Wow! Take a look at Kelly Osbourne and her lilac hair backstage at the Francesca Liberatore New York Fashion Week show for Spring 2017. You have to give it to the girl. She is fearless and wonderful.

It was sizzling hot, in the 90s most days at New York Fashion Week for Spring 2017 but, just as they were in the freezing cold, the Fab Fashionistas Seen on Scene were on target with their hair, their makeup, their fashions, jewelry, shoes and accessories.

Interestingly, many were dressed in Zara, some in H&M as well as in top designer labels. There was a lot of lace, and totally bared shoulders to cope with the heat. Everyone was cool, in every way. Check the looks here, then go to my website and see more in the two albums there – http://bit.ly/2cTikVP 17 photos for hair and http://bit.ly/2d3nfHp 19 photos for fashions. (The website is best viewed on a tablet or computer rather than a phone! Sorry about that, but there are now over 4,000 photos archived to inspire you on the website and, well, sigh! )

These are real people, these fashionistas, and they can be as inspirational as anything seen on the runways for today and tomorrow, so click away and enjoy …
