My essential for fashion week is a really great statement shoe to dress up a more casual look.

The highlight of my fashion week was getting to work with my favorite prestige haircare line. It's a wonderful moment when things come full circle and you partner with a brand you've been a huge fan of since the get go! I got to go backstage and sit front row at all their shows, interview designers and hair leads, and get an up-close and intimate look at the beautiful madness of fashion week.
What is your favorite trend for SS18?
My favorite trend for SS18 is androgyny. Lines between gender and all its forms of expression get more blurred by the day, and I love seeing it embraced and exalted on the runway. Another classic trend I don't see going away is feminine florals. I know, I know..."Florals for spring? Groundbreaking." But designers overcome the challenge of trite trends by giving them refreshing twists and it's so fun to see said twists in every show.
What was your key fashion essential of the week?
My key fashion essential for Fashion Week was my Gucci Aceheart sneakers from Farfetch. Wearing heels all day, every day just isn't feasible (nor is it smart), and changing into sneakers between shows saved my life. But when you're wearing a killer outfit, any old pair of sneakers won't do. My Gucci Aceheart sneakers not only served their function of giving my feet a rest, they actually elevated any outfit I paired them with.
