Catching Up with Diane von Furstenberg

Last night at the CFDAs I ran into Diane von Furstenberg. It was a dream come true to work with her on The City and it was sooo amazing to be a part of what DVF has devoted so much of her career to. She is such an empowering woman in every realm. Because of women like her, young designers like me are given a chance to express their individuality through the art of fashion. It was an honor to be able to chat with her for a second last night and I will always look up to her.

My Favorite ‘City’ Season 1 Moments!

Tonight Season 2 of The City premieres and I could not be more excited. This season captures a really significant turning point in my life, as I take a bold step forward as a designer and am faced with a lot of challenges along the way.
Thinking about what’s to come in this season only makes me reflect on all the craziness that went down last season. So if I’m going to reminisce, I thought it would be fun to drag all of you down memory lane with me. What better way to celebrate tonight’s premiere than by recapping my favorite moments from Season 1 of The City (in no particular order). Here goes.
1. My cake fight with Roxy during my Look Book shoot — That was such a tense day for me…I think a cake fight was just what I needed to calm my nerves haha. Click through the gallery to see the pics.
2. Working my first DVF fashion show — Just being backstage at such a huge event was such a rush for me!
3. Having a heart-to-heart with Diane Von Furstenberg — This was so surreal. I mean come on people, it’s Diane Von Furstenberg!!!! (more…)

14 Days of Fashion: Day 4

Hi guys,

I hope you all are enjoying my 14 Days of Fashion so far. For today I chose a really fun and funky DVF outfit. You may recognize it from a past episode of The City. I wore this when I worked the DVF Fashion Show. I know it is a little mismatch but I thought together it was really cute. Do you think it was too bold to mix the patterns?
