After a very quick last minute decision to attend NYFW, I arrived during the coldest few days of the year! I know you are probably thinking I'm crazy for wearing this outfit in the freezing cold, but it's fashion week and sometimes you have to make sacrifices. One good thing about doing winter shopping during this time of the year is almost everything is on major SALE!! I found this Zara coat on sale for $60 (unfortunately sold out now, but here is a similar one), and several other items I stuffed in my suitcase for NYFW. I snagged these python booties over the holidays, and even though they are sold out I found a similar pair of ankle booties that are also on sale right now.

I decided to go with this classic black and white outfit for Day 2 of NYFW. I have to say I think it was definitely a hit! You really can't go wrong with black and white in my book, and don't be afraid to mix patterns and prints like I did for this NYFW look.
