YOUR FASHION WEEK SURVIVAL GUIDE
Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week begins tomorrow in New York, and though we're sure you've got the wardrobe to rival what's coming down the runway, do you have the necessary gear to get you through all eight days in the tents? PageOne's Fashion Week survival pack will help you keep organized, look fierce, and stay energized as you snag the first look at what’s coming up for Fall 08.




Is the Vivien Tam show at 5 p.m. on the 7th, or at 7 p.m. on the 5th? Keep track of all your shows (and invitations) with Nava Milano Settegiorni's 2008 calendar diary, $38. Buy one by clicking here.

Don’t let the bright lights blind you while taking your front-row seat. Shield your eyes with Prada's new titanium mesh aviators, $385, www.prada.com.




Take scrupulous notes or sketch your favorite looks with Muji's aluminum mechanical pencil, $14, www.momastore.org.




Can't draw? Take your style snaps at the tents with Canon's sleek Powershot SD870 IS, $350, www.canon.com.



The eternal fashion week question: Just how late will Marc's show start? Keep track with Bell & Ross's BR 02 Instrument watch in pink gold, www.bellross.com.

After that last model struts off the runway, grab a cocktail and unwind. One of our favorites this season: The Brazilian Wax, featuring Cabana Cachaça. Add ice to a highball or rocks glass, and pour equal parts Cabana Cachaça and pineapple juice. Add a splash of club soda and triple sec. Stir and garnish with a lime slice.

Recover from last night's soiree and get ready for another day in Bryant Park with energy and immunity booster, EBOOST, $22.50 + shipping for box of 24 packets, www.eboost.com.

And coming soon... CITY's spring fashion issue—on newsstands beginning next week!
