rolando santana nyfw spring 2013

fashion week was 5 insane days for me...
it meant a lot of away time from my hubby!
so i was thrilled when i got to bring him as my plus one to the rolando santana spring/summer 2013 show! we had great seats right underneath the lights and so we could see all the details
on every piece perfectly. this was my husband's first show so he especially loved being up close to all the gorgeous models. it was fun being able to quickly chat about what we loved about each piece as it went by.

thank you so much for inviting us to your show...we seriously loved every minute of it!

i loved your muted palette mixed with pops of emerald, mint and that stunning orange.

life in the last two weeks

hey loves!
life has been extremely crazy the last two weeks...
so crazy that i currently have NO voice. i'm not even kidding.

1st - i quit my job, it was semi terrifying but i did it.
2nd - my husband and i took a last minute trip to the UAE to visit dubai and abu dhabi.
(post and video on that adventure to come soon!)
3rd - literally the moment i returned from my vacation it has been non stop all things
new york fashion week!

i have never been to nyfw in my two years of living in new york.
it has seriously always been a dream of mine to go. this experience has been such an incredible experience and it isn't over. i've been to at least 3 shows a day. not only have i been going to the shows, i have been backstage talking with the hair dressers, make up artists, models and the designers! i've even sat in on some of the rehearsals. i've been getting all the inside scoop on the direction for the shows and seeing all the fabulous clothes up close and personal!!! i have to pinch myself each show i go to.
