Why I’m Skipping NYFW This Year

If you guys aren’t living under a rock then you probably know that it’s officially New York Fashion Week and every instagrammer/blogger is either attending or complaining about the FOMO they are having because they aren’t there. Me on the other hand? Neither.

I know it sounds weird because after all this is my job but I thought I’d shed some light on why I decided to skip NYFW this year altogether. To be honest, I’ve been to NYFW a handful of times and while yes I did have a blast, I am not quite sure I’m meant for all the hustle and bustle that is NYC and Fashion Week at once.

Fashion Week from the photos may look like glamour and all but let me tell you — it is FAR from it in reality. You literally don’t have time (or most likely just forget) to eat, think and just BE a normal human being. On top of all that, but I truly just don’t think you guys want to see specific NYFW coverage. Literally every person on Instagram is attending NYFW and sharing the exact same thing so why do I want to saturate your social media feeds with something you’ve probably already seen 10 times already? I want to give you guys my normal everyday fashion and lifestyle content that I know you won’t be able to get elsewhere and that is what I am most passionate about in the end anyways.

Yes, I will miss being in NYC this fashion week, but I will probably go back another season. I’m always so honored and thankful for everything I’m invited to during fashion week. However, I’m happy with my decision to sit this one out AND I’m even more excited to announce that I’ll actually be in Paris instead with a brand I love to death! I’d pick Paris over NYC any day, shhhh 😉

Love you guys!
