College Fashion Week Recap

Hi babes!

I am back from one of the best events EVER. College Fashion Week was AMAZING.

So, if you read my first post prior to the event, you should know all the little deets of the show.

You probably know from all of the Snapchats that I decided to bring my mom and godmother. I’m so happy they were able to come and see a fun day in the life of a blogger! It’s always tricky to explain just how much work a blogger really does, so it was awesome for them to see me at work! And they LOVED it!

We left my house early in the morning for our trip to NYC. We decided to just go for the day because the Ravens played today and we couldn’t miss that!

So, we arrived in the city around 1:00pm. I wanted to take them to Gallow Green! Gallow Green is an amazing rooftop restaurant. Perfect for brunch.

Luckily we were only a 5 minute walk to the event! Around 5:30 we made our way to the show.

There was a line of probably 200+ girls waiting eagerly to get inside! Luckily we had VIP, so we didn’t have to wait.

The venue was absolutely breathtaking. Everything was crisp and white (which you know I love)

The event was filled with so many amazing people, sponsors, and snacks!

My favorite part of the show was that all of the models were REAL college girls. Most of them have never modeled before, so this was a huge opportunity for them. The pieces of each show were sooo cute! They were geared towards college aged girls!

One trend I did notice were lots of hats and leather backpacks! I’m obsessed with the leather backpack look! Especially because I’m so over big purses.

We were also able to get TONS of goodies from sponsors!

The BEST part of the show though was seeing my name on the VIP seat. Yes, small joys.. I know. It is an amazing feeling seeing your name on something that you have worked very hard for!
