With New York Fashion Week in full swing, I wanted to share a few essentials that I always have while running around NYC. From tech to beauty and even something slightly out there, you’ll be sure to see me with all these items during NYFW!
Tech
Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III Camera
I recently upgraded my camera! I absolutely love this new camera, even though I’m still trying to learn all of its features. It’s a mirrorless camera by Olympus with an amazing vintage look. I personally thing it enhances my NYFW outfits!
Portable Charger
Bloggers everywhere will attest to the need for a portable charger! Without this, you guys really wouldn’t get all the looks at the shows, IG updates, and more. Mine is just larger than a tube of lipstick which is why I love it. Plus, it’ll take my battery from 0-70% in one charge… a life saver!
Beauty
Liquid Lipstick
Is there any other lip product better than liquid lipstick? I love the matte look and the extra long staying power. This season I really love a neutral or brown colored lip. Mine is by Au Naturale, but I also really love NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream which have the same texture (and is also cruelty free!)
Blotterazzi Pro
Any oily skin ladies in NYFW? Here’s how I stay matte – this nifty little blotting tool that is reusable! The Blotterazzi Pro is made of the same material as a Beauty Blender, by the makers of Beauty Blender which obviously means it’s awesome. Lastly, it makes sense to have this since others I’d just have a ton of teeny, oily blotting sheets in my purse.
Travel Size Perfume
NYFW literally means a ton of running around, climbing up and down stairs, extra warm event spaces, and sometimes being a little close for comfort with tons of people. Oh yea, and since I don’t have a press team I literally spend the entire day in Manhattan so I freshen up with some perfume. A rollerball – or even those little sample size perfumes – is the perfect size to just through in my clutch.
Hand Cream
This is mostly a cop-out on my list but its totally necessary! Although my face is oily, my hands are dry so I it’s essential for me to keep my hands moisturized all day. Lately I’ve used this rose scented hand cream by Diptyque.
And One More…
Kombucha Tea
I’m obsessed! I tried kombucha tea for the first time a few years ago and now I’m hooked. It has the benefits of green tea plus probiotics for digestion. Now that it’s more widely sold I’ll buy this as a pick-me-up between shows.
Although these are items in my bag during NYFW, they can easily be used any day! See (and shop!) all the items below!
