Fall is here, and with it brings the vibrant colors of changing leaves, muted hues of the mountain sides and one of my personal fall happenings…. New York Fashion Week. It’s that magical time of the year when the Designers and Fashionistas in the industry trot out their newest creations for us to LOVE, Like or Hate!
