I had the awesome opportunity to enjoy the high energy of the Lincoln Center at New York Fashion Week this past weekend. Wishing that school didn't demand my time and that I could have spent the entire week in the city! Even though it was only two days, I was still able to get a glimpse of what takes place during the madness of Fashion Week. On the streets, I believe, is where fashion truly is. You see so many different styles, all of which are true to the person wearing them. By all of the press and photographers outside, street style seemed to be a lot more important than what was actually going on inside the tents. Here are the shots I was able to capture. Enjoy! Oh, and I was SO stoked to see Bill Cunningham!

It was an experience I will never forget.
