got some egyptian hair.












Trying to blend in...










...with the art work.





















Oh and here's some pictures of our new apartment in Carroll Gardens!
and by apartment I really mean us photoboothing in my room....
but heres our front door!!!!!!!




















p.s.  I start my internship at Zac tomorrow... I'm so nervoussssss.

Fashion Show


So, I got behind in my blogging, really behind.
Update on the fashion show:  went so smoothly, looked absolutely magnificent!  All the segments were on time, the Sen
iors looked great, and the models didn't even look like students.  The only thing that was relatively bad was the heat.  It was so hot... oh well!

here are some of my designs this year:


Ned Breznai in men's Casual.

Made everything minus shoes, sunglasses, and underwear haha.




















Katie Barons in a "One Piece of Attitude"
The coat is made out of an one-piece pattern
the leggings are my creation as well
























The next one is Angela Vernich wearing my wearable art. 
Its made out of tin foil, brown paper bags, yellow tissue paper and has a zip-lock closure.

















Paula Jacobson in a knit outfit.
Pink v-neck with lace bottom and a deep chocolate brown skirt.
Chain necklace made by me as well.
















 


Next two outfits are worn by the lovely Jessica Hurley, one of my favorite models we have.





First outfit is a grey dress made out of jersey knit, with a lace and lime green middle.  Her headpiece which you can't really see, is made out of feathers, netting and a peacock feather, but from the wing not from the tail.










The next is a burgandy knit dress that is hand sewn and completely drapped.  I actually made this dress to wear to my sister's graduation/engagement party.  I love it.

















The next three outfits are from my "Greed Line".  I can't remember their full names but the models are
Lilly, Shibon, and Elizabeth.  Sorry if I spelled it wrong!!!

The gold material is a silk dupioni, the black is a silk herringbone, the grey is a heavy jersey knit, and the lace top (hand sewn) is nylon... haha

Lilly is wearing on of my hats, red feathers, black and red tulle, and it has red beading on it as well as some black curled feathers.

so, this post took way too long... i'm going to blog later about NYC!!!
off to find a job and to go to the MET for the "Model as the Muse"!!!!
