Proceeds From Christian Siriano & Erin Fetherston's Sample Sale Will Go To Sandy Relief

Excellent reason to go shopping: 10% of the proceeds of Christian Siriano and Erin Fetherston's sample sale will go to the T2T Stephen Siller Sandy Relief Fund. So good to see designers giving back, especially locally.

In case you're just catching up, here's the current state of Red Hook, Sheepshead Bay, Rockaway Beach, and other parts of Brooklyn and Staten Island destroyed by Sandy. Thousands of people are going on their TENTH night without heat, hot water or electricity.

Erin Fetherston's 2013 Resort Collection Is PERFORATED LEATHER PERFECTION

I didn't realize how badly I need perforated leather in my life until I previewed Erin Fetherston's 2013 Resort collection. 

 

Erin Fetherston Dream Dress + My Trip To Mark Ingram Bridal Atelier

Ok, sure, it's fucking see-through, but this Erin Fetherston Spring 2009 RTW dress is so floaty and ethereal that I can't help but fantasize about it as an amazing option for a non-traditional wedding dress, you know? Bonus: it looks like a wedding cake, AND it's the color of gay unicorns!

In other bridal news, after my Nicole Miller fail and my thanks-but-no-thanks trip to Kleinfeld, I MAY have found a wedding dress! It's, um, more costly than the Nicole Miller dress yet still "less" (and note: less is in quotes) than a lot of the wedding dresses I've seeing in bridal mags. It's at the Mark Ingram Bridal Atelier, where Kelsey, the manager, really really helped me out. It was just a MUCH more up-to-date experience than Kleinfeld. I didn't feel pressured, and the whole experience was a lot more inviting yet low-pressure at the same time. I don't know. If I'm gonna drop > 1 month's rent, I'd rather do it at Mark Ingram... We'll see!!
