New York Fashion Week - Tuesday Feb 17

Today started out as a optimistic day of enjoying my press access at the Tents of Bryant Park. I wasn't expecting to attend any shows today, but instead wanted to focus on the sartorial sightings at 41st and 6th, while hanging out with my friend and fellow blogger, Marci A. of Heels and Hightops. What started as a day of networking, ramped up as a day full of attending some awesome shows and meeting some very interesting people.

One of the coolest guys I met was Mr. "Totally Cool" himself, Richard Renda, who is one of media's premier regulars in the Fashion Industry. It was awesome to meet him today; he was showing me the ropes of Fashion Week, enlightening me on how to soak up the entire week. Richard, you are totally cool, no matter how "cripple" you were today (lol).

Here are some shots of a few of the uniquely dressed at Fashion Week. I wonder what some of these good people do when they can't go to a runway show...
