I attended Fashion’s Night Out for the third year in a row. I’m happy that I haven’t missed one yet despite make a cross-Atlantic move in the middle of it all! While I am still trying to catch up on London Fashion Week events as I look sadly upon all the NYFW fun my blogger friends are having in New York, I can only try to make the most of FNO – which to be honest, is my favorite part of Fashion Week! Here are some snippets of my night out in London.

With some fierce fashionistas at Selfridges.

Tiger of Sweden threw a nice party with free flowing champagne and beer.

Zegna was packed and rightly so with great looking people and yummy snacks. They also had a photo shoot for guests with a chance to win a Zegna bag.

Fashion Week is approaching and I am getting super excited! Yes, it has the aura of being an uber exclusive invite only affair, but Fashions Night Out gives any and all fashionistas the chance to experience it and get a taste of the designers & boutiques without being a fashion editor like Anna Wintour or one of her poor assistants (a la Devil Wears Prada).

What is Fashions Night Out?

In simple terms it is an evening during Fashion Week in which retailers and some designers that may not have showcased in an actual fashion show and some that have host an event for the general public. Among the things you can expect to find is free flowing champagne, A-list celebrity appearances and if you are lucky enough, some great giveaways.

Do’s & Don’ts:

• Don’t be fooled by my ‘open to the public’ statement and definitely do show up 30-45 mins ahead of time for the bigger events.
• What to wear to FNO:
  • Don’t dress like you are going to a club.
  • Do wear an outfit that is trendy and hip.
  • Don’t wear uncomfortable shoes if you plan on party hopping.
  • Do wear your best accessories like layered chains and your best bag.
  • Don’t overdo your makeup.
  • Do put in the time to get flawless skin and try a bold lip.

Here is evidence of some craziness that went on during Fashions Night Out last year and based on this, I am definitely not going to miss it this time either!
