The beginning of NYFW and this blog!

"I am much to lazy to run a blog." Go ahead, you can quote me on that one. But that has been my sentiment for years. I always felt my blog would be all to similar to someone elses or, I felt like what I had to say was not important enough to be heard.

The problem I've noticed is that Max and Lubov seem to entrance themselves with the idea of sameness.

For the past few seasons I feel like we have been seeing the same ideas repeat themselves. Belted, color blocked, tunics, sheer body suits, and neutral+bright colors. It was pretty boring to watch and indeed the brighter colors woke me up from my nodding session. I particularly had a problem with the belting though. certain outfits made the models look wider rather than define the waist and i still dont understand sheer material for fall(i never will). But, there was SOME good...
