Opening Ceremony's Olympic activities still rage on

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style


While the most of us have been glued to the TV for the last couple of weeks watching some the world's best athletes compete at the Beijing Olympics, there's another group of people competing in a very fierce retail competition stateside.

In honor of the summer Olympics, Opening Ceremony released a limited-edition run of metallic gold and silver Air Max 1 and the Nike LunaRacer. They also threw a really big party, too, and even had jewelry designer Philip Crangi host a ping pong match in their store.

Luckily, the good people at Style.com went and documented all of the madness for those who are more into Micheal Phelps instead of Marc Jacobs right now. In this clip, watch as a slew of guests breakdown their funky outfits, amongst other things.

Lauren's Fashion Week Diary: Opening Ceremony

Filed under: Events: On the Scene, Style in the News, Fashion Week

opening ceremony ribbonI know we are already well into the day of runway shows at Mercedes- Benz Fashion Week but let's take it back to 8:00am, before anything really began, shall we? Sure we shall, I am making the rules here.

It was a cold gusty morning in New York City and Bryant Park was buzzing with people, mostly photographers, waiting to see the ribbon get cut, and for the tent doors to fly open. The ribbon ceremony included the cast of the new NBC television program Lipstick Jungle, which airs Feb.7th. I wish I could tell you all beat by beat what happened but the only thing I heard (I certainly couldn't see) was about 100 voices and flash bulbs going off. About five minutes later the event was over and the only thing left was this sad little ribbon.



After everyone got tired of taking photographs of the ribbon, the new challenge was getting inside. They were not opening those doors and we wanted in! Ten long, cold minutes later we were in and were welcomed to a beautiful tent with booths set up with all of our media needs.

IMG, The Heart Truth, Judith Ripka, DHL, Lycra bring the booths at the tent to us this year, and there is even a gorgeous lingerie booth (post to come on that later). The best booth of all, well it's more like a stage, is the American Expresses coverage of the show with Robert Verdi and Roshumba Williams. Throughout the week they will be chatting up the stars and giving American Express cardholders the play-by-play during Fashion Week.
