Elana is a Fashion News intern at Teen Vogue and we found each other outside of the Apple Store on Fifth Avenue and Central Park South. The first time I spotted Elana was at New York Fashion Week last September in a gorgeous Rag and Bone dress. As you can see, we had a bit of fun as we bought a pretzel off a street vendor to feed Ricki the horse, stood inside Central Park and shot Columbus Circle in the background, and then got a bit creative at the end with the tree branches.

This shot is actually an out take from a series of shots I submitted to French Glamour for their July street style issue. 18 of the shots in the issue are mine including three of my favorite people: Louise Ebel, Elana Fishman, and Vika Gazinskaya. Some shots will also be published in German Glamour and Spanish Glamour as well.

One cool thing about the local New York City fashion circuit is how it's kind of like a mini-family get together during the week. Last night at the Juicy Couture Showroom, Juicy brought together some of New York City's funnest and cutest bloggers to get up close and personal with the new Juicy collection for summer. The highlight of the evening was when celebrity fitness instructor Tracy Anderson (fitness instructor to Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow) lead a mini exercise routine right inside the showroom. And just for an FYI, Lara Stone recently began using the Tracy Anderson routine well.
While campaign models like Hanne Gaby as seen in the post below and Daria Strokous weren't there, the festivity was a total blast. Juicy had nutritionists come consult with the drinks menu for the evening resulting in healthy and refreshing drinks ranging in title from The Hottie to Revitalize. I opted for the Hottie which was mixed with Herradura Silver Tequila, maple syrup, lemon juice, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. I swear I was transported to the beaches of Barcelona when I drank this.
I think it's safe to say that the clothing on display in the showroom had a similarly inspirational effect on the others present. Hats were tried on, sunglasses were playfully put on, and an overall good time was had by all.
