Well, New York Fashion Week wrapped on Thursday and if you’ve been following it you probably noticed some major trends within the first few days (sheers, minimalism, (enough already, guys!) white-on-white). I was most excited by all of the red I saw particularly because it mostly came in that orangey-red I’ve been going on about lately. (Be sure to click these photos to enlarge) I’ll be interested to see if this affinity for red carries over in London, Milan, and Paris. Oh, and I did notice quite a bit of the red and tan combo popping up too

Ok, back to Fashion Week for a minute. I love the latest from A.F. Vandevorst with the monochromatic looks in tan and red. I’m slightly embarrassed to admit that I’ve always loved the colour red even with its somewhat garish associations and incarnations. The tomato red tone in this collection is perfection, and I’ve really been liking the head-to-toe monochromatic looks that have been appearing all over (particularly white looks with white tights) lately. So anyways, you all surely remember their F/W 09 collection with the horse hoof boots? Well, where that collection was the horse, this collection is the rider what with jodhpur pants, breeches, tall, over-the-knee articulated boots, and a dramatic riding cape. Really an ace collection!
