new york fashion week: porter grey fall 2011

Porter Grey was at 9:30 a.m. this morning, and marked the true start of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week! Last season, I was kind of beside myself (and so nervous!) about going to the tents, but this time I feel like a total pro. There's something so spectacular about all of it -- the models, the clothes, the photographers, the energy -- and I feel so lucky to get to experience it all.

This collection was beautiful, and it's perfect for that September-October transition period when you want to wear fall clothes but the weather is still telling you to break out the sundresses. I liked the combination of fall colors and light fabrics in these dresses, and I loved the deep side-parts on the models' hair and the wedge booties with socks. Happy Fashion Week everyone!
