NY Fashion Week 2013: Jimmy Kimmel

back on september 12th, on the last day of NYFW my friend sent me this Jimmy Kimmel clip called "Lie Witness News - Fashion Week 2013". 

what a coincidence! I was actually there and noticed a film crew interviewing 

the posers standing outside Lincoln Center.

it was Sunday, say about 3pm and I stopped by to take a few picsof the 

nobodies that stop and want photog attention. but sometimes an actual celebrity will walk by.

it really is turning into a Circus of Fashion. now i don't mind actual editors, models,
and stylists dressing to impress but these other people,
not only are they dying to be "fashion famous" but have no clue of the industry itself.

smh. watch the video and you'll understand.

I first noticed the book clutch when Nicaragua designer, Estefania Lacayo for ESTEFAN showcased them at Nicaragua Diseña 2012 in October. The only books I have are fashion or public relations related - and this clutch would be a perfect addition to both my book and handbag collection. Quirky celebs like Michelle Williams and Natalie Portman have been carrying Olympia Le-Tan book clutches at red carpets but they are way out of my budget. Like seriously? 1,200 euros for an empty book which I can DIY? That's just cray. Therefore, I have found 4 different prices for you! ;) Happy Book Clutch Shopping!

Get the Book Clutch!

Super Splurge with Olympia Le Tan 1,200 euros

Splurge with Kate Spade $325

Steal with Estefan $60

On a Budget with Asos $43.85

Day 5 New York Mercedes Benz Fashion Week

Double Take: Street Style: NYFW Day 5

some ladies deserve to be photographed several times from different angles - or in my case, i HAD to move around fast because of the photogs blocking my view with their awesome fast cameras.

these are the last images of my day at Lincoln Center for Day 5 Fashion Week NY / Mercedes Benz 2013

** These are all my images, taken with my Iphone **

I've stated over and over - I am not a professional photographer, do not wish to be - this blog is simply my hobby.

The Scene: New York Fashion Week: Day 5

just in case you are missing the shows like me, well because we aren't exactly invited, you can watch them on TV outside at the main entrance or on Style.com

Fashion, Style, Street Style, Paparazzi PHOTOGS all over the place!

Nicky Hilton arriving to MBFW - NYFW Day 4; Honestly, she looked gorgeous! I wouldn't have been able to get a picture if someone had yelled "Nicky!" She kindly stopped and let everyone take her picture. As she was walking up to Lincoln Center, I spotted her and thought "I wonder if that is Nicky Hilton? She's all by herself, she didn't come in a cab and is just making her way through like a normal girl on a normal day." It was in fact, Nicky once that somebody called her name out.  

lots of photogs, bloggers, paparazzi, AND tourist sitting by the fountain and enjoying the view

lucky for them, PETA was not there. #FURtastic ladies from Spain

not one of my favorite looks

I couldn't believe it! BILL CUNNINGHAM! Some guy had the balls to call him and say hi. Did you not know when he's working - HE'S WORKING. "Do Not Disturb!" He doesn't like and doesn't like being thought of as a 'fashion blogger / street style celeb' or whatever label you have of him.
However,  I was in awe. Every time I walk around the city, I think " I wonder if I'll see him zoom by on his bike " - this time, I caught him running up and down Lincoln Center snappin' shots. Watch Bill's videos on The New York Times 

Everyone yelled "Susie! Susie!" but I guess she was running late to the next show - she didn't stop for anyone on the way in. Just in case you don't know who I am talking about, I'm talking about top UK / INTL fashion blogger, Susie Bubble - http://www.stylebubble.co.uk/
