It’s been years since I covered New York fashion week on the blog or for ELLE.com. Those fashion weeks when I was working / covering the shows for ELLE are some of my NY highlights for sure! I still get giddy thinking back on it… that I got to have that experience, to interview the designers and visit them in their showrooms and see the collections walk down the runways is really special. The energy in the room as the lights come on and the first model walks out… is just!!
I love keeping up to date with my favorite designers and watching the runway collections of the brands I’m the most excited about. New York Fashion Week is in full swing and while we’re seeing the pieces a season ahead (September is when the designers show their spring collections) I always find it fun to pull inspiration for the current season from the runway. It’s also a great way to make thoughtful purchases right now. I love seeing what the trends will be the following season and thinking about how I might want to incorporate those looks.
Khaite has become one of my absolute favorite brands for styling inspiration in the past few years. It’s a brand that gives me my dose of New York city edge. And also, I’ve been at a point of style evolution myself and craving more sophisticated, timeless pieces… but again, still with that NY downtown cool vibe. But I have found myself looking to Khaite first each season when thinking about any bag, shoe or major investment purchases.
Their show was so good on Sunday –– if you missed, it’s a must watch . Gave me my dose of NYFW I was craving!
