Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Hits NYC

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week has hit New York City. It has always been a dream of mine to go a show at the tents. My first Fashion Week experience was this past Fall, the dream became reality. It's been incredible learning more about the industry and figuring out my place in the mix of it all. Yes it is awesome to see the latest in the world of fashion, but my favorite part has been connecting with other bloggers and fashionistas at the different events. My hope as I grow as a blogger is to never take advantage of the unique opportunities I have been given to connect with people in this sphere of life.
It is both fun and challenging to pick an outfit to wear to a Fashion Week event. In the end, it is important to be true to who you are and your personal style. It is super easy to get caught up in being noticed or standing out, but it is those who are confident and comfortable in their own shoes who draw the most attention. This NYFW has seen temperatures below zero. A statement jacket is key to the success of an outfit, going without one is simply not acceptable. You must always also be camera ready, photographers are everywhere wanting to take a picture if you're ready to pose.
I decided on a classic for my first outfit. A black and white palette can never do you wrong. I mixed a vintage herringbone with a very trendy over-the-knee boot. I couldn't help but bring along my faux fur jacket to keep me warm in the Winter chill.
