NYC Trend Report: What the Style Crowd Is Wearing Right Now
A couple of weeks ago, I took a fun work trip to NYC during Fashion Week. This time, my daughter Emily and son Jake tagged along! We grabbed coffee at Francesco’s in SoHo, went trend shopping on the Upper East Side, and ate lunch at Bergdorf’s (always). The style crowd was breezing in and out of our hotel day and night, and celebrities were roaming the streets. It was all very exciting — that’s the best week of the year there … for me at least!
One thing I love about traveling is people/outfit spotting, especially when something resonates. We noticed long, loose trench coats, slingbacks and ankle boots, classic button-ups, and super cool accessories. Since we had several fashion events to attend, this inspired our own careful outfit planning 😉 Between cocktail parties, brand meetings and hitting all our favorite shopping spots, there were many many outfit changes!
Today’s post brings you a trend report on what the NYC style crowd is wearing right now. A hint: classic pieces that are effortlessly put together in a relaxed way. After all, it’s the simple things that make the look: a beautiful sweater draped over your shoulders, clean lines on logo-free bags, thoughtful accessories, and great shoes. Hope you find some inspiration and a few fall pieces that you love. Cheers!
