The collection I was most excited about seeing this New York Fashion Week? WHIT by Whitney Pozgay. And it didn’t disappoint. From bird-print blouses and frocks to paper-bag-waist shorts and pants tied with bows, the whimsical collection felt very Upper East Side meets West Village, which in my opinion, is perfection.

Perfectly styled chignons, head-topping buns, bright red lips, and tomboy flats kept the collection youthful and cool. Gloves also made an appearance, as did skinny belts and strands of pearls.

Preppy stripes mixed with shiny metallics and a model even smiled (smiled! Is that allowed at Fashion Week?!). The collection made me smile too. How about you?
