Last night's Lucky Shops VIP shopping night was a bit of stylish mayhem in the middle of Manhattan's Meatpacking District. I estimate there were at least a zillion people in attendance, all carrying reusable Lucky shoppers loaded with discounted designer duds and nibbling away at the most adorable miniature hors d’oeuvres I've ever seen.

There were two whole floors of excellent bargains, with most stalls offering 30 – 50% off of retail prices, and some even more.
Rachel Zoe presented her second collection for her eponymous line today at at her showroom in midtown Manhattan. It was a hot-ticket show with a line snaking around 39th St. onto Broadway. And, ever the perfectionist, Zoe delivered. The showroom was abuzz (and aTwitter) with praise for Zoe, and before we got a chance to talk to her, stylist Mary Alice Stephensen gushed that she "LOVED IT" three times.

"It's when she was running around being glamorous without ever trying to be glamorous." Which is quite a thing to aspire to. But Zoe's collection might just get you there. Check out a few more snaps I took of the presentation. We'll post the full gallery, review, and the deets on what Skyler Morrison Berman was wearing, later.
