Fortunately, I was able to document a lot of my experiences. My strategy was to inquire before taking photos if I was in a booth, and the reaction was generally positive. I did learn that the indie vendors and designers at Project and POOLTRADESHOW were much more likely to allow photography than the larger vendors at WWDMAGIC. Naturally, bloggers are far outnumbered by buyers, but the daily blogger panels hosted by Teen Vogue, WWD, and FNPlatform made me feel right at home. Here are a few notable images from my short trip to Las Vegas, and for more photos, have a look at Part 1 and Part 2 of the store windows on my other fashion blog, as well as my 2012/2013 fashion trend preview.

Great pictures!
Thank you for commenting on my blog, and in response to your question -- I ordered my ring from Romwe on the 9th, and have yet to receive it. However, today is President's day and there is no post today, so that is also a factor. They say it usually takes 5-7 business days :) but remember, it is coming from HK!
