For today’s Barry Brinker Trunk Show, I hired a caterer to serve mimosas and styled a gorgeous fashion model into 7 outfits with matching trunk show pieces. It was so much fun. Who wouldn’t enjoy dressing such a perfect body? I wish I had her 34-24-34 measurements. But alas, my waistline keeps growing with each passing year it seems!

The first two outfits were from Elie Tahari’s latest collection.

I just loved these colors with the model’s hair color.

This bright look is made up of Saks Fifth Avenue’s latest beauty bag promotion and a neon yellow outfit from Theory. The shoes are Jimmy Choos. I loved that they had a little sparkle.

Isn’t this sunny yellow so bright and fresh on her?

For an entirely different look, I dressed our lovely model, Margarita in a more sophisticated neutral from designer Piazza Sempione, shoes – Prada.

Everyone loved this necklace / ring Barry Brinker combo.

I wouldn’t have picked this outfit for myself but I knew Margarita could rock it. All these horizontal stripes in candy colors made her super slim body stand out even more. Here, I paired her casual cotton dress from Splendid with Tory Burch flip flops and a straw hat. Check out the close-up of the Barry Brinker jade necklace shown below!

The next outfit was for a sexy evening out. I wanted to make sure to vary the outfits and styles. It was so much fun given Margarita looked fabulous in everything. I sort of wore these outfits vicariously through her. You would need such a perfect figure to pull the below off. The talented designer, Barry, accessorized this one for me using some long pearls for sort of a 40s feel.

The shoes are the model’s own. I thought this look had a sexy, vintage feel.

Above, is a dress from Joie, Jimmy Choo sparkly flats and a couple necklaces again from Barry Brinker. I loved the muted orange stripes with her hair.
