Day 1 of NYFW is over and I am pooped. In keeping with my tradition of past NYFW, I will keep it short and sweet and show my outfit as well as list what I did.
- Woke up at 6:19am (always has to be odd number for me)
- did a total of 25 crunches and 10 push ups
- showered, did hair, makeup and dressed
- called an uber to take me to Sarabeth’s on 40 Central Ave S to meet Diana from Eloquii to discuss the DC event
- because of the epic snow they received the previous day, traffic was INSANE
- was extremely impatient in my Uber as it took over an hour to get from Harlem to location
- had a delicious breakfast and chatted with Diana
- Carisa of Legally Charming Style met me at Sarabeth’s to cab it to the Dan Liu show
- took forever yet again to get to Skylight and MISSED the Dan Liu show
- snapped a few pics at Skylight, grabbed a complimentary coffee and then back in an Uber
- waited outside in the polar vortex cold but no Uber to be found
- said F it and hailed a cab
- arrived at Russian Tea Room around 11:05 for the Kate Spade presentation
- geeked out with Carisa on the decor of the Russian Tea Room
- went upstairs and geeked out some more about the Kate Spade collection. (see previous post)
- did my first Instagram live
- did a Facebook live ( follow me!!!)
- reluctantly left Russian Tea Room and headed to Stylinity style soiree with Veronica Webb
- listened and learned a ton from supermodel Veronica Webb
- hunger pains set in and Carisa and I walked to EATaly because we wanted ALL the carbs
- ate all the carbs
- got sleepy
- tried to get a cab but no luck since rush hour commenced
- saw and H&M and decided to go inside (for warmth, I swear…. heehee)
- purchased a super cute dress for under $20 bucks
- finally got an Uber to head back to Harlem
- had an unbelievably amazing conversation with Uber drive about pan africanism, Haiti, etc
- over an hour later arrived at Monroe’s
- have been on couch ever since
- smile at how successful Day 1 of NYFW was and how cute my outfit turned out
And then there is tomorrow. On the agenda:
Paul Andrew Presentation at 10am; Jill Stuart presentation at 11am; the beau and his daughter arrive at 12; have lunch; change for evening shows; crash!
hair: Alisa of CosmoCrush
The coat is classically adorable.
