The New York Narrative

Hi Everyone,

Is it me, or has it taken forever for the weekend to get here? But don’t worry, “The Weekly Roundup” is here!

With the Oscars so close and Grammy’s this weekend (as are the BAFTA’s which I’m much more excited for), there wasn’t much to cover Fashion wise this week. There was an Academy Awards Nominee luncheon though where the gorgeous gals  brought their best “ladies to lunch looks” to the step and repeat. Interested to see who’s look you’re into the most; check out the poll below.

I’m not sure I’ll cover Grammy’s fashion, it just ends up being so tacky, fleshy and bling-y.  May take a hard pass unless someone really moves me on the Red Carpet.

So take a look, jump down for links, and have a great weekend!
