New York Fashion Week Day 1 was all about hitting the ground running. Battling humidity and jet lag I opted for this long sleeve print mini dress which I knew I would be able to wear in the Winter with tights too.

Co-Ords as most of my friends on here know I’m obsessed with! I channelled all the Cher from Clueless vibes in this ensemble and a look which is easy to come across in various colours too!

Suit co-ords set :here from Asos ( other colours available) Note: blazer was true to size but for the shorts I went to the Zip Yard on South Ann Street who added two panels either side as they were a small fit.
Bag: Mango (old) similar below
Sunglasses: Marks & Spencer (sale find)
Day 4: The Tommy Hilfiger Show
For Day four I opted for a statement red jumpsuit I found a just few hours before the Tommy Hilfiger show. I was cutting it tight time wise but it was meant to be! Its a Calvin Klein jumpsuit where I would be a U.S 16 normally, but this was quite stretchy so I took the size 14 as there were only a few sizes left in store. Overall the Calvin Klein area totally took me by surprise as to the size options they had with plenty of size 18’s and 3XL and curve friendly sizes so something to look into if you’re visiting New York. 🙂 Online sadly the size selection doesn’t appear as strong as in store but I’ve link options below.
Details:
Jumpsuit: Calvin Klein in Macys. I found one option here from Dillards which ships worldwide and on Amazon fashion here in 3 different colours
Handbag: Savida here
Day 5
Yellow is a huge trend for this season, a colour that isn’t the easiest to wear but I loved this print combination and how easy it was to style!
Details:
Dress: here sizes 6-18 and similar here in sizes 16-28
Bag: here
Shoes: here ( highly recommended show purchase especially for block heel fans!)
The Christian Siriano Show
Christian Siriano show day is up with with Christmas for me. It’s my favourite day of the year! I was lucky to have found a Siriano dress to wear via a friend but you can also find it on RentTheRunway and various other websites if you type in ” Christian Siriano turquoise frill dress” into Google. You call also email directly to The Curated store in New York founded by Christian where they will literally make any dress of his you require in absolutely any size.
Details:
Dress: Christian Siriano
Bag: Old
Shoes: Dune London here
Day 6
My final NYFW day mainly consisted of meetings and a few fashion presentations/shows. So I needed something that I could get around the city in easily and still feel dressed! This is another midi dress find you can easily belt if you wish. You’ll see plenty of print this season particular with snake print influences so this dress ticked a number of boxes for me.
Details
Dress: Here sizes 8-18
Shoes: Dorothy Perkins (old)
Bag: Savida (old)
So thats all my New York Fashion updates for the moment my friends. And I can’t end this post without a special thanks to my airline sponsor for NYFW, Aer Lingus who made the travel part of my trip stress free! They have a brilliant September seat sale on all this month too ( including U.S.A flights) for those interested. Big loves to you all, Lou xx
