Springtime with Lacoste at the Gansevoort Park Avenue

By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent

So you all remember last September when I went to the Lacoste runway show and was THRILLED with what I saw? I literally talked about how fabulous this collection was for months. So I was ecstatic to head to the spring/summer 2012 launch party alongside Vogue at their boutique inside the Gansevoort Park Avenue. Posh, indeed.

Guests were greeted with champagne and macaroons – two of this girl’s favorite things in life. In the far corner was a live band playing everything from old school to new hits. Guests were mingling between the rack and table of warm-weather attire and were able to see first hand the amazing creations of Felipe Oliveira Baptista. I won’t gush anymore because you all heard all the great things I had to say from this post last season. But, you MUST get to a Lacoste boutique soon and stock up on some amazing goodies. I promise you’ll be blown away by how creative and talented Baptista is, and what he’s done to change the way you look at Lacoste.

P.S. Twilight actress Nikki Reed looked glowing at the party in a Lacoste geometric silk blouse (the top is gorgeous and so is she!).
