Spring MBFW 2014; New York part 1

IT'S HERE!! Finally after months of waiting and crossing off days on the calender it is here. Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York for the 2014 spring collections. A lot of you have asked some questions about this wonderful event so I am here to answer them.

1. Question: What is Fashion Week?
    Answer: Fashion Week Happens twice a year and is a time for all the designers to show case what they have been working on for the up coming seasons. It is only accessible for the press. You can not buy tickets. (sad face) Yes, you do see stars there but they are they to see the clothes and buy them. Then wear them on a red carpet and make us want the same thing. It's an chain of events and it works.

2. Question: Why is spring fashion week in the fall and fall fashion week in the spring?
    Answer: Well, putting the shows on early gives the chain stores time to keep up with all the main trends. That's why stores get coats in August and swim suits in January.

3. Question: Is the Fashion Week in New York the only one?
    Answer: No. Fashion Week actually started in Paris for a way to show case the clothes that designers where making. Well New York need to so the same thing so we took that idea. But it's okay because so did Milan, London, Miami, Berlin, Tokyo, Dubai And LA. Those are the ones that get more of the press, although the one in New York is the biggest.

Random Fact Time!
 -  Fashion Week is not actually a week, with all the designers it can not be. So it tends to run for about 7 to 10 days. But who cares?!? More Fashion for me.... I mean us.

Okay So now that  that is out of the way lets get down to the nitty gritty.

We Have a lot to get through so I will be here with all the coverage everyday with a video blog. (Yay!)
