Notes from NYC

Written by The Samantha Ogilvie Team

Sam filled us in on her favorite things after her recent trip to New York to view the Spring Summer 2012 Collections....

My top three designer picks....
1.  Theyskens Theory was beautiful. Stunning mix of metallics and tweed! Edgy downtown looks

.
2. Edun had gorgeous floral and african prints in very relaxed and easy to wear styles. I also love the that a percentage of profits going to villages in Africa where some of the garments are made.

 Guilt free shopping!
3. Elie Tahari was elegant and relaxed (as always). They had a divine colour palette of tangerines, gold, sand and seafoam blue favoring long silohuettes

Three runway trends I loved....
1. Metallics

2. Longer Lines

3. Strong colours are still in favour 

Top three NYC stopoffs...
1. Bergdorf Goodman. They have just expanded shoe department.... too many must haves to mention!
2. Ciprianni Downtown. An Oldie but a goodie. Full of supermodels and rockstars' kids!


3. Red Farm is a 2 week old modern Chinese restaurant that is home to the best dim sum chef in America. When Heston Blumenthal comes to town they cook together!
