The Refined Woman

Refined at Fashion Week : Day IV

What Kat wore for the most epic day of our collective lives.

Blazer : Zara / Top : Madewell (similar) / Headband : Forever 21 / Skirt: Madewell / Shoes : JCrew

On to more from the Runway! I saw so many incredible gowns that I considered changing my profession to actress just so I could have an excuse to go to a movie premier or, you know, THE OSCARS, so I could wear something this fabulous.

My favorite gowns were Naeem Khan… it was a gorgeous 20s art deco affair. So Gatsby of him.

I die for this one.

Possibly my absolute favorite.

Naeeeeem! You rascal you.

Badgley Mischka also had some stunners that I would be remiss not to mention.

Some of them even us mere mortals could wear even if one was not invited to a red-carpet event.

My personal favorite : I don’t know if it’s one piece or two but I’ll take it either way.

I am dying over all the jewel tones, especially the emerald.

Wait you need to see that one again? I know. Here you go.

What do you think? We would love to hear from you, I’ll be posting all our runway pics on our facebook page and whether you love it, hate it, or predict you’ll see it on the red carpet we’d love to know.

Our last fashion week post is tomorrow, are you sick of it yet? No? Great.

xo,

OUTFIT: Blue Blazer + Baubles

I love this outfit because Kat actually photographed my last outfit in this number.

It’s the perfect mix of color + polish, two of the basic core beliefs here at The Refined Woman.

The touch of gold in her Bauble Bar necklace is repeated in her belt + her gold loafers. Truthfully, you can never have enough gold… don’t you think?

OUTFIT: Hunter Boots to the Rescue

This outfit was clutch for the last wedding I photographed in San Francisco with Emily Scott. Literally from the moment we drove up to the Bride’s house until we left the reception it was RAINING. Not misting but pretty much pouring buckets, and need I remind you that it is winter? My hunter boots were one of those purchases that I was not so sure about because of the price, but over and over again they have come through to shining victory for me!
