Jenn: The Floral Farewell Fash-hole

Photography by Zofia Glenn

Today's post is rather special as this lovely lady just moved away from Philadelphia yesterday! Now, although she is leaving our glorious city, she is moving on to join her (uhh hmm, gorgeous) fiance as he begins his residency at University of Virginia. Not the worst reason to leave in my book! I think it is pretty obvious why I stopped her--Jenn is KILLING IT in that bustier and hot yellow floral skirt! Her and her fiance were on their way to Vetri for a one-last-night-out-in-the-best-city date and well, you can't do much better than Vetri for that! (For those of you not from Philly, Vetri is the best Italian restaurant in the United States-I didn't make that up, it's a fact. And there is like a 3 month waiting list -or more- to go there)

I loved talking to Jenn about her look. She was very excited to show me her exquisite bag--a vintage gem that she found a while back. It is to die for! She also said that although she is moving to Richmond, VA, she is still going to keep rocking her fierce Philadelphia street style. I say Werk.It.Girl. The very best part about stopping this beauty is that I couldn't shake the feeling that I knew her somehow. Five blocks later, I realized I had met her before at my friend Susannah's house! It was like the Fashion Gods had planned it.... ;)  Best to you Jenn on your latest life adventure! Learn more about Jenn and where to shop her amazing look here:

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!
