NYFW Fall 2013 :: What I Learned

Hi all! I thought I'd take a little break from all the outfit posts lately (actually, in reality, I was off yesterday and felt really lazy and therefore spent the entire day in my pajamas :D) and share with you a few things I learned from NYFW for Fall 2013. This is in no way a formal review or professional thoughts on the shows, just things I personally noticed and am looking forward to come this fall. I hope you enjoy!

To The Streets: NYFW

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend! New York Fashion week is almost at an end and while most people are buzzing about the collections so far (which have been pretty amazing), I've also been checking out the fantastic street style!

I find that street style really inspires and gives me ideas on how to wear different items more so than any other styling venue (magazines, fashion shows, catalogues, etc.). Whenever I'm at a loss on what to wear I always find myself browsing street style blogs or Pinterest to get inspiration and 9 times out of 10 I can usually come up with something.

Here are some of my favorites from NYFW so far and some ideas on how to recreate the look...Enjoy!

Rock This!: NYFW F/W 2012

New York Fashion Week by kinksarethenewpink featuring clutch bags

Happy Friday everyone! New York Fashion Week officially started yesterday and while I won't be in attendance (I really just couldn't fit it into my schedule ;) ), I thought it'd be fun to create an outfit I would wear if I did go to NYFW.

I'm assuming at NYFW you're running around a lot, from a show to an event to another show, so I would want my outfit to be comfortable with easy mobility so I can run from place to place without killing myself. You all know I'm a big fan of maxi skirts and I love the rust-orange color of this one, paired with a nice red suede bootie and a chambray top, I feel comfy/casual yet fashionable. Then throw on a cropped fur coat and oversized fedora for extra warmth during those dashes outside to the next show. Add an envelope clutch to carry the necessities (cellphone, notepad, pen, invites, etc.), finish the outfit off with simple accessories and don't forget your camera! And there you have it!

Are any of you in New York for Fashion Week? If so, what are you wearing? If not, what would you wear?
