 Meet Altaf Maaneshia, the first Pakistani designer based in New York City, to show at Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week.

"Inspired by Dolce Gabbana and the late Alexander McQueen, Maaneshia aims to merge high-end couture and contemporary fashion together in a fusion.  I his Fall/Winter collection, Maaneshia created neat and clean looks that are dual-functional for professional settings into nighttime.  The outfits are bold, using geometrical angles, and he's known to mix fabrics such as leather and wool, in addition to tweed, silk, taffeta and silver accessories."

Very excited to see his latest creations at Mercedes-Benz Fashion New York Fashion Week 2014 on Friday. If you are here for fashion week, this is not one to miss.

Lace, Floral Embroidery and a Sporty touch... Enough Said!

I'm dying! All of my favorite elements together in one collection! Rebecca Minkoff did it again with a fun and  flirty yet edgy ready-to-wear Spring 2014 collection.  The way she pairs those girly-romantic pieces with a sporty  mesh pullover says it all in this Mexican-themed inspired collection.  On a side note, can we please talk about those shoes?!
