Phight Another Day
PhillyBurbs‘ tweets last night were pretty entertaining. Here’s a sample of some of what they had to say:
We like the one about A.J. Burnett having to pay his way back to the Bronx. Poor guy.
Here are some more Halloween recaps: the website focusing on the NYC social scene, Guest of a Guest listed some of their faves, as did tech blog Engadget. The blog as a post about two guys who dressed up like iPhones using massive LCD TV’s. The costumes are expensive and bulky but still pretty cool.
Philly.com’s Snapglow.tv points the way to coverage of a fashion show held at the Philadelphia Art Museum. The show was sponsored by Sak’s Fifth Avenue and featured designs honoring Tom Marotta, the late VP of Couture for the department store.
NBC10’s Lilliana Vazquez dishes out another serving of style recommendations, including over the knee boots. NBC also has pictures of stars who came out for Heidi Klum’s infamous costume party, as well as information on how sales of sheer pantyhose are down.
Test of Time
Coco Before Chanel
Amidst the insanity that is fashion week, there was one show that featured the designs of a certain reality TV star. It’s Whitney Port, who Glamour has labeled as a ‘trendoid’. Since we just watched a screening of Coco Before Chanel and are now obsessed with classic designs – we beg the question, will Whitney’s collection last? Or, will it end up in the clearance bin at Kohl’s like her buddy Lauren Conrad’s designs? Ouch.
Speaking of things that stand the test of time, there’s a cute company called Little Bird Style run by two visionary twenty somethings. Little Bird aims to style girls eighteen and under in the best way possible. Little Bird dresses girls well, but doesn’t veer off into grow up too fast territory. Before you dismiss it because of the target audience, take a look at the blog and sign up for the newsletter, set to be released next week.
Lastly, Frederic Fekkai is giving away shampoo! No, really. Head over to the closest Saks Fifth Avenue on Thursday with the shampoo you currently use in hand. It doesn’t matter if the bottle is empty or full, and they’ll give you a bottle of Fekkai shampoo. Information on the event was included in a Daily Candy e-mail blast, but it is also Facebook official. The closest store to Philly is in Bala Cynwyd, but knock yourself out with the store locator.
