NYFW Day (-)1: Balancing Act

It's not even Fashion Week yet and the excitement is overflowing! I spent yesterday attending the IFB Conference in-between classes, where I caught up with Natalie, who was one of the awesome panel members speaking that evening along with Aimee, Coco, Annie, Kristina and Ari.  After IFB, whilst shooting our outfit shots for the day, Nat and I were snapped for street style for Vogue Spain! Ahh! The photographer was a super cool dude, I'll be sure to post some shots for you guys!

After IFB was a brief visit to The Lucky FABB Conference, which was always super fun and enriching, after which I had to head back downtown for my Fashion History class at Parsons. Unlike last season, balancing classes with fashion week excitement has been rather tricky. My class schedule is more open this year, so I can't bring myself to just skip out on my classes because it's less of a stress than it was back in February. However, it makes me miss out on a lot of events still. I wish I could say I can keep up with the pack and go to every event I'm invited to, but school comes first for me, and I take my education seriously (omg nerd alert...). It's been something I've had to learn to balance this past year, but I'm getting better at it, because I know in the end, it's going to make the future that much brighter.
