fashion first – contributor allie – top picks

RAGAMOFFYN’S

orangey-gold Prada silk shift dress and Loro Piana cashmere shawl- so pretty together!

SWAY & CAKE

the Luv Aj body harness was really unique.

I’m smitten with the color of these high-waisted trousers. So perfect for Fall.

CHEZ CHIC
a glittering copper sequined long sleeve mini = sexy, not skanky.

LA REE
one of the big trends this season is colorful pants. these red Rag & Bone skinny stretch cords are so perfect, especially paired with Joseph wedge booties, and an Alexander Wang sleeveless turtleneck.

MERCER
i love this no-nonense look… something you can throw on and run out the door on a crisp Autumn day (Vince hooded drape coat, Autumn cashmere wrap).

There was an excess of sparkles and skin at this year’s Fashion First runway show and auction. Freshly botoxed ladies huffed and puffed at the wait in the drink line; older men escorted much younger women to VIP seats; and one unfortunate gal took quite a spill, thanks to her five inch heels (and maybe the vodka-based cocktails being served). But brushing the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” scenes aside, it was wonderful seeing local independent retailers showcase their wares. Most of the looks got me excited for the autumn season ahead– I can’t wait to break out my plaid scarves, wool tights, and and comfy sweaters.
