When fashion connoisseurs and style enthusiasts from around the world flock to NYC for one of the most important weeks of the year, it can only mean one thing: major fashion inspiration is about to happen because it’s New York Fashion Week (NYFW). It’s the time when NYC’s streets are packed with models, photographers, the fashion elite and the fashion loving. As haute fashion houses premiere their newest collection, bloggers and fashion writers take meticulous note, predicting the trends and forecasting the upcoming season’s fashion. While most will to do anything for a seat at one of the runway shows, we prefer a more pedestrian view—because as much as we love the runways, it’s always the street style trends we are dying to see.

And since we know you want to try the top trends, we searched high and low to find the trends we noticed were the most loved
