The only thing that can get us excited about the end of summer is the beginning of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, when the city is teeming with fashionable excitement. So many shows to see and non-stop events to attend that it begs the question, “What to wear!?” But oops! We have been having squeezing in so much summer fun these past weeks, we are late to shop for what to wear to Fashion Week. Oh well, that’s why God invented NET-A-PORTER’s same day delivery service. We spotted a few trends for fall that we love: demure hues of cordovan, soft, rich leather, peplum tops, and brocade fabrics! They are all absolutely stylish, and will look as great at Avery Fisher at 9:00am as they will at the Circa Lounge at 9:00pm. For a complete schedule of shows, go to MERCEDES BENZ FASHION WEEK. Don’t forget to check back in with us in the coming weeks for our updates straight from Lincoln Center!
Definitely a new tote bag, big enough to fit everything, including a laptop. One of these will do very nicely.
