PRE FALL OUTFITS I LIKE

Here's a collection of images from Designers Pre-Fall Collections that I think are strong, different, and represent the season and the time well. I have written blog post with an update on my life as well below the carousel - enjoy!

Scrolling thru show after show of Pre-Fall Collections on Style.com, I had high expectations. There wasn't one collection - aside from Chloe - that felt "new," wearable, and inspiring. Am I the only one?  Or, maybe, my expectations were too high. As they say expectations lead to pre-meditated resentments. So much easier preached than practiced, but, alas, I am stubborn as a mule in my fashion blogger efforts. 

Here's an assortment of outfits and looks that I was drawn too from a bunch of different designers collections [I could see a lot of these as Street Style looks, Wear to Work Looks, Pick a Season and a Reason and I will tell you what to wear!:  Adam Lippes, Burberry Prorsum, Cavalli, Just Cavalli, MSGM, Co, Cut25, Alexander Wang, Fendi, Christian Sirano.

{Update: I plan to add images of Ready To Wear designer looks that span different years (2015,2016,2017) to this Pre-Fall Collection post. The reason being I like to see which designers and trends have staying power and then I will write more in this blog post about that.]

[Update 2: I have moved from NYC to DC and started Liz Ash LLC - a branding, marketing, and press relations firm that specializes in start-ups and re-brands!! So exciting and I finished my first project officially in July which was to re-brand DC Swim Week. As Executive Creative Director I audited the current brand, decided that it needed a re-brand on all customer touch points, and went ahead and did it!  From website re-design, social media and marketing strategy, designer curation, interior styling of the actual French Embassy so photographers could get good images, securing sponsors and designers via a beautifully designed presentation for each, and coming up with the Luxury Bazaar theme where guests would enter an all white embassy with every sense touched and where different local designers and vendors could display and sell their product. It was called "the best DC Swim Week EVER," by Washington Life Magazine, "It was evident that there has been a clear and successful re-branding of DC Swim Week as I entered the French Embassy it seemed like an entirely different show made by an entirely different group of people compared to last year," wrote Average Socialite editor. So happy!"
