NYFW: What I Wore, Day One!

So, I feel like I have to say this before I post any NYFW outfits:

I gave myself, like, four minutes to shop and plan for Fashion Week.

Literally, I booked my plane ticket less than a week before my first show was scheduled to begin, and I wound up being really busy at work getting everything tied up before leaving for the airport. Most seasons, I start thinking about Fashion Week a month or two beforehand, so I have enough time to pick up new clothes if I need them and put some serious planning into what I'm going to wear.

This year, I was throwing stuff into my suitcase ten minutes before leaving for the airport.

And yet... even at seven months pregnant, I swore I was going to make it work! I was just moaning last week about how I'd bought these white maternity jeans and never had a chance to wear them, so I threw them in. This pale Celine bag (the one I found at T.J. Maxx!) is always a fashion week staple, and I picked up this Zara coat ON CLEARANCE the day before I left.

So, with no time to prepare, a Houston-based wardrobe that's totally different from NYC weather and being seven months pregnant... I'd say I didn't do too badly!

(And, I was so excited -- I got named by the Huffington Post and Stylist as being one of the best dressed at Day One of NYFW! At seven months pregnant! My little ego may explode if we're not careful...)

ASOS Elgin Skinny jeans (similar non-maternity style here); BCBG top; Zara coat (similar here); Celine bag (a super cute similar one by Alexander Wang here); Ann Taylor necklace; Bracelets: Hermes, Tiffany & Company, Gilt; Rings: Catbird, Dogeared and Claire's.
