...WHEN I GET THE INVITATION TO A COVETED SHOW
The NYFW shows are really exciting. There is almost a pin drop silence before the runway lits up, then suddenly everybody is on their smartphones snapping away and live tweet/instagramming like nobody's business.

I get the kick out of seeing the luxurious outfits and accessories at NYFW, but sometimes ...

But What can I say, It is all good at Fashion Week. As a fashion lover, I am happy to be here! And even in my non-designer outfit, I feel like...
How fun that you were able to attend NYFW! I am not too personally crazy about it since I think it promotes a lifestyle that most Americans can't afford but it's fun to have a little escape now and then. And to people watch is just priceless!
