Fern Mallis show on SiriusXM Wraps up New York Fashion Week

Fern Mallis rocks Fashion Week. 

She always has, since its inception, as she basically founded the week that moves New York fashion -- and New York City -- forward twice a year.

Fern Mallis surrounded by her panel of experts, Amanda Miller of Saks Fifth Avenue, fashion editor Ann Caruso, Dirk Standen of Style.com, Refinery29.com's Christene Barberich, Tom Julian Group's Tom Julian and The Daily's Eddie Roche.

I was lucky enough to be part of

Fern Mallis and More Happiness is a Bright Summer Dress

Just reading in WWD.com about Fern Mallis and her Calvin Klein interview last night, part of her Fashion Icons with Fern Mallis series at the 92nd Street Y.

Which none of us should miss, although I did and I haven't got a clue who else she has or is going to put in the "haute seat," as 92Y termed it (love it!), but at least I got to see her during NYFW last month, working her Sirius Radio gig. AND she was wearing one of my personal fav trends, Happiness is a Bright Summer Dress, or in this case, a tunic with capri pants!

Thought on this rainy, dreary Octoberian day, we could use a little bright happiness.

Even taxicabs got into the happiness spirit during NYFW! Snagged this shot just outside of Lincoln Center.
