Join Vince Camuto and Erica and Lauren, creators of the cool DIY blog Honestly…WTF for an awesome Fashion’s Night Out this Thursday September 6! Check out more info about the event and directions on how to win a $500 Vince Camuto gift card here!

The oh-so-chic & affordable shoe company, Nine West, has dipped a toe (okay, a whole foot) into the digital age with the launch of their fashion-focused video-centric network that spans across YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr.

Designer Lisa Perry is known for her charming, retro fashions, so her collaboration with ABC’s new series PAN AM for FNO fits like a tailored, blue pencil skirt. The 60s-themed show serves as inspiration for both the invitation (which appropriately reads like an old-fashioned plane ticket) and the goodie bag as well: a vintage-styled PAN AM explorer purse, which will be gifted to the first 50 people who arrive. A few members of the cast will be joining the celebration as well, including star Christina Ricci, leaving more for attendees to check out than Perry’s vibrant fall collection.

Unless you’ve been holed up in your apartment for the past few weeks fearing a return of the hurricane, you’ve probably noticed every bus, flier, and store window (not to mention, website) advertising Thursday’s Fashion’s Night Out. You’ve also probably noticed that each event looks stellar. If you have a love affair with jeans, add True Religion’s FNO event to your itinerary. Pick up a new pair of pants and personalize them with screen printing while listening to music by DJ Elle Dee and noshing on food from Silkstone.

As we comb through our favorite New York Fashion Week moments, our neighbors at Ben Sherman on Spring St. are at the top of our list with their delightful little prank—or anthropological case study on your average New Yorker. What happens when you hang a “Shop Load of Shirts” outside your store windows? Watch the video after the cut to find out.
