I’ll bring one watch, 2 necklaces, a bracelet or two, and a couple of earrings to choose from. I try to keep it light incase something catches my eye to add to my collection during my travels.

Getting Ready For Fashion Week in NYC

Here’s a sneak peak into my week :)

I’ll be kicking of New York Fashion Week (NYFW) with the launch of Midtown’s newest luxury addition, LASIO STUDIOS.

After all, going to the salon is one of my all time favorite bi-weekly rituals and I absolutely LOVE their Hypersilk Advanced Serum and Hypersilk Revitalizing Mask!. They will be celebrating their move from the East Village to their new Midtown location, 39 West 38th Street, NYC with an exclusive red carpet grand opening.  

2013 New York Pet Fashion Show presented by Tropiclean (Formerly known as the Pre-Westminster Fashion Show)

This is one of the cutest events of the season and A Celebration Of Love for Animal Rescue with Animal Haven Shelter of NYC, held each year before the start of the Westminster Dog Show. Here’s a few pictures from last year…

This year they will be featuring a Roaring 20’s theme and a superb evening with three amazing runway fashion shows by renowned fashion designer & our Creative Director Ada Nieves, plus many other Top National Pet designers from across the country. Visit www.NYPetFashionShow.com for more details.

jlehsik Fall 2013 Fashion Presentation Runway Show

Always taking its vision a step further, jlehsiek takes inspiration from the 18^th Century European ‘salon,’ for their 2013 show. Commonly associated with French literary and philosophical movements of the 17th and 18th centuries, salons would feature refined discussions about popular culture, literature and philosophy.  Salons also served as schools of higher learning for French women of the era, as many were not seeking schooling to build toward careers; these environments provided an opportunity for women of class to demonstrate their intellectual prowess and to learn from one another. Jlehsiek, will reconstruct the concept of a modern day salon within the context of Caribbean lifestyle and architecture. In addition to a breath-taking collection by jlehsiek, guests will be privy to images of Trinidad and Tobago folklore, poetry, stories, and fashion influences to celebrate the rise of the independent nation of Trinidad and Tobago, the nation of origin for designer Keishel Williams.  For a peek at selected looks from past collections, visit www.jlehsiek.com.

Emerge! Runway Fashion Show

It is a catalyst of providing a platform and a strong backdrop for emerging designers, and was created and produced by Dionne Williams of D. Williams Public Relations Group. Hair design will be provided by Bennett Career Institute and make-up being provided by Lamik Cosmetics.

Atlantic Audi presents an “Eye For Fashion and a Heart of Compassion”

The Runway Charity Benefit Fashion Show to benefit families on Long Island affected by Hurricane Sandy.  Eye for Fashion and a Heart of Compassion runway show will be a tribute to the Fashion Industry. This wonderful philanthropic event is designed to give back and empower minds and lives through fashion and compassion while showcasing the work of an emerging designer. The events mission, now in its second year is to spread compassion, give hope and encouragement.

And I’ll still be in the office for work, taking meetings, doing interviews, training for my upcoming half marathon in 2 weeks, and getting ready for an event that I’ll be the official media sponsor for! I love busy weeks like this, and it all starts tomorrow! Follow me @agirltravels on twitter and instagram for updates.
