Spending the evening under the stars, while watching a Nordstrom runway show, isn't such a bad deal for a nights work. Last night (September 13th) I attended the final showing of a series of various fashion shows for StyleWeekOC at the Irvine Spectrum Shopping Center, In Orange Country, California. With the ferris wheel as the backdrop, models displayed a tantalized array of fashions for fall and for the transitional styles of the season. I spent the entire night drooling over which looks I wanted for myself. The fashions were generally for the young, but if you fall into the category of "Young at Heart," then you would have found the styles to be very appealing.
The first looks out were very reminiscent of the sexy-librarian. Give this young woman just the right look and she's all yours. Demure, but very alluring. The garments left much to the imagination...perhaps that is what is so sexy about them...It would lead one to have to search to find out what makes the lady tick. At first look, I had to second guess the high-heeled penny loafers and mary-janes worn with ankle socks. Only the daring, yet stylish would be able to pull this look off.
The Native-American trend with a dash of Boho Chic really caught my eye...I wanted it all!
The fringed boots were, as my sons say, "Sick!" I loved the maxi dresses. The color combinations in the garments were really pretty.
Ok, let me not forget to mention the SHOES! OMG!!! The shoes were amazing. Sky high stilettos, booties and the most interesting details that one could ever fathom. One model almost took a fall. The audience applauded her ability to stay on her feet in the 5 inch booties she sported.
A great deal of Justin Timberlake's brand, William Rast, was sported by the male models. The look was a bit rustic with a touch of hillbilly (I'm not being brash)...but hey, it worked! The good looking models could have worn their jammies and looked hot!
Take a look at the fashion photos that my photographer, Fred Harrison, snapped for me. Enjoy the show:
