I am so excited to share with you a quick recap from my recent trip to NYFW and a look at my outfit for Day 1. While fashion week is exciting, February in New York is extremely cold. So planning your outfits is a little tricky, but definitely strategic. You want to be comfortable, yet “put together” and layering is a must!
I loved wearing these Radium Leggings from Carbon 38 to backstage at the Leanne Marshal show. You guys know how much I love Carbon 38 and I could not wait for these leggings to arrive in the mail just in time for me to take them on my trip. Not only are they extremely comfortable, but they have a shiny finish…almost like leather, but feel like fabric. I layered them with my favorite Ash Booties and Carbon 38 Parka over this top. It was the perfect combination for warmth and comfort. Would you judge me if I told you I wore these leggings more than once during this trip? You know how it goes when you find a pair that you love (plus they were so easy to pack)!
During our trip we were able to meet with some of my favorite brands and see a few shows and presentations. I absolutely loved meeting with the Birchbox Team (check out this dutch braid they gave me) and can’t wait to share with you an exciting project coming this summer. We also managed to pack in a few showroom visits with Alison Brod and Hunter Bell. I’ll be sharing more from our trip tomorrow!
Thanks for reading! xx

Love this all black look! It’s refreshing to see this look on your blog. My boyfriend’s family lives in Texas, and I know you guys love color. In New England we definitely dress a lot darker. This look was perfect for NYC.

Love the Carbon38 pants! How do you like the zipper? Would it be awkward for someone who’s only about 5’2″?
Ashley Robertson says
Hi Christina,
Thank you so much for your question! Based on their sizing chart, the inseam looks to be 29″. I am around 5’7, and they hit about an inch or 2 above my ankle. I’m afraid the zipper might cause a problem if you’re 5’2. Have you seen these http://bit.ly/1QocDMT I think they might be a better option 🙂
Hope that helps! Thanks for reading xx Ashley
