Good Morning! Oh my gosh this week might be the most exciting week ever for me! NYFW is finally here and I’m leaving tomorrow! WHAT!?! Going to Fashion Week has always been a dream of mine and now after one year of blogging I’m heading there with some amazing blogger friends and I truly can’t wait! Today I’m going to be sharing some NYFW Packing Essentials or just essentials you should have while going to New York!

This is my third year in a row going to New York.  By now I have a pretty clear idea of some of the areas and I definitely have some favorite spots.  I’ve also quickly learned that looking cute and being comfortable is totally a thing here and truly for the sake of your feet it’s a total must.  Let’s jump right into what I’m going to be taking!

SHOES

I will be taking some heels but sneakers and flats will be my best friend.  The first time I went to New York during their fall time and I wore heeled booties the entire time.  Seriously not my finest moment.  Needless to say, I went shopping for some flat boots because I felt like I was going to collapse (lesson learned).  Here are some of the shoes I will be taking!

BAND AIDS

Coming from the big lonestar state you can bet that this girl doesn’t have to walk to many destinations.  No matter how comfortable the shoes I’ve worn in the past were I definitely will be packing some band aids.  I will be grateful and I’m so will my feet.

LIGHT JACKET

This might not apply just yet because it’s summer weather everywhere but in New York you never know.  I’ve gotten there where they are just having some mild weather and a cool night but for a Texas girl it feels a bit chilly.  I’m definitely taking a leather jacket because they are lighter and I think perfect for NYFW.

SNACKS

My schedule is jam packed and I’m still working out some kinks in it.  One thing I know for sure is I have NO idea when this girl will be eating.  My roommates and I have decided to all bring different snacks so that we can help each other when we are attending shows, rooms, and events.  Here are some of my favs!

CAMERA

I’m pretty sure this goes without saying but in case you forget or are so busy planning outfits that everything else kind of goes out the window DON’T FORGET YOUR CAMERA! I started having serious panic attacks because I started realizing I had included pretty much everything on my list except my camera.  Am I even a life & style blogger if I don’t have my camera on me!?

PORTABLE CHARGER

Another big one to remember is bring a portable charger! So far, my schedule is looking like I’m only going to my room to sleep and wake up and rush back out.  My phone will be used for Snapchat, Instagram Stories, and pictures so bringing this a huge must! My mentor gifted me a super adorable one so I will be taking that but here are some other great choices!

Now I’m rushing off to pack all these essentials before I forget! If you guys have any suggestions of anything please leave them below! Friday’s post will be more on the outfits and clothes I’m taking for NYFW!

XOXO,
