Philadelphia Fashion Week Couture Show Street Style 9/4

Hello! Tonight, I had the pleasure of attending Philadelphia Fashion Week for the haute couture show; like last season, I was sent a press pass to cover the event. And I feel so lucky to have been in attendance at the show. The show was held at the Crane Art Center in Philadelphia. It was everything I could ever imagine or want and then some. But more about that in my next post; tonight, I want to share some of the street style from the show with you guys (before I pass out in bed, wow a fashion show can take a lot out of you!) 

The second that I walked into the building, I could sense the energy and excitement of the fashionistas in attendance. And everyone was dressed to the nines. Many show-goers donned classic all-black looks and accessorized with major statement necklaces. I snapped a few photos of my favorite looks from the show tonight here: 

Do any of you have a favorite street style look from the show?

Purple Haze

Hello! As you guys know, I typically stray towards dark and neutral colors when getting dressed. However, earlier this week I decided to take a color risk and paired a lilac dress with a vibrant pair of orange wedge sandals. And surprisingly, I loved it! The various shades of purple in the marble print dress provide an aesthetically pleasing contrast with the bright orange wedges that really makes the colors of both pieces pop; the clash of the two colors actually works in their favor. This is one color risk that I'm glad I tried out! 

Hmm, now what else will I pair with these wedges? Although these are brighter than most of (all of?) my shoes, I'm glad that I added them to my wardrobe this fall. I snatched them up at Charlotte Russe a couple weeks ago for the ultimate steal of only $5! Although the bright orange color may scream "summer", I think it'll be fun pairing them with my fall looks to add a pinch of color.
