... days 7 & 8

As the week came to an end, it was bittersweet because it was exactly 1 year ago that I had my first real NYFW experience as a volunteer.  It opened up my eyes to a career that I loved and the opportunity that was given to me when I had zero experience.

Now that I'm back at it again in the e-commerce world, it makes me covet my new career that much more.

Days 7 & 8 were days of non-stop beauty and elegance with brands that I love and adore.  Here are snaps of those brands that I love.

Now that the Spring 2014 Fashion Weeks have kicked off across the world, I wanted to take time to recap the first Fashion Week of the Spring 2014 season in New York City.  It came and went by so quickly in a blink of an eye.  Unfortunately this year, I was not able to participate in SS 2014 at NYMBFW, but it didn't stop me from oogling at the many beautiful pieces that graced the runways in NYC.

Here's a recap of some of my favorites that hit the runway at the SS '14 shows in NYC during Days 1-3.
