We're in the midst of yet another season at New York Fashion Week, and I'm again in complete awe that this has somehow become my life. It still feels surreal to grab a hold of my credentials and walk into the tents and be surrounded by people I have admired for years, even though my name has been on the masthead at Marie Claire for the last two years. There are moments that I don't feel like I belong there, and there are moments where I'm certainly made to feel like I don't belong there. Continue...
I try to remember why I am there, though: to work, to report, to observe, and to have fun - and be grateful that I have the privilege of being there at all. It's hard not to get caught up in the politics and circus of getting dressed to head to shows, but being that I don't have Valentino Rockstuds or a Celine bag to tote around (though I'd gladly accept gifts of either), I'm choosing to stick to what I know: lots of black, lots of leather, and pops of color and pattern to have fun with.

ReplyDeleteOk so... not like I need any more boots, but I think you just sold me on these ones.
ReplyDeleteI just got those boots! I can't wait to rock mine! I was thinking of wearing it with a coated skirt. I love this entire look including that necklace.
ReplyDeleteYou know I love that leopard print jacket. This is such a fun and cute look. I'm bummed I haven't seen you at Lincoln center yet nevertheless you look awesome.
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing! I love that necklace! Do you know, I only started reading Marie Claire because of you? You hardly ever see plus size girls in fashion, and it's so awesome to see you keep climbing up that ladder. Don't let the haters get you down, you have an army of plus size fashionistas rooting for you and looking up to you!

ReplyDeleteThere is nothing I don't like about this outfit! You rock it!
ReplyDeleteI love that there is a full-figured fashion week, and I love that plus size fashion writers and bloggers attend NYFW to help connect plus size women with what's walking the runway. It makes the fashions feel more accessible, so thank you! Anyways, I love the mix of rocker edge and femininity in this look. That rainbow pastel necklace must be mine!
