Next Stop, New York City | #PacoRabanne’s One Million & Lady Million Fragrance Appearance

Paco Rabanne SUV 632x421 Next Stop, New York City | #PacoRabannes One Million & Lady Million Fragrance Appearance

It’s official. One Million and Lady Million are unquestionably an item after their subsequent public appearances as a couple at the Paco Rabanne Fragrance Event in Chicago and Miami this week.
Tourists and locals alike trekking the famous Michigan Avenue, Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, heard the buzz outside Macy’s at Water Tower. Buzz that was confirmed worthy when the paparazzi arrived, zipping about like hungry zoo animals. A red carpet was laid out and the crowd’s anticipation grew, people stepping over one another to get closer to the action. A striking man stepped out of a black SUV and the paparazzi’s cameras went off like lightning.

A woman followed and the crowd yelled out, “Lady Million!” And that’s how she looked—like a million bucks. The cameras continued to flash and the two embraced much to the cheers from the crowd.

Samplers took on the crowd and the bustling boulevard, providing Chi-town with their first experience testing the decadent scent of Paco Rabanne’s new fragrances One Million and Lady Million.

The scene didn’t last long (hey, stars have places to be, no?). Just as quickly as they poured in, they leave—the paparazzi following. Next stop was Miami.

In sunny South Florida, Lady Million wore a stunning metallic gold dress that literally stopped traffic—even in the sexiest city on the planet.

Paparazzi flooded the red carpet outside of Macy’s Dadeland, hoping to get their million-dollar shot of the hot, new couple. Excitement built when One Million reached inside his designer suit only to offer Lady Million the lavish ring she’s been waiting for. Lady Million was not impressed until One Million finally revealed his second gift to her, a golden briefcase containing nothing less than diamonds—rows of Paco Rabanne Lady Million diamond fragrances! One Million’s charisma won the crowd over and soon everyone was cheering him on.

Lady Million’s publicist informed us later in the evening that their third appearance—in the Big Apple—has been rescheduled to Friday, September 30th due to a forecast of inclement weather.

Lady Million and One Million will be making their next public appearance this upcoming Friday for the highly anticipated Paco Rabanne One Million & Lady Million Fragrance Event in New York. A surprise gold rush and an abundance of diamonds are scheduled to hit four locations in NYC.

Haute Summer Sizzle: MBFW Swim ON Trend Report

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim 2012 was literally a melting pot of cross cultural flavor and a vibrant display of bold, swim trends that virtually surpassed the hundred-degree-weather in Miami Beach.

Trends this year were hotter than ever, drawing inspiration from all over the globe, particularly from exotic regions like Brazil and Australia. Tribal prints, vibrant color and alternative style graced the runway on the very anticipated MBFW Swim 2012. Some of our favorite designers included Caffè Swimwear, diNeila Brazil, White Sands, Luli Fama and Have Faith.

If you were not able to attend the events in Miami Beach, don’t worry. Luckily, we have you covered on the top five MBFW Swim trends to try this summer.

Retro Silhouettes

Slowly but surely the high-waisted trend has conquered over its competitor, the infamous low-rise bottom. This year, even the sexiest Brazilian cuts have gone high waisted. Watch out girls, retro bikini silhouettes are making their big comeback this season. From left: White Sands, Have Faith Swimwear, diNeila Brazil.

We have all seen the surplus of turquoise jewels, hats and dresses in each and every one ofour favorite stores this season. Turquoise-colored garments have certainly been an ‘it’ item this summer and the trend is exponentially greater in the swim category. Both solid and printed shades of turquoise on bikinis, one-piece swimwear and cover-ups were displayed by topmodels on the runway this year. From left: Caffe Swimwear, Luli Fama, Caffe Swimwear.

The plunge neckline was prominent on most of the runway shows of this year’s MBFW Swim.This trend made one-piece swimwear appear far from conservative. Sophisticated one-pieces with a sexy edge strolled many major runways, most of which featured a deep, plunge neckline. From left: White Sands, Caffe Swimwear, Caffe Swimwear.

Sheer Sexy Cover-Ups

For a sophisticated South Beach celebrity look, a sheer printed cover-up is a definite must-have. Caffè Swimwear nailed this trend right on target. Our favorite was a tropical print yellow cover-up strutted by former Miss World USA Lane Lindell. Pictured: Caffe Swimwear.

Sheer Haute Summer Sizzle: MBFW Swim ON Trend ReportBoho Headwear

Headbands of all shapes and colors were the perfect addition to designer bikinis this year. The collection that most captivated us with their extraordinary headwear combos was diNeila Brazil,which paired most of their safari-chic pieces with contrasting headband hues. Pictured: diNeila Brazil.
