New York Fashion Week - Fall 2011

Fall 2011 collections of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week New York started February 10, 2011 and ended on February 17, 2011 with the L.A.M.B. show by musician and designer Gwen Stefani and Ivana Helsinki’s vision for the upcoming winter. This years shows at Lincoln Center saw over 85 onsite shows, with 16 new designers that showed for the first time, as well as 16 associate members presenting in other locations.

I know that NYFW ended last week and I’m a little late reviewing the fashion, but I still wanted post some of my favorites.  I’ve looked over a ton of pictures from some amazing desighers and I’m very excited for the Fall 2011.   I’ve never been a big fan of the spring and summer fashions.  I know that may sound weird considering I live in Florida right now.  However, I lived up north for the majority of my life, so I’ve always enjoyed cooler weather.  I also think that there are more options for the fall and winter fashions.  Well, without further ado, here are my picks of some cozy fall fashions from my favorite designers.  

Do you have your favorites from NYFW?  Let me know.

Trickle Down the Field

I’m so happy that this week is only a four day work week.  Is it bad that I’m already looking forward to the weekend?  Anyways, I wore this outfit yesterday, but I wasn’t really feeling it.  I think I could have styled it a little differently, but I'm not sure how I would have done it.  Would you have styled this differently? Let me know what you all think…I would love to get some feedback.

Sweater: Banana Republic Cardigan (pretty old)
Shirt: Anthropologie Trickle Down Top
Skirt: Anthropologie Field Skirt
Belt: Anthropologie Cylindrical Braid Belt
Necklace: Pearl Necklace (gifted by my BF)
Shoes: Gianni Bini High Road Heels

Knitting: A Purple Scarf

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I would post a few pictures of the scarf that I knitted for my sister.  I was a little slow with finishing it.  I’m very hopeful that she’ll be able to get a lot of use out of it next year.  Sorry sis that it took so long, but you’ll have something to look forward to next winter.   Yeah! Don't you just love the color?...the purple really pops.  If you want information about the type of yarn that I used or the pattern details, please comment below or send me an email at moodygirlinstyle@yahoo.com.



miscellany monday

happy monday everyone – i’ve added my random ramblings to carissa’s miscellany monday party!  check out carissa’s blog here and join in on the fun. 

{one} happy president’s day. i’m one of the lucky ones that didn’t have to work today.  i didn’t do much for the day.  i worked out and cleaned my apartment a little.  i don’t normally do anything patriotic on president’s day.  i don’t even know if there is anything specific to do on president’s day except going shopping.  i found an article off of the huffington post about 22 Ridiculous Things You Didn't Know About U.S. Presidents.  There are some interesting facts about our great leader…check it out if you get a chance.

{two} oscar buzz.  the oscars will be here in 6 days and i’m so excited.  i truly look forward to it every year.  the oscar ceremony will be televised live on abc from hollywood's kodak theatre on sunday, february 27, 2011 at 8:00pm.  the nominees for the best motion picture of the year are:

Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The Kids are All Right 
The King's Speech        
The Social Network
127 Hours
Toy Story 3
True Grit
Winter's Bone



i usually try to watch most of the movies that were nominated, but this year only watched two of them.  i watched black swan and the social network and i really enjoyed both of them.  Have you watched any of the nominated movies?  let me know which one you think is going to win. 

{three} running.  my running buddy and i went running early this morning.  i ran 6 miles and my body is extremely tired and sore.  I’m pretty sure that I will be ready for my race in 3 weeks.

{four} one of my best friends.  i’m super excited that one of my best friends from high school is coming down to florida for a weeklong visit with her family.  i haven’t seen her since last year.  right now i’m in the process of trying to get all of the girls from high school to meet up for a mini-reunion.  i can’t wait!
