I’ve been talking New York Fashion Week (NYFW) all week long and today I had to bypass the Friday 5 because I’ve had too much NYFW fun and it’s only day two!

The fashion mayhem officially began this week and it is non-stop until the 14th. I plan to be spending my free time covering runway shows, spotting trends on the streets, and reporting it straight to you guys back home. Fortunately, I have been able to score a few tickets to some pretty amazing NYFW events and I can’t wait to share all of the juicy details.

Last night officially kicked off my week and half of celebrating the most amazing fashion designers and brands in the world. I was invited to a blogger event hosted by Gap and I could NOT turn this one down. One of my fave bloggers Kendi, of Kendi Everyday was the host of the event held at the Gap store in Lincoln Square (not too far from me).

I brought along friend and fellow blogger Genevieve of Daily Dose of Vitamin B with Genevieve Marie. We grabbed a cocktail and enjoyed the fashion and fun. Of course the highlight of the night was meeting Kendi and a few members of the Gap team, but coming in a close second was the Instagram contest (that could win you $500). Of course we entered, even if it meant we had to take a shameless “selfie pic” in some fabulous Gap gear. Keep an eye out for my contest pic on my Instagram today!

Check out some pics I snapped from last night’s event. Even the outfits Gen and I styled from Gap’s new collection! Cross your fingers for that $500 WIN…

P.S. – That’s Kendi!!
