Fashion Week Sightings

It's amazing what you see on the way to the Dollar Store. Today, the Best Friend and I took a walk to our favorite dollar store, Jack's. We walked past Bryant Park, where Mercedes Benz Fashion Week is in full swing. The Best Friend is a magazine fiend, so we hung out for a couple of minutes so he could score one of the free magazines (The Daily Front Row) that they print for each day of the shows. When we got to the main entrance, it became obvious that one of the MAJOR shows was about to start, because the paparazzi and onlookers were everywhere.

It turns out that the hullabaloo was for none other than Diane von Furstenberg! Jennifer Lopez and Eva Longoria attended the show (although we didn't see them), but we DID see Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter (seen below with Diane's husband Barry Diller):

And we also saw the GORGEOUS Rosario Dawson.


The funny thing about Rosario was that she walked right past us on the sidewalk across the street from the show, and none of the paparazzi noticed her. They were making a fuss over up-and-coming actress Kate Mara (below), and nobody saw Rosario before she ducked into the Bryant Park Hotel, which is where all the gift/swag bag suites are.


After about 2 minutes, Rosario must have decided to get to the show, so she walked out of the hotel and across the street. The paparazzi went CRAZY! I mean, come on guys, it's ROSARIO DAWSON, not Madonna! And, although drop-dead gorgeous - it was weird seeing her in a full-length evening gown at 4:00 in the afternoon.


You know, I really should get out more often...
