CHEERY HANDBAGS WERE A POPULAR OUTFIT ADDITION ON DAY 5 OF NEW YORK FASHION WEEK

 The handbags that showed up on Thursday of New York Fashion Week were as dazzling as the pre-fall sun lighting up the city's streets. From pouches with fruit beads to small bags with printed handles on the top, exhibitors have sported playful bags that offer much-appreciated playfulness on the sidelines of shows. like Rodarte and Jonathan Simkhai. Amid the tropical decor of New York's Indochine restaurant, Anna Sui presents a Spring 2022 collection suitable for a very stylish stay at a beach resort. Something like the fictional White Lotus - the HBO show's theme song even plays throughout the show - but without the chaos and violence.

Aside from the fun see-through jackets, the street-style crowd added interest with vintage yellow sunglasses and neon sunglasses frames. There are people who wear eye-catching headscarves and cool bucket hats. On the fashion front, tailor-made knit dresses, rainbow maxi dresses and mini skirts are everywhere. "I dream of escaping to a little-known vacation spot where the weather is forever warm, the waves are calm, and everyone is always happy and cool," Sui wrote in her program notes. "In my personal Shangri-La, I wake up every day, whenever I want, to walk among the chirping birds, soaring palm trees and delicious tropical flowers, listening to music love and order drinks that come with colorful little umbrellas. The mood is always upbeat and whatever happens - it's Another Day in Heaven!"
