So I’ve lived in New York for about three years now and all this time I have never taken part in any fashion activities so this year I figured I should at least see what all the hubbub is about. I should mention that it helps that I also have a contact at IMG who got me into fashion shows. Lesson here kids: it’s never what you know, it’s who you know. Don’t stay in school, just learn how to mingle and fake a degree from an Ivy League or at least FIT.

- Way to be more fashionable: spend less on food, more on accessories.
- I need to wear more eyeliner.
- Wearing and walking in high heels for longer than 3 hours at a time is not only a skill but an athletic feat.
- Rachel Zoe was right (as always): pairing a bomber jacket with anything instantly makes you chic–it was my saving grace for all the events I went to (which I’ll discuss later)
- The fashion world is freakishly self-involved which makes me want to run away from it and be a part of it at the same time.
- I need about 10 more pairs of shoes, 2 gold necklaces, 6 dresses and anything metallic, in that order.
- I have confirmation that high heels make any outfit sexier.
- Most male models are incapable of walking down a runway.
- Actual fashion show run time: 10 minutes.
- I love fashion.
