After years of being away I’ve finally made it back to New York Fashion Week! Planning for a much-anticipated trip, like this one, can be tough. I am such a last minute packer. I tend to change my mind a lot when it comes to deciding what to wear in my day-to-day, I can't plan my outfit the night before to save time in the morning, let alone deciding what to wear each day for a week long trip and one as big as Fashion Week.
