Today is the first day of Mercedes-Benz Fashion week (also known as Fashion Weak, Style Daze or When Can I Take These Damn Shoes Off? Week). Because technology is super cool, live streaming the shows has been all the rage. This year, you can watch all of the MBFW Fall 2013 shows RIGHT HERE on ChiCityFashion.
Like I mentioned yesterday on Twitter, I’m pretty sick of hearing about “fashion week” (even though it hasn’t started yet). Mostly because the words are way overused, especially by the people that say are going but actually have no purpose of being there. But let’s excuse my rant for the time being and break down the typical “fashion week survival guide” or “NYFW necessities” post. Because this isn’t your ordinary fashion week essentials feature…this really separates the fashion WEAK from fashion week. Get what I’m saying?
When it comes to fashion, there’s always an “it.” It Bag (currently: anything Celine), It Girl (currently: Cara Delevingne…at least in my eyes), and regardless of your interest in fashion, It App (was Instagram…until now).
My infatuation with weird t-shirts has always been present (i.e. The Ultimate Throwback Thursday) so seeing these ironic “fake” designer tees and sweatshirts on the rise makes me one happy girl.
For me, it just started with a little Giraunchy and now I’m pretty much addicted to these things.
18 degrees? No problem. Let me just throw on some thin gloves and a lightweight coat. And of course it makes sense to wear lots of metal in these temperatures. Yeah, this sounds about right.
