Betseylicious!

One of the great things about living in New York City its that you get to see experience fashion everyday, on the streets, on the runways, on the fashion district and window shopping ... and if u get lucky you can even meet the faces behind that daily fashion ...
Today was one of those days, I got to meet the legendary Betsey Johnson at an event at Macy's, hosted by the lovely Micah Jesse.

Micah and me

It was the launch of the new summer collection which was colorful, vivid and girly, very Betsy. There was a lot of american flag themed items: tote bags, beach bags, wallets,etc. and a lot of red and blue lacey and puffy dresses as always.

Very patriotic model

I loved every item on it, specially the lace and pearls dress on this picture (which the girl right behind me won in the raffle!)

The event was very well performed and very well organized, you had to make a line and wait for your turn, once you got there they gave you a pink tote bag with the sparkly name of BJ on it and a compact mirror ...

Yes, the mirror says "You look too cute!"

Fooling around while waiting

Then, you got to this area , with balloons and a pink sofa where Betsy was, I got to speak with her and she was very cheerful, when I told her I was from Argentina she was surprised, and sent greetings to all her fans there, there was no cameras allowed at that point, but they took your picture with her and then they print it out for you as a souvenir in the blink of an eye!

Betsey and me :)

All in all, I had a great time, met great people and once again got carried away by the magic of NYC ...

Hope you enjoyed the post, Sorry I could give you guys anymore pics but they were pretty pushy in that matter ...

Do you own a BJ? Do you like the new collection?

Pamela Hat + Faux Fur Coat Combo

I know ... it's been a long time , Im SO sorry for leaving you guys like that! My life has quite changed this past year and half ... I moved to New York and as you could have imagined , as a fashionista, I totally fell in love with this city. During the winter, the past February  I got the chance to assist to the New York Mercedes Benz Fashion Week ... and it was one of the best experiences I ve had in my life, went to a few shows, got free beauty supplies and did a little celebrity sightseen (almost killed Jason Wu while walking towards the bathroom and tripped with him!) After that fantastic experience I went to Central Park with my beloved fashion photographer friend Gerry Hanan and took a few pics ... This are the results

Now Let me tell you a little bit about my outfit ... I have always wanted a Pamela hat, for years, but couldnt find any in Argentina. The first week I was in NYC I discovered the H&M on fifth avenue and 45nd, a few block away from Grand Central, and they were doing this huge sale and there it was ... $7 price tag ... love at first sight. I didnt even tried it! (Because I had this huge top knot on my head) and it happened to fit perfectly!

The coat its another story ... I have been obssesed with Faux fur leopard coats since I discovered Edie Sedgwick when I was 16 , and then I saw "Factory Girl" and I just knew I NEEDED one of those. Fnally a winter sale in Forever 21 brought this beauty to my closet for just $29.

Well ... Im sorry girls for this year and half gap ... the good news is my personality and dressing have evolved in space speeds lol , so you will definitly see me around here a lot ... Can't wait to hear from you!
