ALU at NYFW – Day Three At The Tents
Posted on February 16, 2009
 Considering how early our day started, we really shouldn’t have been as energized as Jamie looks in this photo. Maybe it’s lack of sleep causing our giddyness. Maybe it’s that the week is still young. Regardless, we had a great time at the tents yesterday. In addition to our backstage coverage, we spent some time doing a little people watching and celeb stalking. Check out the highlights from day three of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week after the jump! |
 On our way out of the Herve Leger backstage area, we caught Project Runway winner Christian Siriano, chatting away on his cell. |
 As we headed for the exit, celebs started streaming into the W Backstage Lounge for the Herve Leger show. So we decided to hang and see who we could spot. First up, Michelle Trachtenberg. |
 Then Jessica Stroup from 90210 |
 And since we were obviously weren’t getting great picture lighting backstage we made a beeline for the door just as Diane von Furstenberg made her way into the tents, family in tow. |
 Outside, we waited with the crowd and herd of paparazzi and spotted Lily Collins, daughter of Phil Collins. |
 January Jones of Mad Men |
 And Lucy Liu popped in just as we were heading off to our next show. |
 Of course when you’re hanging with the paparazzi, there’s bound to be some craziness. Does this guy think his crazy hat will make celebs look his way for photos? They aren’t dogs. You can’t just dangle something shiny to make them look at you. |
 Don’t get me started on this guy. As if the silver lame shirt isn’t enough, he’s also balls to the wall crazy. As Lily Collins approached the tents, we heard his scream, “I GOT IT!” and without missing a beat, “Who was that?” After the uber patient and friendly IMG staffer gave her name, he wandered off only to return five minutes later asking, “What was her name? Nilly? Milly?” He then turned to me asking if any more celebs were coming. Before I could answer, Jamie dragged me off saying, “don’t talk to him!” Enounters of the looney kind. Good times! |
 I spotted this silver chrome boots on a show attendee and just had to grab a quick shot. Fun, no? |
 In celeb nail news, Kim Kardashian was spotted at the Y-3 show wearing a nail ring from Bijules. What do we think of that kids? |
