Welcome back to FASHION FOCUS!! After talking about those Trendy Trends” and the immeasurable Anna Piaggi, I’ve decided to revisit those talking windows that always catch my eye. However, I won’t focus on the name-dropping that is announcing each designer or store or label… I’d rather focus on the actual look rather than who made it. Some may cheer, and others may jeer. It doesn’t matter because in this 2 part series you will see many photos I shot of windows along 5th avenue (and more) and you’ll get wrapped up in the window stories and hopefully become inspired to add a few elements to your own wardrobe. For me, it’s never about the cost. In fact, some of my favorite fashion elements have been innexpensive and/or free. However, some of the designers/store names might sneak their way into the photos, but most names won’t be there. A lot of you will recognize the looks if you follow fashion and your feedback is very welcomed! Tell us which looks you love and which looks didn’t make the cut.

*Pardon the reflections in the windows, but hey, whatcha gonna do? The city is ALIVE!

casual stories, full of color. Very 90s, especially those floral prints (that skirt up there)

the Michael Kors moment…

I like how this display not only showcases the window, but leads you into the store as well… good way to show off the goods. The mannequin with the bags is fun for lots of bag girls out there. Quite the draw-in! The easy trench matched with a tshirt and leather pants looks fun and doable for lots of sizes and shapes.

the following few are subtly hinting… note the carefully placed keywords

kind of dark on the colors, but you can tell they’re pushing us into the Fall… very sleek looks, and I love those thin pleated dresses

Love the layered look of this garment

and of course these brighter moments are fun for fall!

Denim moments from Guess

these easy moments are for those that enjoy their casual in a casually cool fashion

I Love this multi-level display!!! So much to see…. so much to consider!

and then there’s Cole Haan…..


Some people just LOVE Cole Haan……..

deep reds…..

More to come in part 2, including more Menswear! Lots on display here and I share only to keep you aware of what 5th avenue is telling us. What did you think? I see full Fall preparation ahead. It will definitely be here before we all know it, and fashionable people like us have to be ready! Get your layers out as well as you outdoor AND indoor scarves! If your trench is ill-fitting, make sure it’s because YOU WANT IT THAT WAY. Wool capped hipsters, it’s almost time for people to stop giving you dirty looks because of your wool-cap-in-the-summer effect.

MOST IMPORTANTLY..

*Look How You Want To Feel*
