New York Fashion Week starts tomorrow, and I have to tell you, there’s nothing I love more than being able to ‘cover’ them from Style.com on my computer (and now from my iPhone!). I always felt like a little bit of a jerk when I would complain about the impending show week (when I was an editor), but I think what most people don’t realize is that it’s a crazy week that never seems to end. You’re shuffled between shows from morning until night (and I mean late night) and you’re waiting for shows to start about 80% of that day. (Plus trying to somehow get work done in the office throughout all of this.) And of course, most shows aren’t life changing (or even inspirational), but when you get that handful that DO, it makes it all worth it!
