NYFW: Rumi Neely, Fashion Toast

Rumi Neely
One of my favorite things about New York Fashion Week is the opportunity to photograph all my favorite bloggers. Rumi Neely of Fashion Toast is at that top of my list and has been for years. She was the first personal style blogger I started avidly reading. That was back in late 2008. Before Rumi, I really only cared about street style blogs. I guess Fashion Toast was my gateway drug.

Giovanna Battaglia’s Arm Party

Giovanna Battaglia
To me, Giovanna Battaglia represents the apex of Italian chicness. She has such grace and yet a fantastic sense of humor with fashion, which is the necessary yet often neglected linchpin behind a great outfit. Commenters, feel free to identify the bracelets Giovanna combined together to make such a delightful “arm party.”
