NYC Native or Imposter? // Shaynah


I guess going to a fashion mecca like New York makes me feel SEVERELY inadequate as a fashion blogger. None the less I was confused as a local on multiple occasions I suppose using my phone to get directions made me look busy enough to pass as a native. One of my favorite things are the woman who wear really bad lip stick. Maybe in some respects I hope that will be me. They just rock the look no matter if it is only their doorman (or cat) who sees them. I am starting to realize it is confidence that makes or breaks a fashion statement!

NYC Street Style (a view from behind) // Shaynah

 
How dapper of you too look so chic all the while helping preserve the planet, major props! 

 Fancy people. Let's pretend they are going to the Opera, shall we?
 Who does not love a guy who can pull off florals and red pants!?
 Gold Pants??? Are you kidding me?? She is my hero!
 I couldn't help but be in love with these little girls! Sporting bright colors, darling! Plus, I love a kid in a hood *swoon*
 Love the tailored look. Perfected with patterned tights. These are tricky since they can look scandalous. She rocked them like she came straight out of Little "J's" closet {gossip girl} (hoping that reference didn't make me loose my street cred *wink*
 backpacks are so hot right now!
 Could you die? this little doll in her gold doc martens (or replicas) SERIOUSLY stylin'!

This girl's face was gorgeous but trying to be discreet really didn't pay off, someone's elbow was covering it:/ Her boots were still worth posting....


So I am not one to be shy, but certainly not being a local (or nearly as stylish as these people) seemed to get to me in NYC. However, given the fact that most are from behind you still get a good idea of why I felt the need to bust out my not-so-discreet camera and snap a shot here and there! These New York kids could have their own street style post- perhaps, I noticed the kids cause I was a mom missing her boys, or maybe because I find it impossible to comprehend raising my kids in that city... either way I am glad I noticed these tiny fashionistas! I promise I will work on my street photography in the near future! Until then enjoy the few I got:)

Street Style from 2011 Fashion Weeks // Elizabeth

One of the best ways to get style inspiration is to look at street style. I love looking at other people's interpretation of fashion and style - to think of fashion as an art is one way to be daring and to put pieces together that you would never dream of going together. Here are some photos from Milan, Paris, London and New York fashion weeks of 2011. For more go to Elle.com
