You guys - it's September *already*. You know what that means? Yes, I know it's almost Fall, but that's not what I'm talking about. It's time for "Mercedes Benz Fashion Week" in New York City! And in September, they show the collections for Spring/Summer wear for next year.

Well, I'm excited to tell you guys that I will be getting to go to NYC this season and bring you all kinds of coverage - everything from backstage, talking to makeup artists and hairstylists; front of house, watching the actual clothing presentations; checking out hair and beauty salons; and even reporting from some of the best parties during the week. Now, not only will I be attending MBFW, I will also be in NYC for "Fashion's Night Out", which is a night to celebrate shopping and fashion. As of right now I think there is something like 950 events lined up in NYC alone! But, it's not just a NYC event - it's global - make sure and look to see if there are any events in your town so you can participate, too. (*You may want to google if your town isn't listed. I know for a fact several Oklahoma City places are doing something, but it's Oklahoma isn't listed on the page. Boo!)

I will be nice and give you guys fair warning - if you are following me on twitter you know that when I travel I tweet *a lot*. Well, considering everything going on this trip, expect my tweeting to be in overdrive. I can't help it - I wanna share what I am doing THAT MINUTE with you guys & that's the best way to do it. So, if you wanna take a break from me for a week, I totally understand. (*Just come back on the 15th). But, if you want to feel like you are there with me, then make sure to follow me and you'll get all the up to the minute stuff that I have going on.

I'm excited to head out there on Thursday & hope you are excited to go with me, too!

*UPDATE* I just wanted to include some links that I found about happenings around Oklahoma City for Fashion's Night Out OKC: The MOOD blog lists several of the participants, here is the Facebook page for the event and here is Alex, from "The Makeup Bar" (*who is primarily spearheading this event) speaking with the Fox 25 Morning Show about FNO. So, all you local OKC folks have no excuse for not getting out there Friday, because you can't say you didn't know what was going on!
