The blazing high temperature did little to stop the massive crowd from gathering at the opening day for the Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge (2010) at Blue Star Jets Field in Bridgehampton this Saturday.
Many of the attendees donned their best “Hampton-Chic” attire to enjoy the polo match and mingle among the VIP’s and socialites in attendance. We spotted the festive party-goers (check out our gallery) in a series of gorgeous summer apparel. Some women wore gorgeous hats and dresses while some men were spotted in a colorful array of linen pants.
In the midst of all the beautiful clothing and hot weather there was (of course) fun to be had and attendees danced to the sounds of DJ D-Nice, and sampled specialty cocktails (and beverage) from Patron and Smartwater, dinned on delicious bites of food and enjoyed fine shopping from the retailers on hand.
Kanye West Future Ex-Wife, though commonly known as “Amber Rose” was spotted in Miami over the weekend doing what she does best: dressing crazy. She needs to fire her stylist and I don’t care if she is her own stylist. You are fired!
Also, am I the only baffled by her friend with the same “hairstyle,” as Kanye West Future Ex-Wife? And, why is her friend trying to hide from the paps? Is that her jump-off? Now, I am not the one to gossip but………..
A bevy of A-lister sat front row to preview Christian Siriano’s latest collection the 2010 Ready-to-Wear Fall/Winter. Celebrity spotted waiting patiently – Kat Deluna, Veronica Webb, Mena Suvari, DJ Leigh Lezark and Amber Rose but faithful readers may her as Kanye West future ex-wife.
The collection which he described as “very dark, mysterious, and a bit of a ’60s vibe,” was indeed dark–with a strong range of black and grey pieces. For a moment it seemed as the bold & imaginative Christian had left the building and replaced with a tamed version of himself. And, for a moment I was saddened.
He began the collection with his most “ready-to-wear pieces.” Now, while the beginning pieces were pretty they weren’t all exactly thrilling; There was your beautifully draped dresses in wool, cashmere, and satin. You also saw many classic silhouettes and he managed to include some really great deconstructed pieces such as the Grey Chevron Wool Swing Coat. Additionally, he was spot on with some of the trends we are seeing the season, such as the high waisted pants and metallic pieces. His metallic silk chiffon raglan sleeve blouse is stunning. But just when you were ready to give up on seeing the bold Christian that some of become accustomed to, he shows up in the form of his bold fuchsia looks. The crowd and I, were noticeably pleased.
His fuchsia satin faced organza drapped cocktail dress with side loop, is a stunning example of what I love about him. That said like any good entertainer he saved his best for last when Sessilee Lopez walked the runway in his organza drapped bodice and scalloped tulle gown that seriously got a standing ovation from the packed house of fashionistas. And, with that the show ended and my faith in Christian Siriano was restored.
Oh, and the shoes were amazing also part of his payless collection.
Stay tuned for images but in the meantime take a lot at the finale.
Amber Rose (AKA Kanye West future ex-wife), Kanye West, Russell Simmons and others were on hand for Persona magazine official release party at Griffin. According to the press release Persona Magazine a new digital and print magazine that “will speak to and reflect the thoughts and emotions of critical and creative thinkers of the current mixed generation. With the blues of urban angst and the hues of high fashion, the abstract greens and browns of the underground and eclectic purple sound of electronica, PERSONA Magazine is the prism that enables this generation to view a full spectrum of expression, from the collective conscience to individual awakenings.” Uhm.. yeah another magazine.
The party which was held in the middle of fashion week was jammed packed with fashionable folks - no surprise there as the day before the event an email was sent which asked guests to dress fashionable. Yes, really! I guess the response was huge to attend the magazine launch party because we were also told to bring ID and business cards to prove our identity. So, I was very apprenhsive about attending the event as I was frankly scared by the requests. Fear aside and courage in hand I made my way to the party which was actually a lot of fun. I partied and dance the night away well until 10 when I was tired from fashion week and made my way home.
I did spy Kanye West pre-VMA freakout with cover girl who was wearing the skin tight body suits both of whom where there for like 15 minutes. I ask you where does she get them? Though, I must say that the next day I did see some body suits and I find myself thinking: Amber would like that. Like I even know her.
Anyways, also in attendance was Janice Dickson, Teyana Taylor and of course all the fabulous guests.
If you read my post yesterday and wondered why Kanye West Future Ex-Wife was at the Guest? store opening. I have an answer for you because I too was curious. In turns out Kanye West Future Ex-Wife was prometing the brand. As her entire outfit was all from the brand and she styled herself. Apparently, she doens’t have a stylist.
And, now you know some more images of her the above mentioned party and H&M.
Along with the invitations for the Spring/Summer 2011 fashion week, some designers are also releasing design inspirations images/sketches for their collection. The latest received – Tibi. There’s something about Tibi that makes my heart beat faster. Designer Amy Smilovic launched Tibi in 1997 and since then this “casual chic” brand has created timeless pieces that [...]

Remember when I told you to get your lawn chairs and beach blankets ready for the Target Spectacular – because the retailer promised a show unlike anything anyone has ever seen before.
