Marlon Gobel F/W 2012

Sitting front row at Marlon Gobel, I was able to snap some great photos of his menswear collection! The main inspiration for this collection was the concept of a "heist", whether that be taking diamonds from a vault or in the sense of grabbing the attention of others.

Some of the pieces have been incorporated with Swarovski elements, giving men a chance for a little man-glamour on the NYFW runway.












You can see more images on my Facebook page! I also took a video of the finale walk, which you can see below.

A Take on Menswear - FTF Blog Event 8/17

This month's Full Time Fabulous blog event is about inspiration. With such a wide range, I admit I was stuck. I decided to look into my closet to see if I could find an idea. While I was at it, I started reorganizing my clothes when I found my old vest. I've only worn it a couple of times in high school & I've forget about it since.

Well, lately, I've been inspired by some menswear looks - especially now that it's getting closer to autumn, it seems like the perfect time to blend in some menswear pieces into my wardrobe. I'm loving the look of using menswear inspired pieces & mixing them with feminine touches. So I decided to roll with that idea for my outfit - though I dressed it down a bit since I was just going to the movies that night.
