The first evening of New York Fashion Week, Fashion’s Night Out will encompass festivities galore— from inventive window displays to model and celebrity appearances. Champagne may flow; hors d’oeuvres may be passed. Rumors of musical performances, downtown barbecues, shoe capsules, limited-edition rings, and sweepstakes abound.

Sultry R&B Diva Beyonce Knowles proves that even celebs can have an “off” day… The total look screams fashion disaster!!! Bey is rockin’ too many trends at once. The Ray Bans seems to be her wardrobe staple lately and with 88 degree humid weather in New York City (where the photo was taken) those booties are a NO-NO!

Beyonce… collect your thoughts and FIRE your stylist!!!

022009_designers_Main2

The world’s premiere fashion event is set to take center stage……. The Mercedes-Benz New York Spring/Summer 2010 Collections are taking place September 10-17, 2009.
Unless your a fashion writer, blogger, celeb or socialite…. Your chances of getting in are slim to none! Unless…. You take a peek at some of our Tips that may actually get you in! One request, if any of these tips happen to work, send us an email treschicstyle@gmail.com and let us know.

Fashion Week Tips That May Get You In

  • Volunteering can always get you in the tents, although you may have missed the deadline it’s still worth it to contact them as the tents are always in need of extra hands…..
  • Dress the part……..Looking and acting like a fashionista helps your chances of getting into the places you want. Obviously if your reading this blog, you must be on your style game…
  • Act Like You Belong There, Just stand in line with everyone else, inform those working the show that you don’t have a ticket, but you’d love to wait in standing. You’d be surprised how far a smile and a good attitude can get you in to the tents (worked wonders for me in the past)
