"  In between my backstage beauty appointments, I ran into actresses Joy Bryant (at Thakoon) and Ana Ortiz (Malandrino). Here&amp;#039;s what these lovely ladies had to say... \u2014Emily Hebert ELLE.com: Are you wearing Thakoon right now?Joy Bryant: No, unfortunately I&amp;#039;m not. I&amp;#039;m wearing a bike-friendly outfit right now because I biked here. And something flew into my eye so now I have pink eye. I biked from my hotel on 4th Street.  ELLE.com: Wow, that&amp;#039;s ambitious. What made you decide to bike to the show?Joy Bryant: Well, I wanted to bike to as many shows as possible and it hasn&amp;#039;t really worked out that way. Today seemed like the perfect day to do it so I had to wear a bike-friendly outfit. I just wanted to forego the car for a little bit.   Bryant showed up to Thakoon wearing an Urban Outfitters dress, H&amp;amp;amp;M blazer, Minnetonka boots, and a Missoni bag   While Joy dressed down, Ana decided to dress up! &amp;quot;This week is so exciting for me specifically,&amp;quot; says Ortiz. &amp;quot;Everybody else on [Ugly Betty] kind of has a really beautiful style and they get to wear the most fabulous clothes\u2014and my character doesn&amp;#039;t. So for me, this week is a really wonderful opportunity to put on really glamorous clothes and show everybody that I&amp;#039;m not Hilda!&amp;quot;   Ortiz paired her Malandrino dress with Dominique Cohen accessories and Jimmy Choo heels "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
