This scribe doesn't care if you're envious or civic hometown-pride, New York City...actually Manhattan...sets the pace for everyone else.

With New York Fashion Week revving to roar, the media and business intensity squeezed into one week, not to mention the month-long planning of each and every fashion show underneath the tents, the stress can get to a person.

No fear, here's some New York hospitality for you all.

Regardless if you're a Prime & Proper Londoner, a French Chicette, a Sweet Southern Belle, Fast-Living Angeleno Stylista, or a No-Nonsense, Pragmatic New Yorker, we all come to New York Fashion Week for the same, common goal to be one of the first to see the newest and latest trends, styles, and fashion because our biological seasonal genes demand it.

All this trend-hunting takes energy and endurance while keeping up appearances.

This scribe is nice enough to offer you all Fashion Week-Anywhere Survival Kit but you all need a good, reliable chic tote, not an ugly bag you sooner toss in the back of the closet and sooner regret and forget, to haul from airport to sidewalk.

Nope, the smart preppy folks at Lacoste was kind to offer a limited edition collection of Blogger Bags thoughtfully designed by three top tastemakers/bloggers who are living that life and design bags with fellow bloggers in mind.

This practical but stylish totes are smart enough to haul your Fashion Week Survival Kit and necessary media equipment.

If you ever see a pair of tough, macho guys in tank tops and tutus, have no fear.  They're UrgentRX Pain Fairies, the good will ambassadors of the fast-dissolving-on-the-tongue pain relief UrgentRX Fast Powders that tackles anything stress-inducing such as: headaches, heart burn, allergy attack, ache & pain, upset stomach, and aspirin sprinkles for all sorts of aches, http://www.urgentrx.com/

UrgentRX Fast Powders are pain relief on the go because that's the exciting part of any Fashion Week, the rush of the thrill.  With those pain relief sprinkles, you can ease the accompanying physical stress while enjoying the thrill of the rush....ok, onto the next show, the next after-party, the next event. Make no pain stop for you, that's Urgent RX Fast Powders' goal.

For those who want a more holistic and homeopathic approach to surviving any type of Fashion Week, the Los Angeleno Fashionista/Stylista/Celebuntante will these pair better, rev up and recharge with a bottle of  Liquiteria, New York's original press juicery.  For Angeleno fashion industry professionals, this is how you survive, http://liquiteria.com/.  For those who clutch onto their big, wide, sturdy leather totes (such as this scribe), you can go no wrong with tossing a canister of Kusmi Tea Beauty Beverage Detox Tea into the tote, http://us.kusmitea.com/our-teas/wellness-tea/bb-detox.html.  This grapefruit-flavored green and mate tea offers on-the-go:

Detoxifying: Because this is where it all begins –the combination of mate and green tea, recognized for its effectiveness in eliminating excess fluid from the body, also improves your skin’s appearance by boosting toxin removal. Say hello to a radiantly healthy complexion!

Protecting: Along with green tea - already well-known for its powerful antioxidant properties - battle is joined by a potent hand-picked team of two plants: dandelion and rooibos, a South African plant with a sweet, fruity flavour.

Moisturizing from the inside out: Taking in liquid to keep your skin hydrated remains a fundamental daily beauty routine. The water that tea contains allows you to keep your skin moisturized from the inside out. BB Detox Kusmi is the perfect solution for those who might find it difficult to take in a litre and a half of water a day.

This scribe has fallen in love with Living Proof's three basics of shampoo, conditioner, and No Frizz Leave-In Conditioner, the classic, initial starter of this line when it was started by Cambridge, Massachusetts bio-chemists, way before Jennifer Aniston jumped into as its co-owner and spokesperson.

This scribe is and was just happy with the No Frizz Leave-In Conditioner but something better and more improved came along, isn't that always the case?

Just in time for New York Fashion Week, Living Proof Prime Style Extender, http://www.sephora.com/prime-style-extender-P375668?skuId=1460138.  Similar to the emerging class of BB Cream and CC Cream for the hair (keep your eyes out for them!), this weightless hairstyling primer that protects and extends the life of your style thanks to “miracle molecule,” OFPMA.

It protects and extends the life of your style twice as long, saving you time, day after day. It weightlessly perfects strands while smoothing and correcting hair texture. Prime detangles, corrects cuticle texture, and is so perfecting it can be worn alone, yet so weightless it can be layered under your favorite styler. Save time and forget the touch-ups.

All this in one tube that also comes in a TSA-friendly 2 ounces tube.  Forget lugging around hairspray cans, mousses, and gels and make room for other stuff like a nifty multi-purpose hybrid camera/video camcorder with social media hook-ups.

A tough and demanding city like New York (exemplified by and with pride, Anna Wintour) asks for an equally tough and demanding nail polish like Revlon Brilliant Strength Nail Polish.

This Fashion Week Survival Kit isn't just for New York alone. Nope, it's good enough for London, Paris, Milan, and a round-trip to sunny but perfectionist Los Angeles.

Happy New York Fashion Week!
