My NY Fashion Week coverage continues, and will for some time — I edited about 250 photos from this trip alone! Keep reading for my “glam punk opera” adventure with Yukiro. (Above shot by Louie Metzner.)

First, a shoutout to Meinto.com. The online boutique brings together small selections from local designers, making them available worldwide. I’m all about supporting indie labels, and Meinto has a great eye for unique and well-made pieces.

It’s hard to pick my favorites from more than 2500 items. For a rocker-Gothic look: fleur de lis tote, white leather jacket, grey pearl rosary necklace, open-toed studded shoes, and long black skirt.

Meinto is currently holding a contest for a $1000 shopping spree; you can enter via their Facebook. Go for it!

In New York City, Yukiro and I were hosted by the space-themed hotel, Yotel. Needless to say, it suited us to a T. We can’t wait to show you the fun video we made.

Many fashion week bashes occur at the Tribeca Grand Hotel. We went for the Houghton afterparty.

We enjoyed cavorting with the Roma!, a glam-opera band that embraces decadence and fantastical facial hair.

    Thank you for including this photo of Fourbo from the punk rock opera ROMA!  I appreciated the outfits you were both wearing at the Houghton After Party at the Tribeca Grand Hotel.  Perhaps you’ll catch ROMA at Joe’s Pub on 3 March 11:30.  I’ll look for you.

    La Carmina, you’re looking thinner in these pictures. Have you lost weight? or maybe it’s just the clothes you are wearing.
