own fashion filled veins, then I guess this isn't your forte!
However, for all of my fashionistas and fashion lovers, New York Fashion Week is THE week to get your party on, hobnob with celebs, see the hottest fashion collections that are being showcased for next year's fashion trends and be ahead of the game for all style and trend alerts. Of course, every September we all look forward to the annual, worldwide debut of Fashion Night Out! It's always extremely exciting and a great opportunity to get discounts, cocktails, shop or just hang out with your girls (and the celebs that are always popping up) and getglammed up for absolutely free. Sounds like a win/win situation all around.
Here are some of the hottest events that are taking place around the city for Fashion Night Out, which is next Thursday, September 6. I'll be traipsing with my girls and hope to see you there. Have fun and here's to fashion!
Here's how we'll be bouncing around the city! I've even included train directions to make your travels easy and light!
