Glamazons,
It is the start of New York Fashion Week and I couldn’t be more excited! Attending a fashion show is always a memorable occasion but it can be super nerve-racking, especially when tasked with deciding what to wear.
Because you’ll be running from show to show, going backstage and standing on your feet for hours at a time, you want a look that is comfortable and functional. But you also want a look that showcases your personal style and sets you apart from the crowd. I mean, who doesn’t want to get snapped by a photog’s lens and land on a coveted Street Style list? #LifeGoals
But how do you choose an outfit that makes sense for your hectic schedule but is still Street Style-worthy? The key is to make sure you have the essentials: a statement piece, quirky accessories, layered add-ons for unpredictable temperatures, and a stylish yet practical bag to carry your phone, tablet, notebook, digital camera, chargers and beauty must-haves (you know, to keep you looking snatched.)
Need glamspiration? Here are four looks to help you get started:
1. A Printed Midi Skirt
You can easily make a statement by rocking a printed midi skirt. Midi skirts are pretty much the best length for transitioning between seasons. Incorporating prints is a great way to ensure that all eyes are on you as you make your way through the venues. Pair the skirt with neutral shades, grab a professional camera to catch all the swoon-worthy looks as they parade down the runway and you’re good to go!

2. A Slogan Sweatshirt
I am obsessed with sweatshirts right now and they are the perfect Fashion Week piece. Comfortable yet trendy, they make a ‘cool girl’ impression without trying too hard. Dress up your sweatshirt by pairing it with an edgy leather skirt, pointy-toe heels and a studded clutch.

3. Cool Statement Accessories
When dressing for Fashion Week, you want to pick pieces that you wouldn’t wear everyday so the quirkier your accessories, the better. I love metallic brogues paired with slouchy boyfriend jeans and statement clutch for a retro ’80s vibe. An on-trend striped blazer takes this look to the next level!

4. A Bright Jumpsuit
Jumpsuits will always hold a special place in my heart. They are flattering and give effortless style in one easy piece. Go for two trends in one with a bold culotte jumpsuit. Pair it with block heels for added stability. Pack facial cleansing wipes and lip balm to keep your face fresh for hours.
