With New York Fashion Week in full swing, it’s important to always be prepared for every show, presentation, and party. As a Fashion Blogger, being prepared means so much more than wearing the perfect outfit. It means packing all the right stuff to not only look the part, but cover every stylish moment like a pro.
Here’s What You’ll Need:
Technology: Nowadays every great fashion icon must constantly be plugged into the latest technology so it’s super important to bring along your phone, tablet, or any other device to live tweet and share fab photos. Whatever you do, don’t forget to bring along all chargers. With the volume of tweeting, instagraming, and sharing, your phone will probably run out of batteries in 1-2 hours. Luckily, most lounges have charging stations and Sansung even sponsored a bunch of charging stations around Lincoln Center this season for a quick charge in between shows. Though you will be taking a lot of pictures with your phone or tablet, I highly recommend also bringing along a high res camera to capture better quality photos. Be sure to pack your camera charger too.
Uppers: Caffeine is a vital part of your survival at Fashion Week. Instead of survival of the fittest, it’s survival of the most caffeinated. Massive amounts of Diet Coke, Coffee, and Red Bull will allow you to stay at an after party until 4 a.m. and wake up to flawlessly cover a 9 a.m. show. Since I’m all about inspiration, I also like to carry around inspirational messages to myself.
Personal Care: When you’re running around the city to attend events with some of the most fashionable and beautiful people in the world, you’ll always want to look your best. Therefore, I never leave my apartment without a mirror and brush along with makeup and nail polish for any necessary touch ups throughout the day. Gum is also great to have with you.
Business Cards: Another thing never to forget is your business cards. I’m already out and need to order more ASAP.
