The dust has now settled after my first real fashion week, where I wasn’t there for the parties and/or taking photos of my friends at said parties… And while street style was never my objective, I did get snapped.
My outfits were barely a step up from what I would wear on a weekday, see first look: trackies! I definitely was not dressed or sponsored by anyone so, I wasn’t quite ready… Though, as awkward as I felt scooting past the paps, to be real: the Leo in me was stoked.
This diary documents my Monday through Wednesday outfits. By Thursday I was wearing a look my editor described as ‘bumish,’ (cheers, Chlo!) Read: no inclusion here. On Friday I was off site, and comfortable in a variation of Monday’s look.
MONDAY: I got home at 6am so trackies were a must. I did try to chic-it-up a bit with an oversized shirt and my Gucci loafers. With the amount of running around I did, this casual ensemble served me well.
Styling: Shirt: Topshop, Pants: Le Coq Sportif, Shoes: Gucci, Bag: Kenzo, Sunglasses: Sabre Eyewear.
Beauty: NARS Sheer Glow Foundation mixed with Moisturizer, Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cream Blush in Nectar, BECCA Cosmetics Shimmering Skin Perfector in Moonstone.
TUESDAY: Consider this look pre-planned, because I have worn it before, pre-fashion week. I love the low back of this slip with a printed t-shirt underneath, makes me feel cooler than I actually am. So do the combat boots.
Styling: Dress: 1920 Online, Shirt: vintage, Bag: Kenzo, Boots: MM6 Maison Martin Margeila FW/16
Beauty: NARS Sheer Glow Foundation mixed with Moisturizer, Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cream Blush in Nectar, BECCA Cosmetics Shimmering Skin Perfector in Moonstone, NARS Velvet lip glide in Mineshaft.
WEDNESDAY: 60% of this outfit was borrowed. Not from PR press racks but over the first three hours of Wednesday morning. The shirt? My roommate’s. The jacket? A friend’s, it’s men’s btw! And the vintage belt? Model, Peyton Knight’s, who I shot in the morning for this feature.
Styling: Jacket: AM Crew, Jeans: vintage, Shirt: Bad Dreems Merch, Belt: vintage, Bag: Kenzo, Shoes: Gucci, Sunglasses: Ray-Ban.
Beauty: NARS Sheer Glow Foundation mixed with Moisturizer, Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cream Blush in Nectar, Tom Ford Lip Contour Duo in 07 Private Escort.
Honorary mention to the Kenzo bag which accompanied me all 3 days – it holds more than you could imagine, and ensured I didn’t lose any important bits and pieces – due to handbag changes.
Big thanks to WHO WHAT WEAR for awarding me The Best Newcomer in their street style awards, The Streeties. S/O to Adam Katz Sinding of Le 21ème (who ALWAYS gets it right) for shooting me exclusively for TOMBOY Beauty.
