Looking back on my Instagram it looks like my very first fashion show was BCBGMAXAZRIA fall of 2014 so you do the math! This was when NYFW was held in tents at Lincoln Center. I had interned for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week the year before and worked as an usher at the BCBG show, so for me to be invited back as a seated guest I was ecstatic–one of my favorite career highlights!
As Potter lays out the card for us, she gets the immediate vibe that this year’s Valentine’s Day is all about subverting the nature of what the holiday has to look like. “This feels like the Valentine’s Day to break all of your own rules,” she says. “Forget the past, forget the way it should be. To me, we’re not doing the stale, old thing for Valentine’s Day.”
Just like the rest of the Gen Z fashion crowd, TikTok is my go-to source for all things trends and style. Sure, I get inspiration from the runways and my favorite celebrities, but the real magic happens on the clock app. This month’s conversation the teens are partaking in? Banana Republic, the glossy retailer associated with the mid-2000s, is back, and frankly, much better than it’s ever been.

I’ve decided 2023 is the year I’m going to take a break from island getaways and go on a cold vacation: The Alps, here I come—and I have to make sure my packing game is strong. I’m checking off everything I need for a cold climate: ski jacket, cabin shoes, comfy sweats, gloves, and more. And I wouldn’t think of leaving my go-to beauty products behind, so I’m packing a condensed skincare routine and a lip gloss (or two). If cold weather is also in your future, take a look at the 30 fashion editor–approved winter must-haves below.
