I can’t believe it’s been over a week since I returned from NYFW! I’ve already shared my NYFW F/W 2019 Day One Recap with you all so today is dedicated to my NYFW F/W 2019 Day Two Recap!
NYFW F/W 2019 Day Two Recap
Lesson Learned at NYFW
Day One was CRAZY busy and while Day Two was still pretty full, it wasn’t nearly as exhausting. I started off the day meeting one of my favorite brand contacts over breakfast. My meeting went from fab to fearful in a matter of seconds (literally).
Here is my real-life horror story:
You may laugh but I still have the iPhone 6s. I’ve had an upgrade available for a year and a half and I just never wanted to bother with setting up a new phone. So I don’t know if it was the fact that I have a dinosaur phone or the fact that it was freezing, but my charge went from 75% to 4% in seconds while I was on my way to my meeting. I didn’t think I would need my portable charger since this had never happened before and I immediately started worrying about how I would get back to apartment…with no phone to call an Uber and no way to get inside as I didn’t have a key. Luckily, the barista was kind enough to charge my phone.
After my meeting, I called an Uber and walked a block to meet them. At this time, my phone was charged at 60%…and it died AGAIN. I remembered the license plate number and waited fifteen minutes in the freezing cold. They never showed up, but of course they charged me anyway. While I was trying to figure out what to do, I spun around and a phone store was located right behind me. Can you believe it? I went in to charge my phone enough to let my roommate know I was on my way so I could get inside. Upon further inspection, he said my battery was bad and that I would likely need a new phone before I leave. *ughhhh!* With just enough charge to send a text, I hailed my first taxi and headed back to the apartment.
It was a very scary couple of hours but I learned some valuable lessons here: Upgrade your phone haha and NEVER leave without a portable charger.
NYFW F/W 2019 Day Two
Yuna Yang
Yuna Yang is always a favorite and I’ve gone to her show for the past three seasons! I just love her feminine, whimsical and playful designs and this season definitely didn’t disappoint. Aside from her collections, what I really love are the interesting venues she chooses to showcase them in. The first season was a garden/museum, last season was a church and this season was a bookstore! So unique and memorable!
Son Jung Wan
Son Jung Wan’s collection was an explosion of sparkle, faux fur, and embellishments galore! The colors were fun and playful and I thought the silhouettes were inventive and unique. I also really loved the attention to detail with the shoes – each was embellished with some form of bows, jewels, feathers, etc. This collection had SO many looks, which I really loved because most shows are quite short in comparison.
Brandon Maxwell Backstage with Aveda
Being backstage at a show is absolutely liberating and exciting! As someone with experience in the fashion design field, it is just so incredible to see how a show comes together behind the scenes. I loved getting to see the models getting glammed up and I was lucky enough to chat with the head Aveda stylist about the looks they were creating for the show.
Elle Magazine Event
After my backstage excursion, I met up with a couple of friends at the Elle event. I caught the last bit of it so I wasn’t there for long but there were so many amazing vendors. I, especially, loved the gorgeous venue (look at these floors!)! Afterwards, we explored a bit of the city and ate an amazing dinner 🙂
Make sure to check out Day Three and Four!

I keep seeing looks from the Son Jung Wan show and I can’t get over the pieces. So beautiful! Sorry about your phone experience (I’m also one of those people who hates setting up a new phone). But I hope you’ve since upgraded!

these runway pics are gorgeous! Glad you had a great time
I too have become so dependent on my phone! It is always my safety net! I love hailing cabs in New York, but everywhere else that I travel I often Uber, so I need a phone!
Love that blue coat, it works really well with all the white
Love this recap but not going to lie, I am obsessed w this OUTFIT of yours! XO
I’m sorry your first day went downhill so fast! Stupid phone batteries. Sounds like a pretty great first couple of days, though, and I can’t wait to read about the rest of the trip! And I just love your outfit…everything!

Gosh that makes for a awful day, Lizzie. I’m the worst at remembering my charger because my hubby usually has it. But it’s a good point.
We held off on getting new phones for the longest time, but I’m so glad we finally did last year. We even went from an iphone to an android…but they are all basically the same. You’re a smart cookie…it’ll be easy for you!
Great shows and collections. What a fun time to be able to drool over these. And you. You are so drool worthy especially with those shoes!!
XOXO

Great pastel winter look. Thanks for sharing the NY fashion week photos. Yes, time seems to fly. The older I get the faster it goes. Why is that?
GIRL that happened to me! It went from 80% to 1% when we were walking down to Urban Backyard. Once I got inside though, it went back up to like 75% it was the weirdest thing. I swear it just got too cold! Glad the rest of your day turned out better. As always, I love your look!

I love that shiny floral dress! and you look amazing! x
I love those black boots! They look so cute.
Loving this baret on you babe! Hope you had an amazing time at NYFW!!
xoxo Sarah
You look so gorgeous in these photos!
Winter clothes can also decorate, the blessing designers increasingly remember about the real needs of a person in the frost and produce things that look great and at the same time not less effectively protect from the cold.
