Baby it’s cold outside, so Fashion Bomb photographer Marta McAdams stationed herself inside Lincoln Center to take a few photographs on Day 1 of New York Fashion Week.
From innovative outerwear to out of this world accoutrements, these show attendees know how to stay fly in these frigid temps.
Ndoema of TheGlobalGirl.com was on trend in black and white separates, offsetting an all ebony look with a snow colored cape, clutch, and sunglasses.
Glamour Magazine Editor Rajni Jacques is a master at layering, and tied a warm flannel shirt under a comfy black coat.
Joshua Kissi of Street Etiquette went for military chic in an olive toned double breasted topper and scrunched pants. Get into those exposed socks!
Christine Ng of Pop Sugar played with textures, sliding a fur stole over a leather and wool jacket. I loved her accessories, especially her Alexander Wang booties and Givenchy purse!
Just because it’s winter doesn’t mean you can’t embrace brights! Ambika stood out in a sea of blacks and grays in a neon accented maxi dress.
The fabulous Daisy Lewellyn of Fab.com also incorporated vibrant accents with a scarf, wallet, and a hot pink lip.
Noe also worked with colors in his own way, adding a pop to his conservative outfit with lipstick red pants.
Legs bare, don’t care! C. Michelle of CMichelleStyles.com adopted my personal mantra, showing off her gams in a sequined mini skirt.
Print on print is always chic (when done correctly). Athanaelle showed she knew what she was doing in layered polka dots.
Prints were also on tap for Shunda, who accented a patterned suit with gold pumps and a turquoise top.
Olu uplifted a collegiate look with a knit beanie perched precipitously on his head.
And lastly Celia Smith of Essence.com layered to the limit with black and gray pieces, then added a bit of interest with bright red lips.
That does it!
What did you think of Real Style on Day 1 of New York Fashion Week?

I looooooove those polka dots on Athanaelle.
Ambika’s coat is nice but I don’t really like the outfit overall…
I want Christine’s Alexander Wang booties like NOW.
I think her name is Rajni.

I love Ambika’s maxi! Thanks Claire and FBD Staff for keeping us up-to-date on Fashion Week (for those who could not literally attend)…the “Real Style” posts are always so inspiring! :-)

Oooohhh Claire. Love this post. We got some stars in the group; Ndoema & Christine Ng are standouts to me. I’m not much of a traditionalist but the maxi dress is feeling a little seasonaly inappropriate to me. Hope you’re having a blast. Keep it comin!

I work in the field of Social Services and love fashion, but the daily look is sneakers n jeans (mist days people look like they’re going for a run n not to court). Must be so fab to go to work with everyone looking so unique! I appreciate Shunda, Ndoema, n Christines looks, so alive!

Everyone looking nice! With the exception of the Street Etiquette guy, that jacket is kind of small, nice look though.

Thank you SO much. I’ve been waiting to see some of “our” style at NY Fashion Week 2013. You’d think “we” dont’ exist…tisk tisk tisk.
