On Saturday I was invited to go backstage and view the preparations for the Rafael Cennamo’s Fall/Winter 2013 presentation. I really liked his collection last season, so I was excited to get a behind-the-scenes peek this time around. Take a look at some snapshots I took below!

![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]

Agreed Jackie- I loved the makeup too!
So dramatic! I did really like the collection and the makeup. I feel like I can always expect Rafael Cennamo to really put on a show!
Yes, he definitely brought the drama this season and last!
love the dramatic makeup. I was there for the show and it was one of the best I’ve seen. I recapped it in my #NYFW favorite things post! http://bit.ly/155sr19
