New York Fashion Week, What I Wore: Day 6

by

On this day, I was starting to feel very run down. Working until 2:30am every day for the past week was really starting to catch up with me. Lugging around my computer, and about 1,000 other items required a lug sole, and what better than Doc Martens? Plus, I love the filmy nature of this pretty, feminine blouse played against the ruggedness of the classic 8-lace boot.

What I wore:

Printed top with shoulder and side ruching, Nicole by Nicole Miller (courtesy of Nicole Miller)

Leggings, Seed Clothing Co. (no longer available)

Batwing Sweater (Norma Kamali for Wal-Mart)

Dr. Martens (courtesy of Dr. Martens)

New York Fashion Week Outfit of the Day (Day 6)

by

Sometimes dressing casually can still look put together. Take for example, my outfit, seen here at the Chris Benz show on Day 6 of fashion week:  all of these pieces I’ve worn in a casual manner before, but thrown together they present more a casual, chic, effortless vibe (at least in my mind!). Toward the end of the week, my main focus was on my work, and not necessarily my outfits, so style and comfort had to go hand in hand. I went with reliable pieces, most of which I have had in my wardrobe for a while, that I knew wouldn’t let me down.  In this look:

Fashion Week Day 2: The Look for Day & Night- Runway Shows by Day, Fashion Night Out by Evening

by

Usually I try to avoid any New York Fashion Week outfit changes at ALL costs, but with accidentally sleeping through my alarm and an 8am backstage call time, I didn’t have much time to get all gussied up for the entire day! Staying comfy and stylish for New York Fashion week on Day #2 included:

I had a shawl in my bag for weather fluctuations (you never know!) And for Fashion’s Night Out, I decide to gussy p a bit!

  • Makeup Application, compliments of Lindsey from Bobbi Brown
  • Kushyfoot tights, compliments of Kushyfoot (they have massage treads on the bottom – how divine!)
  • Nicole Miller dress, from RenttheRunway.com (more to come about this later)
  • Faux leather cream jacket by JouJou, from T.J. Maxx
  • Same Sorrelli jewelry as worn for the day
  • Calvin Klein Patent Leather Wedges

The Sorreli jewelry was the perfect transition from my day to night look, and my bag, although on the rather large side, was still on-trend and matched the colors in my ‘evening look’ to make it work.

More New York Fashion Week looks to come soon, plus a chance to win my Sorrelli jewelry!
