my NYFW diary: september 7.
today was a whirlwind in the best possible way. my morning started out with a protein shake and getting to meet emmitt smith on my flight. i didn't think it was possible, but he is even more of a stud muffin in person. i arrived in nyc this afternoon, unpacked, and headed out for a run on the hudson river, listening to lady antebellum and whatever else my ipod shuffled. the energy is insane here. so many new people met today, so many new places discovered...i hit up topsop today and left with nothing. shocked. trying to walk to the grocery store after that was a mistake, as i was utterly distracted by the soho jewelry street vendors. after some bargaining, i purchased a beautiful and unique african statement necklace. my trek ended at my intended destination, trader joes, where i could have spent hours, only to be limited by the vogue fashion show start time. amongst my array of groceries, i returned home with a pound of a dark chocolate bar (my best purchase, by far). i made it just in time to run up to the apartment, grab my camera, and go to the fashion night out vogue show! it was stunning. i had the opportunity to bump into gisele being interviewed and anna wintour discussing the show. besides getting some great street style photos of some of the models and attenders (and spotting victoria's secret model behati prinsloo), i had the chance to meet and talk with hanneli mustaparta (my favorite blogger!). from my precious taxi driver to the doorman at the apartment, today was filled with joyful people, fascinating stories, and new experiences. the fashionable chaos has just begun. until tomorrow...
