My Lovely PR Assistant Brette:(**Brette’s favorite designers are Diane von Furstenberg, Coco Chanel and Monique Lhuillier.)

This summer I have been lucky enough to land one the best PR Assistant’s.  Brette Kreyer  has been working with me for a little over two months. She is a recent graduate from St. Bonaventure University with a master’s degree in Integrated Marketing Communications.  Brette is currently working and living in the Buffalo metropolitan area and is looking to shift her sights to New York City as she moves forward in her career. Since joining  Manchester Public Relations Brette  hopes to be able to apply her marketing experience and education to grow in the public relations field as it relates to the fashion industry.

Brette has been inseparable from her iPhone and has not been able to put it down. She has discovered some great applications and wanted to share the fun fashion one’s!

Scoring a front row seat at a high fashion runway show in Milan and Paris takes celebrity status or knowing the right people…until now.  Phone applications now put the latest trends and styles at your fingertips.

Brands like Diane von Furstenberg and Chanel have begun creating applications that can be downloaded to iPhones and Blackberries so you can maintain your fashionista lifestyle from any location.  These applications give viewers access to videos and photos from the world’s hottest fashion shows, blogs from designers and editors of today’s most popular magazines and online stores that allow you to purchase your favorite items from your palm.

These applications can be downloaded for free or for as much as $8.99 each.  Here are the top 11 fashion applications downloads to iPhones, according to NBC New York.  (Descriptions taken from iPhone applications.)
