Are you ready for the exclusive…
Some people may think what would fashion have to do with football. Well, whenever players are off the field, but still in front of the camera they're expected to be impeccably dressed in tailored suits. And that's exactly what I got to see. New and returning players modeling fantastic Italian suits from Eredi Pisano’s Spring Summer 2012 collection. As you know I love jackets so of course I was more focused on the blazers lol. Overall the collection was a mix of professional to casual chic using rich fabrics with a variety of colors & patterns. The key to looking good in an outfit period is tailoring and some of these guys were really tall and had proportions I'm sure are far from the average yet each suit seemed to be from their personal closets. Like usual after the show is the after party and it's not a party without drinks and food! The bar was sponsored by Ciroc who had fun drinks like the Red Berry Glam and Pineapple Coco Loso. The food was catered by Contornos which I personal had the privilege to eat at their press opening a couple months ago. Needless to say I went to their line first and got a plate :) everything was just as delicious as I remembered! All around the Audi Forum showroom were beautiful paintings from the Blu Art Foundation & Aaron Maybin Foundation. Former NFL player, Matthew Rice and Aaron Maybin of the NY Jets both using their NFL influence to give back to those who need it most. The illustrations were made in vibrant colors using oil & water paints.

Summer has absolutley everything…except for football. Every year I get excited for the warm weather, extended hours of daylight and the outdoor festivities, even though I'm secretly counting down to September. Last Thursday I went to the ladies shopping event for the opening of NYC's first ever NFL pop-up shop. Usually when I go to event I have to rush and go across town to get there. This time I only needed about 5 mins...my office is literally next door! In the last few years the amount of team sportswear for ladies has grown tremendously. There are so many options to look cute and feminine while cheering for our favorite teams. I'm from Chicago so obviously my heart lies with the Bears! But of course I have made room for my new home New York teams (more so the Giants….don't hate me lol). The guy's side opened first, I strolled in one afternoon while taking a needed break from staring at my computer screens. They have every team and represented, not to mention the awesome photography shots of famous players. I even noticed some players shoes incased like Tom Brady, Ray Lewis and for the new comers Cam Newton. Same type of decor on the women's. You can find anything you're looking for, from nail polish to boots and everything in between. I was amazed how much the amount they actually had in store…purses, bikinis, new style of beads made from kukui (Hawaiian) nuts and there was plenty for kids too! I would have to say the highlight of the night was meeting Osi Umenyiora & Dustin Keller. Both were extremely nice and happy to take pictures with anyone who asked. They had delicious snacks and you know I love to eat so of course right as I take a bite of a mini cheeseburger there was Osi, lol. He actually waited for me to finish chewing and took a pic with me :) How sweet was that!
