Glamazon Jessica Chats With Angela Simmons PLUS Get Her Rachel Roy Ponte Colorblock Dress

 

Glamazons, at New York Fashion Week, I LOVE seeing what some of my favorite celebs are wearing front row at shows almost as much as attending the shows themselves. Like us editors and bloggers, stahs save their most fabulous, stylish ensembles for #NYFW since it’s almost guaranteed that you’ll be snapped by the paparazzi or a street style photog’s camera…and well, fashion is in the air. (When else can you wear that crazy neon dress you fell in love with? Exactly…). That said, I was delighted to run into Angela Simmons at Rachel Roy‘s Fall 2012 show dressed to the nines.

Angela looked glamazing in Rachel Roy’s Ponte Color-Block Dress which boasts black and white colorblocking and leather trim. She paired it with a silver metallic envelope clutch with black lining, a sparkling cuff and gorgeous wavy hair. I mean, is she beautiful or what?!

She took a few minutes to chat with me about the collection saying she loves Rachel Roy’s pieces because “they’re super classy and chic and feminine. I feel very womanly in what I’m wearing right now and it just suits me.” Umm, agreed! Her fave piece from the collection? This chunky blue turtleneck that I have to say would inject so much color and energy into anyone’s winter wardrobe. A must-have!

Angela also said to look out for more work with PETA down the line (remember she did that amazing ad for them?) and to check out her website, AngelaandVanessa.com. Excited to see what she has in store!

For the show, I wore my favorite black ruffle minidress from Forever 21, knitted Hue tights, cobalt blue Aldo pumps and my beloved electric pink blazer from H&M. I threw on a STUNNING lia sophia gold necklace (more on that later) and topped it off with my Lanvin for H&M fur coat and a knitted beret hat I borrowed from my roommate, lol. Finally, I stored all my Fashion Week essentials (water, ipad, schedule, The Daily, etc.) in my favorite bag, a Marc by Marc Jacobs nylon tote that is my everything.

Fun times!

Kisses,

Glamazon Jessica
