SOCIAL SEASON

Summer in New York is officially over, and that means the fall season of concerts, fashion shows, art openings and other "back to the city" activities is in full swing. I am tremendously domestic, and my favorite activities usually consist of gardening alone, watching Mad Men over takeout or maybe entertaining a small group of friends at our apartment. For the month of September, however, I allow [force] myself to go out, do things, see people, and take full advantage of the energy that returns to the city this time of year.

One of the highlights of the last week included the revolutionary Vena Cava show and presentation at Milk Studios. I know little about fashion, but have seen the designs by these ladies evolve to a new level over the last few years. Read a more sophisticated analysis by professionals who know what they are talking about. All they need now is a men's line!

The line's old world carnival-like after party at Bird in Williamsburg was super fun as well. Bird is the first and only (soon to be) LEED certified retail store in New York.

Vena Cava also happens to have a fantastic blog that has been a great inspiration to me.
