OLYMPIAN FASHION

I mean, really? That's the last thing we want to think about but it's true. The word school and work are slowly becoming a buzz around town. It's a been a busy past week as NYC Fashion Week gets closer and Andrea and I are only awed by resort collections, Fashion at the Olympics, local Miami events, and...well, some more fashion?


Jaw dropping? uhhhhh yes! Incase you missed the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, Britain's top models & fashion houses got their own spotlight too. Top British models: Lily Cole, Karen Elson, Stella Tennant, Kate Moss, Lily Donaldson, naomi Campbell, Jourdan Dunn, Georgia May Jagger, and David gandy strutted down the Olympic sized runway decked out in designs by Erdem, Burberry, Christopher Kane, Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood, Jonathan Saunders, Victoria Beckham, and Paul Smith. All of them sporting the color Gold, of course.


If that wasn't enough, let's rewind back a little bit to the designers that designed/created the Olympic uniforms for our athletes. Ralph Lauren designed for Team USA, Stella McCartney for Team Britain, Armani and Prada for Team Italy, and Bob Marley's daughter Cedella Marley designed for Team Jamaica. What do you think about that? Another perk to being a professional athlete.
