NYFW MODEL DIARIES DAY 5:
Monday morning started early at The Row. I headed backstage to check out the makeup before I had to run to a fitting.
The makeup by Sunday Riley was fresh and flawless. They used a palette of nudes applying minimal mascara and a taupey brown highlighter on the eye.
More from Day 5 to come!

NYFW MODEL DIARIES DAY 4:
Sunday was a pretty light day for me. Malan Breton was my first show at Pier59 this season.
backstage everyone glued to their iPhones. . .
The makeup drew inspiration from old Hollywood glam like Marilyn Monroe. The lip and the eye were emphasized. They used a deep red lipstick, liquid eyeliner and falsies to play up the drama.
After the show I headed home to rest for a busy Monday.

NYFW MODEL DIARIES DAY 3:
The morning after the blizzard!
My first show of the day was Ruffian. The look was Victorian with a blood red lip and a red smokey eye.
The MAC color palette
Obsessed with the amazing nails by MAC (especially the veils)
Since I couldn’t make it in time to Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony, the lovely Carolina Amaris of Lurve Magazine checked out the backstage beauty for me.
MAC key artist Mark Carrasquillo designed a bad girl look cutting their false lashes in half to add some edge.
It was a serious sixties movement. Each girl had her own unique hairstyle that reflected her personality, I love how it turned out.
Backstage with Opening Ceremony’s Humberto.
The shoes were so good.
My last show of the day was for Israeli designer Alon Livne at Lincoln Center.
The makeup look was clean with hints of metallics to catch the light. Our hair was tied up into armored buns.
After the show I caught up with some friends before heading out for the night. See you tomorrow. . .

NYFW MODEL DIARIES DAY 2:
I started off day two of NYFW with the Redken team. We did a shoot in the morning before I headed off to the shows.
I loved the side braided crown they created for my first look.
After the shoot I rushed across town to Lorry Newhouse where I was walking in the show. I love the side part they did on all the girls. After the show was done I hopped in a cab and headed to Milk Studios to shoot backstage at SUNO.
When I arrived backstage Xiao Wen was getting her nails done.
The makeup look was fresh and romantic. The main focus were the eyes with earthy red tones (cream and powder eye shadow by MAC) blended in. They opted not to use mascara or lipstick and to apply an extra coat of moisturizer to the girls for a dewy look.
Rococo provided the polish for the show with real gold flakes in it.
Codie Young had an army prepping her.
After the show it was off to bed before another long day tomorrow.

NYFW MODEL DIARIES DAY 1:
My NYFW kicked off with the Surface to Air show. I loved their signature ‘go home’ sweatshirt paired with the dark lip.
Backstage I found my look for the show.
How amazing is this nail ring that I got to wear?
And that’s a wrap for day one.
