Stephanie LaCava and Bryanboy
Here’s another stylish duo for you: Stephanie LaCava and Bryanboy at Jason Wu. Though fashion week can be grueling, there are many happy reunions going on at the shows. These two friends and street style stars are particularly adept at wearing color and prints.
Mixed Prints, Outside Preen
These Prada stripes really have legs: Nautical stripes are already popping up in stores for yet another season. Bright graphic patterns like this mix on Leaf Greener of Elle China are a great way to usher in the spring. (And you can still stay warm in the process.)
Amanda Hearst at Michael Kors
Amanda Hearst looked so sharp in Michael Kors at the designer’s show. The graphic red pants and black and white striped sweater are both au courant and totally wearable.
On the Dance Floor, Jazz Age Lawn Party
Big band jazz by the Dreamland Orchestra might have been old fashioned, but it was certainly danceable. The vintage fashion came alive on the dance floor. More photos after the jump. (more…)
Girls in Short Shorts, Martha’s Vineyard
Another reason short shorts trumped maxi skirts this summer is their appeal in places other than New York, where a billowing maxi skirt might seem a little too Stevie Nicks on Main Street. These girls wore short shorts to shop on Main Street, Edgartown.
Black and White Stripes, Chrystie Street
There it is again: black and white stripes, this time on our neighbor delivering new artwork to the Jen Bekman Gallery.
Black and White Stripes, Delancey Street
I’m beginning to see a pattern….
Striped Skirt, Chrystie Street
Proof that a high-waisted skirt can also be sexy, this striped black and white tube skirt is effortlessly sophisticated.
70s Redux, Union Square
A cool ’70s redux look in Union Square complete with wide legged jeans, platform sandals and an afro to boot. Plus, the striped sailor bag is great for shopping the Greenmarket.
Nautical Stripes, Mulberry Street
Love the nautical influences in his outfit, from the stripes to the cabled sweater to the khakis and boat shoes. The other good thing about this trend: it’s not just stylish but supremely comfortable for running errands around the city.
Striped Maxi Dress, The Bowery
Longer hemlines are definitely not translating into dowdier looks for this season. Jersey maxi dresses are one popular interpretation of longer hemlines for a sporty, sexy daytime outfit. Love how she’s mixed this striped maxi dress with bright accessories: a yellow bag and red belt.
Military Jacket, One Day Without Shoes
Despite the no-shoes mandate, many of the volunteers at the recent One Day Without Shoes charity event still dressed quite fashionably. Military jackets continue to be a great transitional option each spring, a practical outer layer worn here with a Marc by Marc Jacobs bag and striped sailor top.
Sailor Stripes, Brooklyn Flea Williamsburg
Here’s how guys can work sailor stripes for spring – bold, vibrant and crisp. I also like how the white soles of his sneakers (intentionally?) match the white tires of his Moth bike.
