The second day of New York Fashion Week was a busy one! I had back-to-back shows, and had to decline two invitations because they overlapped. I decided to attend Fashion Hong Kong, Nonie, and Chiara Boni. They were fabulous shows with chic ensembles. These three runway shows offered several elegant, all-black looks, mixed neutrals, and a touch of glamour. It was a good combination of shows for the day!

Without further ado, here is a recap of day two at New York Fashion Week!

Fashion Hong Kong fall 2019 New York Fashion Week

Fashion Hong Kong was a collective of three fabulous designers from Hong Kong. It’s always fun to see current fashions from other countries. Sometimes they are inspired by trends here in the US, while other times they can spark new trends for us here in the US. Everyone is constantly inspiring everyone. I loved the rich fabrications and artistic prints used by the Hong Kong designers, as well as all the purple. I am a huge fan of purple! I would also love one of those chic leather pieces to end up in my closet. These designers are fabulous. It would be amazing if they started to sell their collection here in the US!

You can see more collections online at Fashion Hong Kong’s website.

Nonie fall 2019 New York Fashion Week

Nonie was such a chic collection! I rushed to this show after Fashion Hong Kong, and I am so glad I arrived when everyone was still lining up. Nonie makes classic and chic designs; so chic they are worn by Duchess Meghan Markle herself. I loved the mix of neutrals with pops of red. Nonie also showed understated floral prints, and chic black ensembles. This is a classic collection we could all use as investment pieces in our closets. The coat featured in the first photo is on my fall wish list. Isn’t it fabulous?!

I wish more of my photos turned out, I am still learning to use my new camera, and I had issues adjusting the camera settings for the natural light in the background. The natural light did offer a beautiful setting for the runway show, I have to say. I loved seeing the city skyline as a backdrop to this chic collection. It really set a good vibe.

Chiara Boni La Petite Robe fall 2019 New York Fashion Week

Chiara Boni’s fall 2019 New York Fashion Week collection was so chic and fabulous! I loved the vintage inspired hats, and elegant details on every ensemble that went down the runway. Although I wasn’t able to capture very many photos, I think you can see the vintage vibe from the show-and the fabulous hats! The hats really stole the show. Everyone was loving them; and talking about how they needed one in their fall 2019 wardrobe!

All of the looks which went down the Chiara Boni La Petite Robe fall 2019 NYFW runway offered un-fussy details, glamour, elegance, and an unspoken chic. The crowd was ooohing-and-aaahhhhing over the beautiful designs she showed for fall. The photo below is of the final look to go down the runway; the crowd cheered as the model posed for the cameras at the end of the runway. This look was chic, sophisticated, and flattering. Which brings me to this point; all of Chira Boni’s clothing is made to flatter a woman’s natural curves. Her designs highlight the best part of a woman’s body; making her designs not only fashionable and elegant; but confidence builders. We all need a little Chiara in our closets.

You can see more of her collection online at ChiaraBoni.com.

Adding a touch of spring to a winter day at New York Fashion Week

Day two of New York Fashion Week was a ton of fun! The weather was warm; much warmer than I am used to it being at fashion week in February! Normally the temperatures are well below thirty, and there is always at least one day in single digits. This season, the temperatures were hovering in the fifties; much warmer than at home in the San Francisco Bay Area!

So, for day two of New York Fashion Week, I decided to wear a winter into spring look for a busy day of shows. In the morning, through to mid-day, this spring maxi dress from Chico’s was perfect for the weather. I didn’t need a coat! Was this the twilight zone?? Why wasn’t it freezing?? That morning and afternoon, I attended Fashion Hong Kong followed by Nonie, without a coat. This dress garnered several compliments from other show guests, and was the perfect weight for the the high fifties temperatures.

When evening was getting close, temperatures fell to the forties, so I threw on my 1970s style faux fur coat over my dress, and switched up my handbag to evoke a vintage vibe with my overall look. This was a fun way to make this spring maxi dress transition from winter into spring. It is so versatile! I attended Chiara Boni le petite robe that evening which was perfect for the outfit. She had a vintage vibe on her runway, so my vintage look worked quite well.

Since the day was busy, I never actually had a chance to sit down for a meal! After Chiara Boni, I wore my spring Chico’s maxi dress styled for winter out to dinner at Pepolino’s. It’s a fabulous Italian restaurant close to Spring Studios where the shows were held. Every season I enjoy their risotto and pasta. It is a must-try next time you visit New York!

My fabulous friend Dawn from Fashion Should be Fun took these photos with my new camera. They came out really good!

Day one New York Fashion Week fall 2019 recap

noon by noor new york fashion week fall 2019

Noon by Noor fall 2019 NYFW runway

The first day of New York Fashion Week, I attended three amazing shows. Noon by Noor was filled with the perfect items we all need in our closet this fall 2019 season. The color palette was neutral, and also reflected the current fall 2019 color trends. My next show on day one, was Laurence & Chico. They are a really fun designer brand filled with playful designs, and avant-garde fashion. They have the fun items we all need to add to our closets when we need to amp our personal style. I finished the day at Badgley Mischka, which was a beautiful collection of party and evening attire. The fall line will round out our fall event season wardrobe quite nicely.

Day one was really all we need to make our closets complete!

Without further ado, here are my favorite looks from each collection, why I loved them, and why they would compliment your style this fall.

Noon by Noor was one of my favorite shows this season. Everything on the runway would be perfect in my closet-and yours! These are a few examples of the fabulous choices for fall 2019 on the Noon by Noor runway. I loved the white dress which would make a fabulous swimsuit cover-up for a fall or winter getaway somewhere warm. There were several black go-to looks on the Noon by Noor fall 2019 runway. I loved the stripe pieces which added dimension to the all-black ensembles. This camel poncho is nothing short of fabulous. I love the black details, and the drape is luxurious, flattering, and downright chic. You can see more of the fall 2019 runway collection by Noon by Noor online at their website, NoonByNoor.com.

My apologies for the photos-I was using a new camera for the first time at fashion week and, well, I tried!

I did better with my new camera at this show! Can you spot Miss Jay sitting front row in the second photo? Love!

Laurence & Chico really put on a fabulous show for fall 2019 at New York Fashion Week. The music evoked a club vibe, and the models put on a theatrical show as they pranced down the runway. It was so much fun! I fell in love with many of the jackets and coats, as well as the vintage vibe. The runway show theme took us to “Thai Thai Land.” There was a vintage vibe, and although the collection was playful, it did offer many structured looks which can easily be brought from the runway to the street. I can see myself wearing that brown tweed set pictured above, as well as that fabulous blue and pearl white coat. Love!

Badgley Mischka fall 2019 New York Fashion Week

OK, my pictures did not come out very good. I did get one good photo of a model from the back. I loved the details on her gown, and how the dress offered a print on the bottom, with classic black on top. The final walk from Badgley Mischka’s fall 2019 New York Fashion Week runway show was full of red dresses. If you need a red dress this fall, Badgley Mischka is your go-to designer! There were so many fabulous red dresses! I wish my photos came out better!

I fell in love with all the sparkling fabrics on the runway, and the chic, classic lines of the collection. The dresses were timeless. Badgley Mischka really created a fall 2019 collection for New York Fashion Week which can withstand the test of time, and stay in a woman’s closet for many years to come. This is an investment collection. I fell in love!

You can view the entire collection online at BadgleyMischka.com.

What do you think of the new fall 2019 collection from New York Fashion Week so far? Are you as excited for fall as I am?!
