Meghan: The Coco Rocha Fash-hole


Photography by Zofia Glenn
  
The end of Wharton Week is here with Day 7 today! (see Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4, Day 5 and Day 6 coverage of the Wharton Charity Fashion Show) The last look I am featuring is from Meghan, who I initially noticed because she looks like Coco Rocha (and I am kicking myself for not taking a close up shot!) one of the most buzzed about models and one of my all time faves. I also loved the simplicity of her outfit. She looked very fresh and young with her white top, black bottoms and structured crossbody bag. In order to make this look standout and not in the "excuse me, waiter" way, make sure there are fun details in your simple pieces, whether that be zipper details on the pants or a cool gold heel on a black boot.

Ege & Alexander: The Designer Fash-holes






Photography by Zofia Glenn

Day 6 of Wharton Week is here (and only a day behind-sorry!) This is the next to last post celebrating the Wharton Charity Fashion Show and one that I have been excited to share with you guys (see Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4 and Day 5)! I immediately stopped the lovely Ege the moment I saw her bright orange head scarf and flowing printed dress. I love easy, boho inspired fashion and so it was a no brainer to grab this girl for the blog. As luck would have it, the adorable guy she was with was actually the designer of her effortlessly cool outfit. So I grabbed him for a few pics and interviewed both of them. Learn more about Ege and Alexander and what she is wearing here:

Name: Ege Ozyegin
Age: 20
Occupation: Student at University of Pennsylvania

Age: 28

Sonia: The Floral Fash-hole


Photography by Zofia Glenn

Happy hump day Fash-holes! With today being Day 4, we are well on our way through Wharton Week, celebrating the Wharton Charity Fashion Show (see Day 1, Day 2 and Day 3). Today, I am featuring the gorgeous and bright Sonia. She immediately grabbed my attention with her wild, floral head-to-toe look. What I love most about this look is that she made it look effortless and easy to pull off, which it is not. She achieved this by keeping her accessories simple and letting her outfit speak for itself. I also thought her hair was a fabulous topping to this crazy cool ensemble. Learn more about Sonia and how to get her look here:

Name: Sonia
Age: 25
Occupation: Student at Wharton Business School

Welcome to Day 3 of Wharton Week, featuring looks both on and off the runway from the Wharton Charity Fashion Show. The past two days have been filled with runway shots of designers such as Michael Kors, Kal Rieman, Zinkē, Lilly Pulitzer and BHLDN (see Day 1 and Day 2). Now we move back to the regular format of this blog, with interviews and pictures of ladies with impecible taste. Today's fash-hole was the first to catch my eye at the event, confidently sporting this edgy, yet chic outfit. Melissa was a model in the show that night, but by day is a student at Wharton.

Wharton Week: Day 2


Welcome back Fash-holes to Wharton Week: Day 2! I hope you enjoyed the amazing fashions that were posted yesterday. Today's post will conclude the runway show, featuring another handful of talented designers. Then, in the following days, I will be featuring individuals whose stand-out style caught by eye on the night of the event. Let the show begin!

I was lucky to actually meet one of the designers of the lux Italian, family owned brand Mason's before the show (see exclusive interview later in the week). He explained that he designed comfortable, cool clothes that he would want to see a woman wear. As the looks came down the runway, I could immediately see his vision come to life.










The designer, Alexander Zorub, with model/muse Ege Ozyegin. Come back for an exclusive with these two later this week!


The next designer to walk the runway was bathing suit and lingerie powerhouse Zinkē. Known for their flirty and fun designs, the looks did not disappoint!









Next came luxury department store, Bloomingdale's. Known for carrying the best designers, their selection of sexy dresses, funky downtown looks and bold accessories were a highlight of the show.










Inspired by the vibrant atmosphere of Palm Beach, Lilly Pulitzer always delivers bold prints in the brightest hues that will transport you directly to the beach. With spring around the corner, these looks were a breath of fresh air. Sadly, this fashion powerhouse passed away only yesterday at the age of 81. Visit Lilly Pulitzer online to learn more about this incredible woman.










I was so excited to see the BHLDN show because I am obsessed with this brand! It is where I am looking for my wedding dress and I love their stuff...all of it. The show, while not focused on wedding dresses, lived up to my expectations. These fun, flirty dresses walked the runway with sharply dressed men, thanks to Suitsupply. Ranked #1 suit by The Wall Street Journal, Suitsupply personifies pure luxury for men with crisp, perfectly tailored suits. I'll be the first to admit, these guys and gals looked good coming down the runway!














Until Next Time...

This last shot was my direct view for the finale (lucky me!), a loud, crowd-pleasing, fist pumping end to an overall incrediblely curated and well presented show.

Stay tuned this week as I go back to my original format and interview guests, including models and designers, from the show!
