NYFW: Spring 2014 Runway Favorites

So I know this is super late but I'd thought I'd post up some of my favorites from last month's New York Fashion Week! NYFW is known worldwide for the meeting of some amazing designers displaying their lines for next year, and I found some amazing pieces by some amazing designers. I'll also be doing a follow up post to this with some other outfits by my favorite designers and lines to show you guys some of my taste! Hope you enjoy!

Spring is my all-time favorite for Fashion Week. Nothing too bulky and usually most designers really come through on this. For this year's NYFW I focused primarily on Tommy Hilfiger and Diesel Black Gold. Both are some of my favorite lines ever, and this is coming from a girl that hadn't even really cared much for fashion until about a year ago.

As you can see, TH really focused on some amazing pieces! I love how the runway was even set up: bring the beach to urban NYC? Genius. I love the way the shoes are the super-trendy wedge sneakers, the zipper and colors are just my thing. The mixing of a hawaiian print on a blouse with athletic jackets and cargo pants is not only cute but also really durable and awesome. The handbags are a bit small for my taste but I love the colors nonetheless. This line featured a lot of colorblocking (as is common for spring) and a definite west-coast vibe with the swimsuit-style of a lot of the pieces. Overall, spring for TH is very awesome indeed.

Diesel seriously outdid themselves with their ultra-sleek black and white minimalistic line for next year's spring. Kanye West was even a guest in attendance for this show! (Fun fact.) My favorite features here have to be the use of the boyfriend jeans, ankle boots, and adorned leather motorcycle jackets. Diesel BG made for a very chic spring!






So there it is! I liked a lot more lines from NYFW, including Rag & Bone and alice + olivia, but these outfits are my all-time favorites. My next style post is coming soon, and I'll start posting periodic updates about me designing my very own prom dress! Stay tuned and thanks for reading!
