Jenni Kayne wasted no time getting down to the nitty-gritty for Spring 2014; her presentation at Industria Studios was all about simplicity, leaving the clothes to take center stage.

We kicked our day off bright and early with the debut of the first ever plus size fashion line to show at fashion week, and never slowed down. From checking out the best beauty backstage at Rag & Bone and Helmut Lang, to scoping models-off-duty, we saw a lot. Check out all the awesome stuff we saw on day two of New York Fashion Week:

Ambre Dahan, the French-born, L.A.-based design director of Joe's Jeans (and wife of Joe's Jeans founder Joe Dahan), knows that the online resale space is competitive. And crowded. After all, 2012 was filled with launch-after-launch: The Real Real, Vaunte, Shop Hers, and Material Wrld, to name a few. But Dahan believes that her self-funded site, Walk In My Closet, which launches today, is unique enough to make a real impression on the market. And she may be right.

The first official day of "spring" is tomorrow. Apparently. (With another snow day yesterday we're starting to doubt spring will ever come.) Even t

Pre-Fall 2013 has wrapped!...or has it?...Nobody can quite say for sure, but with the Fall 2013 shows quickly approaching in mid-February, we figured now was as good a time as any to take inventory of our favorites from “the season between seasons."

For the past few months, on and off, I've had a strange, undying obsession with finding the perfect pair of proper d'Orsay flats that I could actually afford. Well, poof! Here they are.

Designers have been working on the railroad all the livelong day.

We're keeping our coverage coming with these new show notes and galleries! We're obsessed with the off-duty surfers at Jenni Kayne, the black and white palette at Kaelen, and the gothic touches at Katie Gallagher. Feel like you're missing anything? Check out our New York Fashion Week homepage!

The Clothes: Off-duty surfer girls who prefer to keep it cute ‘n casual will absolutely love this ‘borrowed from the boyfriend’ collection. Chock full of oxford shirts, bermuda shorts, and oversize blazers in boyish silhouettes feminized with scrunched sleeves, higher hems, and slimmer fits, next season’s standout looks included a canary yellow short suit, mint-and-navy striped trousers, and a shocking pink floor-length frock that’s begging for a stroll down the red carpet. (P.S. We’re o-b-s-e-s-s-e-d with the pointed d’orsay flats—they almost look like plimsolls!)

CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund nominated design house Creatures of the Wind collaborated with J. Crew to design a capsule collection and it's finally available. Well worth the wait, if you ask us. {FabSugar} In more J. Crew news, the ever-expanding brand has enlisted famed street style photographers Scott Schuman and Garance Doré to photograph, film and profile tastemakers across the globe for a project titled "Hello World." {WWD} Bill Gaytten, John Galliano's temporary replacement chez Dior, presented his final collection for the fashion house. The new Creative Director Raf Simons will make his Dior debut with the brand's Couture collection next month. {Vogue UK}

Upon walking into the Chatwal Hotel to see Jenni Kayne’s Fall offerings we observed the designer’s nanny tending to her new-ish born baby as it sobbed beside the lobby’s inviting canteen of warm apple cider. While the scenario may seem trivial, it was rather signature of Kayne whose laid-back vibe was in play from the get-go, lending a soft sense of humanism to a week that’s so often anything but. Kayne’s clothes have become well-loved for their easy femininity—fool proof pieces to help you stylishly battle everyday life through each triumph and mood swing. While this season was slightly less designed than past outings, there were still plenty of items that made a roomful of girls swoon, many battling for a chance to wind their way through two small racks that housed Kayne’s fall collection.

Full disclosure: we have a soft spot for California girl Jenni Kayne and her consistently beautiful takes on rich minimalism. Upon arriving at Industria to check out this season’s goods, the show notes told us to expect outdoorsy layers and textural extras “straight from a glamorous grandma with love.” Unfortunately, our grannies were never quite this chic—the pointy-toed d’Orsay flats and neat fur caps paired with many of the looks made comfy simplicity look totally luxe. As for the clothes themselves, they were the sort of thing a city girl might wear if she took to a cabin in the country for a weekend getaway—but still had fashionable friends to impress. Lumberjack looks, these were certainly not! Think chunky cable-knit sweaters paired with slinky, silky maxiskirts, or a tailored coat with a blue fur collar that would be perfect to shrug on to beat the forest chill. A few hits of bright cerulean in the form of a long-sleeved dress and billowy pants provided a welcome color contrast, while a sheer lace shell and a teensy golden skirt dripping in sequins gave the party girls in attendance something to lust after too. Kayne showed once again that she’s honed in on her design strengths—long, lean silhouettes, largely neutral palettes punctuated by pops of bold color, and ageless separates—and is comfortable delivering these sorts of wearable pieces each season. And whether you’re an East or West Coaster, or prefer city over country, that’s a style M.O. we definitely admire.

The Pre-Fall 2011 collections are trickling in one by one and we've gathered our favorites so far. From Chanel's Byzantine-inspired looks, to Zac Posen's bold and colorful pieces, we're impressed. Take a look at our top ten.

I don't have a license, so I'll never live in Los Angeles. But every once in a while, I get the urge to buy a 10-pack of driving lessons. Because let's face it: LA is just easier. And it's reflected in the clothes. Maybe that's why I'm so attracted to LA-based designers like Scott Sternberg and Jenni Kayne. The latter, who showed her breezy collection at Industria Studios yesterday, has been a favorite of mine for years. It was all so adorable, from the high-waisted berry shorts to the sage-colored lace dress. But my favorites, I must say, were the...wait for it...twinsets. Yes, twinsets--they looked lovely. Especially in that terra cotta color that's been on so many runways this season. They made me want to throw a sweater over my shoulders. And they also made me want to move to LA, where I could wear a twinset and somehow still come off looking casual and cool.

Stella McCartney sent pants-less looks down her runway as early as her Spring 2008 collection (September of 2007, when Gaga was still just a noise bab
