Going to New York Fashion Week is officially on my Bucket
List. Incredible designers, cutting-edge garments, non-stop fashion events? I'm
so there - even if it's just in
spirit for now. In preparation, I styled three outfits that I would wear if I
was ducking into the Tents, getting a sneak peak of my fave designers' Fall
2014 collections. I'd also be soaking up fashion inspiration from the motley
crew of stylists, bloggers, designers, and other industry bigwigs in attendance.
What would you wear to NYFW?
DAY ONE:
After quickly settling into my hotel and grabbing a quick bite, I would change into my first day's uniform: patterned blazer, graphic tee, leather skirt and orange booties. I love it because it's fun and edgy, with a hint of sophistication from the blazer. My schedule for the day would include swooning at the Carolina Herrera, Milly by Michelle Smith, and Zac Posen shows. Afterwards, me and my crew would hit a few industry parties. My low-heeled booties would ensure that I could still walk by the end of the night.

DAY TWO:
Still punchy from the previous
day's adventures, Day 2 would find me excitedly watching the collections of
eveningwear duo Badgley Mischka,
Eastern-inspired Vivienne Tam, and
the up-and-comers from The Art
Institutes. In between cocktail hours and nibbles, I would try to squeeze
in a little shopping. I would glam up ripped jeans with a sparkly, feminine top
and insanely hot fringe jacket:
Zeagoo Blouse: $12; Tim Ryan sequin-fringe jacket: $2,755; Paige "Jimmy Jimmy" Jeans: $262; It Malt Be Love Wedges: $45; Emilio Pucci vintage clutch: $1,120 Hmmm. . .this fantasy is getting very expensive. |
DAY THREE:
My last day would be spent peeping
always-chic Michael
Kors, wacky Betsey Johnson, and
modern-vintage hybrid Anna Sui collections. My
outfit would reflect the original and exuberant garments strolling
down the runway:
I'm Isola Marras top: $201; MCL Pendant: $2,330; Ann Taylor gloves: $70; Miss Selfridge boyfriend coat: $130; Erdem Aysha paillette-embellished skirt: $1,930; Rag & Bone Harrow boot: $635 |
Which look is your fave?
