If you’ve ever been to New York Fashion Week, then you know how chaotic it can be. From early morning shows to late night wrap parties, it’s all fashion all day/night. To make it through the crazy week with your sanity intact, here are the top five things we recommend you have on hand at all times.

Comfortable shoes
Comfortable shoesThis season’s trendiest metallic-toe pumps may look fabulous, but after hours of running the streets of NYC, your toesies are going to need a break. Give them the rest they need in between events with a pair a flip flops, kept in your carry-all for those rare moments you get to rest.
We recommend these heavenly sandals from Sanuk. They are made from actual yoga mat material. It doesn’t get more peaceful than that.

Insoles
InsolesYou definitely can’t be sporting yoga flops all week, but for those times when you have to wear a pair of killer shoes, be sure to bring some of these with you to ease the pain.
We recommend Foot Petals. They have a variety of shapes and sizes for every intricate shoe design.

A bold statement necklace
A bold statement necklace“Having nothing to wear” just isn’t going to fly here at Fashion Week. For those times you find yourself in a rut, spice up your outfit with a show stopping necklace. One of these babies will transform your simple ensemble in a flash.
We recommend one of stella + dot's eye catching pieces.
