Fashion Week Recap: Day One, 18 Hours

September 6, 2023

Fashion Week, Day One. In a nutshell, here’s what that entailed: 18 hours, four large coffees, three runway shows, two pairs of shoes and a handful of subway transfers. In other words, it was a busy whirlwind of meetings, fashion shows, public transportation and caffeine runs.

Here’s a recap of Day One:

8:50 a.m. Hop on the train to head uptown. My first show of the season is Nicholas K, which is in… oh, 10 minutes. I’m late, but these things never start on time anyway. I’m good.

Summer-to-Fall: Four Trends to Try

August 22, 2023

I’ve been putting in my fair share of style hunting/inspiration hoarding on Pinterest this week — partially due to Fashion Week sneaking around the corner (as if I needed an excuse). In doing so, I remembered a slideshow I created on celebrity-inspired style for Glam.com that I haven’t yet shared with you.

With summer quickly fading into fall, it’s time to up the ante on your laid-back look. (I’m doing the same!) And who better to inspire than Hollywood’s A-list crowd?

1. Angular Cuts: A leather cap and Zara culottes keep this look adventurous, yet on-point (ahem). / 2. A daring crop top: A crop-top adds gives edge to a printed pencil skirt and pointed-toe pumps. / 3. Double denim: Chambray and boyfriend-style cutt-offs? Always a “do” in my book. / 4. An all-back ensemble: Black-on-black looks chic and sleek — especially when completing the look with a functional carry-all and patent ankle booties.
