EDITOR'S NOTES: THE TOP 5 LOOKS AT PREEN SPRING 2012

It was even harder trying to choose 5 looks from the Preen Spring 2012 collection that at Chris Benz. I practically loved every single piece that walked the runway. Every piece. But as an editor, I need to narrow it down a bit. But trust me, I would have this entire collection in my wardrobe and wear it over and over and over again.

EDITOR'S NOTES: MBFW - TOP 5 LOOKS AT CHRIS BENZ

The mixing and matching of prints at Chris Benz were delightful. I love prints. So when I see looks that mix prints so effortlessly, I am always drawn in. It was very difficult to pick just 5 looks. I loved how it was playful and fresh and fun. A very lighthearted approach to Spring 2012 fashion.

EDITOR'S NOTES: MBFW - TOP 5 LOOKS AT EDUN

After having an amazing lunch with event planner extraordinaire Preston Bailey (his diet is primarily raw foods), I realized the importance of what we eat and how we treat the Earth. Sustainable clothing is just as important as sustainable food sourcing. It all ties together. That's one of the reasons why I really love Edun. The label was launched by Ali Hewson (wife of Bono) and Sharon Wauchob is the fashion designer at the helm. There are working with eight factories in Africa which is helping to grow the economy and raise awareness of the viability of African countries as clothing manufacturers.

EDITOR'S NOTES: MBFW - TOP 5 LOOKS AT @DVF

There are very few women in the world like Diane von Furstenberg. Very few. I adore this woman. She has been such an inspiration to me. I love how she is just who she is and never apologizes to anyone for staying true to herself. And when she is not true to herself (i.e., the Michelle Obama comment), she is woman enough to apologize.

EDITOR'S NOTES: MBFW - TOP 5 LOOKS AT ZAC POSEN

Ah, New York Fashion Week (or rather Mercedes Benz Fashion Week)... My favorite time of the year. There is always so much to see. I have so much respect for the effort that is put into pulling these shows together. Designers are literally sleep-deprived, hungry, and exhausted by the time the runway show begins. Love it.
