Shannon the Photo Gal at New York Fashion Week

New York Fashion Week - or NYFW for those in the know, or those too lazy to type - happens twice a year - in early spring and early fall. Designers, models, fashion editors, celebrities, buyers, and photographers pack into venues large and small for 15 minutes of pure fashion rapture. And the scene spills out onto the sidewalks of NYC, and for this first NYFW report, the scene is all about cobalt blue. Once, solely the color of superheros, cobalt blue can be the sartorial equivalent of a wink and smile, or playful/sexy/strong.
