Myfirst show at the Mercedes Benz Fashion week at Lincoln Centerwas Badgley Mischka. I didn't first get to know Mark Badgley and James Mischka through their designs -- I actuallymet them at the Hampton Classic horse show. Mark and James are goodfriends with Cornelia and CZ Guest who introduced me to the brilliant duo. The designers are clearly inspired by their glamorous friends -- their Spring  2011 show was filled with the elegant, flowing dresses thatsomeone who lives a fantasy lifestyle like the Guests or other Badgley Mischka fans like Jennifer Lopez wouldwear. Their look is one that's sexy, effortless and entitled. As the models walked the runway andTemper Trap played "Sweet Disposition" (apparently the theme song of Fashionweek, as I heard it at Minnie Mortimer, too -- I'm actually blasting it as Iwrite this, lol), my leg bounced to the music and I was transported to a Fitzgeraldian scene where everything was unexpected, women were feminine and carefree, champagne flowedand every moment took your breath away. One of my favorite lines in "Sweet Disposition" is  "Don't stop tosurrender." This sentiment was echoed in what I saw in Badgley Mischka's collection. Their clothes encourage the women who wear them to enjoy the moment, relish in the beauty and enjoy life. Thank youMark and James. The platforms, hot shorts, high waisted jeans and gorgeousgowns inspired me to dream for just a moment.
