Well y’all, as you can see, I clearly got behind on posting here on the blog. If you have not been following along in Instagram Stories, what in the world are you waiting for? I am literally sharing everything about my NYC trip on there!
Saturday and Sunday were busy, busy days! When I tell you that my eyes are heavy and my feet are sore, I do NOT tell a lie. But man, this has been the most incredible trip. I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again and again, I am thrilled to be here with my girlfriends! It makes me miss Houston so much!
We had a jammed packed schedule (what else is new), but here are the highlights:
Taoray Wang
I started my day at Taoray Wang. The clothes were beyond stunning. Very chic, the looks were cohesive and so practical for everyday life. I could literally see myself wearing everything that came down the runway. My favorite was the ruffle belts that she paired with the elaborate blouses. Check out the photos below:
Banana Republic
I loved this collection and the “see now, buy now” concept. More and more designers and brands are taking this route during NYFW and it is definitely the right direction to go. Consumers want access now! Show attendees could literally shop the collection right after the runway show. I wanted everything. Great materials, gorgeous color palettes and lots of texture. Kudos, Olivia!
Phillip Plein
Future and Nicki Minaj were scheduled to be at this show and it was absolutely BANANAS getting in. We almost left, but managed to work our way up to the right person to show them our tickets to the show. The crowd was OOC – out of control! The show opened with a cabaret performance that was awesome! And then Future came out to perform. He continued as the models started walking the runway. I was telling my friends after the show that this show wins the “cool” award. I’ve never experienced anything like it before. There had to of been at least 2000 people at this fashion show. Phillip was incredibly humbled by the turnout and apologized for the chaos! It was a great show!
