Fashion Week Approaches

As fashionfollowahs know, Fashion Week has moved to Lincoln Center this year and will be a brand new experience for all. Apparently Fern Mallis is no longer at the helm. It's someone who used to work for Vogue and was knighted by Anna W for the job. I'm sorry I won't be there but I will be reading everything about it. Last winter I wrote about black fashion bloggers for The Root so I will be checking all those blogs when the shows begin. Stay tuned for important updates.

Not much fashion being represented in DC other than over at the White House with the Black First Lady. Occasionally something or someone stands out here and its such a joy because of its rarity. Yesterday I met a woman who had placed beaded African bracelets (gift from her father) around the ankles of her thick high heels to stunning effect. Didn't have a camera so you'll just have to imagine.

Addicted to Project Runway and Rachel Zoe. Mad that I can't get Fashion TV in DC. Must I move to Maryland???
