For Day 1 of NYFW I decided to go with a silhouette that I have never tried before: full and semi-baby doll. Daring? Yes, but I am glad I went for it! It proved to be one of my fav looks so far. This dress is from Brooklyn vintage store (and my new obsession), Biddies and Blokes. What attracted me to it was the beautiful leather and flirty pleats. It was also super comfortable, making it perfect for the shows and all the walking around afterwards at FNO.
My oxfords are BDG from Urban Outfitters. Flats for NYFW? Yes and Yes! They are chic and of course, super comfy. My shades are by Mercura, my ultimate staple! I truly cannot live without them : ) My headwrap is from my mom! I love incorporating my Nigerian heritage into my everyday looks. Bangles are from Biddies and Blokes. (Will post close up shots of these shortly!) This necklace is from Uganda and is made entirely of paper! I got it from the giveaway table at ESSENCE, sick!
The photo above is from one of my favorite sites: FashionBombDaily! I also occasionally contribute to their site so it was awesome to be featured!
Here are some more shots from Day 1:

I went home in between shows for a quick lunch and thought it would be fun to change necklaces! I am wearing my NOIR Keith Haring chain. (See below)
Here I am sitting front row at the Arise show! Ozwald Boateng killed it!!!

It’s always so great to chat with all the photographers at tents. It’s incredible that some of them have been shooting me since 2010! We have fun : ) I will be updating this post with new images as they come and including some fun pics of me and my friends at FNO!
Special thanks to FashionBombDaily, Italian Vogue and ZadenRow!
