NYFW Fall 2019 Recap – A Goodbye to SS 2020 and Cellphones

From cell phone lock up to only showing current collections, fashion week has finally started to take a turn for the better. This year’s NYFW Fall 2019 recap will include everything I loved to why I agree with fashion week sans cellphones. I’ll also explain why I’m saying goodbye to SS 2020. A Goodbye to SS 2020 and Cellphones Catching up to the social media, iPhone-as-an-appendage-of-the-body era has been pretty disruptive in all industries across the board. With fast fashion immediately knocking off designs that aren’t set to arrive until six months later, to runway shows where everyone has their…

How I Prep for NYFW + How To Attend As A Blogger

Yes, you read that right. New York Fashion Week is right around the corner, officially beginning Friday, September 6th. Which means prep for NYFW starts now (actually, officially last week for me, by the time you see this post). The two most important things to me are: number one being able to attend the shows I want to cover and number two having outfits I’m both proud of and comfortable in. Check out my past New York Fashion Week coverage. Today I’m going to share a general overview of how I prep for NYFW and how to attend as a…

NYFW FW 2019 Recap and Coverage

NYFW FW 2019 Recap he first show I attended was the Indonesian Diversity Runway show. This consisted of four designers showing their lines, 2Madison Avenue, Alleira Batik, Dian Pelangi and Itang Yunasz. What I love about seeing these Indonesian designers is that I’m able to take inspiration from their culture and apply it to my wardrobe. Adding items that I may have not even thought about adding prior to seeing the show. Dian Pelangi’s looks were by far my favorite. The layering with the belts and vintage sunnies stole the show for me. Fun fact: I like presentations better than runway shows… id I…

Fall Trends With Bloomingdale’s + a Recap of the Fashion Show!

This is a bit overdue, but the weather has barely changed over and it’s still technically Summer for two more days. So, I guess I’m not too far behind with this post! Anyway, I think it’s a fine time to talk about Fall and reminisce about fashion week, don’t you? New York City is filled with an energy that I love during fashion week. This year I wanted to bring this energy to Westchester by bringing fashion week to those of us in my home county! I teamed up with Bloomingdale’s White Plains and hosted their Fall runway show with a…

Bringing NYFW to Westchester County with Bloomingdale’s White Plains!

Since I’ve spent my whole waking life in Westchester County, it’s crazy I didn’t decide to do this sooner! This Saturday, September 8th, I’m hosting the Bloomingdale’s White Plains fashion show. Following the runway show, there will be a mix and mingle of local entrepreneurs, business owners and various professionals, influencers, and students! I’ve been so fortunate that I can attend events in New York City through my blog. I’ve met so many amazing people at these events, but the problem is they are so rarely, if ever, in Westchester. Through this event, I’m hoping to connect the influential community…

Backstage with Aveda for Tibi NYFW Runway

Images provided by Aveda unless noted otherwise. This fashion week I wanted to show you events and shows that I felt were a little different and less plastered in your face through Instagram stories. As much as I love the exhilaration of a good runway show, I definitely enjoy presentations more. They offer a much more intimate experience with the new collection and you also get a better viewing of what’s to come. On the runway, everything goes by you super quick and I end up looking at the collections online after. What I found to be even more intimate…
