Our Chictopia Editors meetup was a bit smaller than it was originally supposed to be. While there were 4 of us there, we were missing Amethyst, our Editor in Chief & Heather aka headbandit.


Samantha & Monique aka PetiteAvenue. They're both equally petite, if you ask me ;)


Samantha & Odelia aka Looney Lovegood


Sam & Syl, Monique & Odelia.
We went over to the Starbucks nearest the Lincoln Center to grab a couple of drinks & to get acquainted with each other. It was really interesting talking to these girls cause we were all in NYC for the same reasons-- we have the common ground of being fashion/style bloggers but we all come from different places in North America. We were all such chatterboxes too, so we hit it off great :)


we had a good laugh at this spelling, tbh.


petite princesses~


you're a doll monique! go check out her blog!


We were supposed to go see the NOMIA presentation at 6:30 (just before the Vivienne Tam show) but the presentation started late & we couldn't miss the next show, so we had to dash :(

Not to overshadow the brilliance of this dress but in the background of this picture are: Bebe Neuwirth, Russell Simmons and someone's pet pomeranian in front row! ahaha








A beautiful collection of understated Asian influences! Looking to Mongolia and Nepal for inspiration, the fall/winter layers and warm furs were nothing short of luxurious.

On the rainy Wednesday, on our last day of shows, we went to check out the Nanette Lepore Collection & then had a meetup with some of the other Editors from Chictopia!

[ NANETTE LEPORE, WEDNESDAY @ 11AM ]











Nanette walked down the runway for her bow with her daughter Violet!
The collection was beautiful & saturated with rich, sophisticated hues of purples and reds, contrasted with punches of chartreuse and fuchsias. With pretty bohemian patterns and girly cuts, this runway was full of playfulness that the audience loved.

Outside the Lincoln Center at night




[ REEM ACRA, MONDAY @ 3PM ]





met Coco! ahhhh, I was such a nerd when asking for this picture! Sam basically had to force me to approach her because I was too awkward and nervous.


& then we met Shenae Grimes (who is also an Ontarian) & she interviewed us about fashion and hair. ahahaha


& then had dinner at gaga's parent's new restaurant (amazing food!) and talked with Papa G about the Grammys, where he had just flown back from! [I blinked, fudgesicles.]
