<p>A <a href="http://www.policymic.com/articles/25182/winter-storm-nemo-2013-threat-level-rises-blizzard-warning-for-all-of-nyc">Winter Advisory warning</a> for <a href="http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Latest-News-Wires/2013/0207/Winter-storm-Nemo-2-feet-or-more-of-snow-possible-video">two feet of snow</a> couldn't have come at a worse time for all those fashionistas who make their biannual bread during the upcoming weeks. While we'd never encourage anyone to take risks during Blizzard Nemo (awww ... even the name makes us sleepy!), it's also not a day to slack off! There is Fashion to reported on, people! However, there's definitely a "right" and a "wrong" way to cover it. Here, our friends Goofus and Gallant take us on a journey through the Fall 2013 line during a snowstorm.<br />

- Gallant works from his home, careful to be aware of any Advisory Warnings from the <a href="http://www.policymic.com/articles/25179/nemo-tracker-mta-travel-advisories-could-come-soon">MTA</a>, <a href="http://www.weather.com/travel/nemo-travel-updates-20130206">Amtrak and airlines</a>.</p>
<p>- Goofus still tries to make it to tent shows today and shuttles from Milk Studios to Lincoln Center, thinking, "A blizzard can't stop fashion!"</p>
<p>- Gallant rechecks <a href="http://www.mbfashionweek.com/schedule">the official Mercedes-Benz schedule</a> to see about any cancellations or updates to his day.</p>
<p>- Goofus doesn't even glance at Twitter; ends up waiting two hours for a <a href="https://twitter.com/TheCut/status/299891797566566400">Marc Jacobs show</a> that has already been rescheduled.</p>
<p>- Gallant realizes after several hours that he might not even need to go to the actual shows; <a href="http://www.examiner.com/article/new-york-fashion-week-fall-winter-2013-begins">bloggers posting real-time updates</a> and <a href="http://www.gettyimages.com/Search/Search.aspx?contractUrl=2&amp;language=en-US&amp;p=Fashion+Week&amp;assetType=image">Getty Images</a> give him everything he needs besides an hourlong wait in a freezing auditorium.</p>
<p>- Goofus still bitches to his friends that he remembers the real Fashion Week ... when it was still held in <em>tents</em>.</p>
<p>- Gallant keeps up with his contacts and gets real-time information by using the phones during today's storm.</p>
<p>- Goofus pretends his wifi is down and watches <em>House of Cards</em> all day.</p>
