Well, yesterday was a pretty fun day! We started by sleeping in, which was extremely nice. I think I got up at like 11 and I swear I could've slept till 1, SO exhausted from basically two nights without decent sleep. At noon, Tieka, Annie and I trekked up to Central Park to attend the Renegade Blogger Meet Up. It was really great. I'd never been to Central Park before, and it's a very lovely place. Such a solace from the enormous city surrounding it. I would probably spend a lot of time there if I lived in New York. I bet it would be nice to be around nature, or some semblance of it, when you're usually surrounded by metal, glass, and concrete. I have lots of pictures from the meet up, but I'm going to post them later since I don't have time to sift through them all right now.

In the afternoon I went over to Lincoln Center which is where the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week tents are. I wandered around all the lookie-loos who were mingling near the entrance to the tents and got my picture taken a couple times. It's pretty fun going there and seeing all the fashion week shenanigans.
This outfit is from the evening, when Tieka and I went out for Fashions Night Out. First we headed over to Brooklyn to see Market Publique's pop up shop. I would've loved to grab some amazing vintage goodies, but unfortunately my budget for any sort of shopping is $0. After that we tried to find the Teen Vogue block party, which was supposed to be on Bleecker St.(?) but we walked the entire length of Bleecker and didn't find it. Kind of disappointed. Meh. So we ended up going back to the hotel and were moping for a sec about how FNO wasn't really all that fun and decided to just grab something to eat and come back and chill.
We went out to find a place to eat and oh my goodness! We ended up finding a bunch of FNO activities right near our hotel! We went to DVF, Marc Jacobs, Maybelline, Tory Burch, and Anna Wintour walked right by us at Theory. So crazy! Once we had our fill of FNO excitement, we went to that same Mexican restaurant that Annie and I went to on the first night. We got some absolutely amaaaazing strawberry daiquiris and munched on tacos and quesadillas. It hit the spot. A perfect ending to a ridiculously crazy day in the city. I just realized you guys probably never see me dressed up for any reason. Well, here I am a little bit jazzed up, I suppose. It was fun to be all sparkly and gold for a night out in the big city.

omg this is an amazing outfit, I've been looking for something to wear out at night and this will be my inspiration

I love your outfit and your clothes, but your roots are EEEEEEEK! Get that hair dyed again lady otherwise, what will we do with you?! Also, I would like to know more about your mom, cause in your posts you mention your dad, and bother but your mom, not so much. DOes she not live with you?
^^^^ wow. who elected you queen of other people's hair?
and way to ask completely inappropriate questions that are really none of your business.
I LIKE YOUR ROOTS.
:)
do what YOU want.
you look gorgeous. you ARE gorgeous.
as far as I'm concerned, you could dye your hair eggplant and fuschia and still be the most chic girl in the country.
i love this outfit!
you're adorable!!
Love your gold purse. Gosh :)
Hope you like my post on jumpsuits and follow my blog too!

You look gorgeous. I love this entire outfit. I have always wanted to wear a top that is this color - you pull it off so well. And your hair looks SO good, as always :) Dont worry about that person who said the thing about your roots. What a joke. I think it looks fantastic. So glad that you girls had so much fun!! x
you look so lovely! your hair is incredible an thick - wish mine was too!

Ah, you are all so dramatic! I was just telling Elizabeth here the truth, I love her hair, it's big and curly and just plain lovely, but your roots being black and the rest of your hair red doesn't look that great. NO, I'm not saying her hair's all ugly or whatnot. "Who elected me queen of hair?" <-- REALLY? REALLY? Apparently some people can interpret a comment real differently, it's called an opinion. And, I was just asking about her Mom because, well I noticed that while she does talk about her not as often and it seems like she's faraway or something.
^^That is called curiosity, and HEY she doesn't have to answer! In fact she can tell me to rot in some bottomless pit for offending her (not intentionally of course) in any way. Anyway, enough of this blasphemy, I'm sorry to ruin your comments page with this, but I felt as if I had to explain myself which is a pity really. I'm sorry if I offended you and any of your oh-so-caring readers. I did not mean to. And, for the record: I love your blog, it serves as inspiration. And your clothes, and your personality seems to just stick out which is amazing. So, kudos to you Ms. Elizabeth. ::)
Okay, no comment-drama here, folks. For the record, I love my black roots, so I'm sorry if you don't like it. It's not on your head. I'm probably going to dye my hair half red, half black ombre soon, so if you're not a fan of the red/black, oh well! If you want to send me the $100 it costs to fix my roots, by all means! I can't afford it. And I do mention my Mom a lot on here. I just published a whole post of something she wrote.
I don't mean to sound defensive, but I'm really not a fan of comment drama on my blog. Hope this will clear things up! And thanks to everyone who comes, reads, and comments! I love all you guys.
Lovely skirt!
you look so great all dressed up!
