Saks Fifth Avenue Takes On FNO

Last night, I stayed local and took in all that New Jersey has to offer for Fashion's Night Out. Saks Fifth Avenue at The Mall at Short Hills extended an invite to me to check out their FNO festivities, which included food, beauty and makeup, and live music! And since I'm a local Garden Stater, I figured, why not?!

In addition to all the Fashion's Night Out festivities, the store was celebrating the launch of the B Brian Atwood shoe line at the store! I've seen them online (and they're beauties), but seeing them in person was even sweeter! Besides, you can never have enough shoes....

Customers were invited to view the newly launched collection located in the department store's Salon Shoes department, and strike a pose in their favorite B Brian Atwood shoes. Among the leather and suede pumps and wedges, the Edeline caught my eye. The rich wine-colored suede is strikingly bold in person, and the metal feature on the heel just adds to the major factor of this bootie.

I noticed that the Liese (pictured below) was a definite favorite among the crowd of fashionable shoppers. Can't say I blame them either - the metallic lurex the shoe is made from gives off a silvery-gold sparkle, while the cut-out ankle is something especially unique.

What I love about his shoes are their versatility in terms of texture, prints and styles. Even the interior of each shoe looks chic. You're bound to find your own personal shoe style among the collection - mine is a simple black pump with a chunky wooden heel. 

Of course I had to take a picture in front of the step-and-repeat wall!

Holy Fashion Overload

It's finally Fashion Week in New York City! That means a couple of days hopping on the train into NYC for a few events.

I'm still finalizing outfits (except for my shoes), but I'm excited to get a dose of fashion week this year. While I won't be attending that many events, I'm thankful and appreciative for the ones I've been invited to. It's a very surreal moment for me when I think about where I was last year, trying to get my blog up and running.

My schedule looks a little like this:

September 7 - Lucky FABB: This will be my first year attending this conference. I was torn between IFB and Lucky FABB, but in the end, I figured I'd check this event out!

September 8 - Fashion's Night Out at Saks Fifth Avenue @ The Mall at Short Hills, NJ.  Take in the scenes at Saks from 6 p.m. - 9 p.m. Experience local tastings, view the latest trends, enjoy informal modeling consultations with the Saks Fifth Avenue beauty team, live music and much more. Stop by the shoe department, where I'll be, and check out the latest styles a la B Brian Atwood! More info here

September 9 - Blogger's Night Out. Looking forward to mingling with fellow fashion bloggers and seeing familiar faces!

If you see me at any of these events, please don't be shy! Say hello! 

Hope your NYFW experience is a great one! See you in the city!
