While the fashion industry has a bad reputation for being food phobic, it's amazing how well some of my favorite fashion designers can cook! The American Fashion Cookbook: 100 Designers' Best Recipes is published with the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) which means the proceeds will be helping American fashion designers. Learn how to make Isaac Mizrahi's Mushroom Truffle Spaghetti, Cynthia Rowley's truffle mac and cheese or Diane von Furstenberg's Saturday night chicken. With an introduction by home and cooking maven (and former model) Martha Stewart and over 100 recipes from appetizers to desserts, your favorite designers can accompany you all the way from the closet to the kitchen! If you've got some fashionista foodie friends, this would be the perfect gift for the holidays. The next time someone complains that no one eats in the fashion world, pull out this cookbook, whip up something delicious, and prove them totally wrong!
Price: $29.70

Any fashion week brings with it a slew of star-studded parties, but next month's spring 2010 shows in NYC will be ushered in by an absolute extravaganza- Fashion's Night Out. The September 10th event will feature everything from model and celebrity appearances to in-store events and meet and greets, and of course, shopping! It's being put on by Vogue, the CFDA, NYC & Company, and the City of New York, with the idea that engaging the city in the fun and excitement of fashion and shopping will restore consumer confidence once again. So what can we expect? For starters, Anna Wintour will appear at Macy's in Queens (wow, who would've thought) to sign t-shirts (again, wow), Andre Leon Talley will host a game at Bergdorf's. Coco Rocha will be doing a special performance at DKNY, Sasha Pivovarova will be showing her art at Henri Bendel, and it-girls like Harley Viera-Newton and Alexandra and Theodora Richards will be DJ-ing about town. Want more? Manolo Blahnik will hold a meet-and-greet, Oscar de la Renta will sing, Opening Ceremony is having a block party, and Chanel will have a customized handbag studio! Still not excited? Mark your calendars: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen will be bartending at Barneys- is it bad that I want someone to order a black and Tanner?
