Survival Kit with CVS

CVS Fashion Week Kit

Fashion Week is here! I am currently en route to NYC until next week. My suitcase is tighter than tight, jam packed with 8 pairs of shoes, two handbags, 3 clutches.. and well, lots more. One thing I always have room for? The essentials, or as I like to call it, my fashion week survival kit. This season, I partnered up with CVS to pull together a handful of items that are a must have for any fashion week girl. Check them out below & read about why I need each one!

 

CVS Fashion Week Survival Kit

 

1. Heel Insoles – after just a few hours, feet start to hurt when you’re wearing 4 inch+ heels, especially when it’s 90+ degrees outside! I always have a pair of insoles on hand to make my shoes a little more padded and comfortable.

2. Bandaids – all kinds of band aids. I’ve made sure to stash different shapes and sizes for blistered heels, toes, you name it. These ones are great because they have antibacterial built in – an absolutely necessity when you’re on the go + don’t have room in your bag for an explosion of neosporin.

3. Instant Stain Remover – because we all spill and who wants to look like a slob sitting next to Miss Anna herself. Okay, well maybe not sitting next to, but you get the idea.. no stains allowed during fashion week.

4. Floss – because no one wants to see that green lettuce from lunch at your next meeting. This is a quick way to keep your mouth refreshed on the go and so small it can fit into any bag!

5. Eye Makeup Remover Pads – this will be my first season bringing these along, but I’ve found that with several outfit changes a day and going from day to night events, a quick little fix of the makeup can do wonders. These are great to have on hand to switch out eye shadows or change your regular liner to cat eye without smearing your entire face. I’ll also use them at the end of the day after all my makeup has been washed off to keep my eyes refreshed.

6. Hand Sanitizer – there’s so many germs in the city and when you’re in and out of every possible venue, it’s necessary to stay sanitized!

7. Hair, Skin, Nail Vitamins – as I just mentioned, there’s so many germs in the city. When I come back, my skin always feels so dirty and clogged, my hair either dried out from too many washes, or greasy from the city air, and my nails are chipped and breaking (something I cannot stand!). This year, I’m coming prepared by taking this complex to keep my H+S+N fresh, strong, and clear!

Thanks to CVS, I’ll be armed and ready to take on the week and whatever mishaps it (might) bring along!
