You guys probably know how much I like backstage coverage. It\u2019s an opportunity to rub elbows with the best of the best. Like, literally. It\u2019s tight up in here!<\/span><\/p>\n

This season I\u2019m back at it with some good ol\u2019 Public School lovin\u2019. Last season, Public School sat out NYFW and left us feeling a little bit depressed inside. By us, I mean me and my NYFW alter-ego buddy-friend blogger soul who ravages on anything pretty and cool. Pretty cool.<\/span><\/p>\n

I also covered an entire day of Nolcha shows this season in partnership with PocketLive.TV<\/a>. Katya from StyleSprinter and I literally spent 12 hours backstage interviewing designers, hairstylists, and makeup artists. In the midst of all that we also streamed all the shows directly from the press pit. We then tried to recreate a look we saw backstage (glitter eyebrows) in our recap over the weekend. It was so fun that we’re actually planning a little live series for you guys!<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, not everything always goes according to plan. I had planned on going to Tibi the day before. I tried to squeeze in as much as possible despite saying I’m going to take it easy this season. I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather for a while, and it seems like physical ailments had the last laugh that day. I ended up not making it to any shows, backstage or not, but I was still able to get the complete details of the look for you from Aveda.<\/p>\n

As you may know, I work with Aveda a lot. I find that the company goals of being ethical, sustainable and all-natural is something I incorporate in my day-to-day life and strive to achieve. Why am I saying this? Because it may seem like I’m advertising Aveda a lot. Honestly though, I really like the brand. I actually requested all Aveda as a holiday gift once (and got a year’s supply of Aveda bath\/hair products). That was way before I started reporting on it! Obviously, this could not be a more perfect partnership.<\/p>\n

Public School<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

I was pretty relieved that designers were making political statements this season, cuz I’m practically a political scientist after this election. I wore my jab at alternative facts hoodie, while Public School sent down runway models wearing PP pins and red hats with the words “Make America New York” emblazoned in white.<\/p>\n

The makeup and hair remained effortless and balanced out a pretty strong combo of clothes. Big celebs aside, most of us don’t really do our hair to the T and spend hours in front of the mirror before a political rally. The choice to keeps things simple was correct.<\/p>\n
