It's taken weeks, but finally, here are the photos from NYFW.

I'm so sorry about the recent lack of posting! Even though I already know where I'm going to college next year, I've still been doing schoolwork like a crazy person. Now that it's the springtime, though, things will slow w a y d o w n, and I promise that I'll be better about keeping up from now on.

Our first show was Alexander Berardi.

Alex and I met last year, and have been friendly ever since. Not only is he one of the nicest, most generous and modest people I have ever met, he is an incredible young designer.

His collection for F/W 2010 was a gorgeous mix of tailored classics, with a Rockabilly edge (m

y favourite pieces from the collection were a pair of velvet drainpipes and an incredible red, floral dress.)

The next morning, we went to the Adam show in the tents.

Boots: Derek Lam. Jacket: Twenty8Twelve. Top: Kain. Necklaces: Vintage. Jeans: Tsubi. Bag: YSL (On bag: Foxtail from LF, Toys from Seoul and Tokyo)

... I loved the braids.

The knits (especially those scarves!) were my personal favourites.

The tents were packed... it made for great people watching.

One the way to the Chictopia event we first got epicly lost, then epically sidetracked, in NoHo, and never made it to the actual Summit.

Despite our earlier ADD, we did make it to the Chictopia party, later that night at the Tribeca Grand. There were a lot of familiar faces including Izzy from The Dandy Project, who, bizarrely enough, recently moved from Manila to my own little city of Boston.

Our last show was Herve on Sunday morning.

My lame photography really doesn't capture it, but the details (beading, weaving, studs) in this collection were incredible.

Photographer-insanity.

I really, really, really need to get my act together and post the photos/reports on NYFW -I've been home for a week! I promise, I'll get off my butt as soon as possible... It was such an amazing trip.

In the meantime, I thought I'd post these videos that have been popping up on a few music blogs.

Since Decemeber, the mysterious iamamiwhoami has released four, beautifully shot, apparently high-budget videos.

There has been endless debate about who is behind these pieces, and what exactly they are for. Personally, I think that either it's either the Knife or Lady Gaga, but my guess is as good as anyone's. You can watch the first clip below:

See the rest of the videos here.

P.S. The mud-covered... thing... in the videos - reminds you of the... thing... in the Savannah Wyatt video, right? Hmmm...
