Navy Romper With Belt, Prince Street

Aurelie Claudel

Anyone willing to bare her legs in yesterday’s 80-degree weather brought out the shorts, especially rompers. This model-esque woman in NoLita sported a navy blue short shorts romper with a wide caramel-colored belt, black sandals and cross-body bag, perfectly mixed and accessorized.

Absolutely adored her wedge heels with buckles on Prince Street yesterday.

Graphic Print Mini, By the F Station

Long, flowing maxi skirts may be all the rage this spring, but let’s face it: if a girl’s got the legs, why give up the mini? Here, a graphic print mini gets paired with a cropped black biker jacket, long white cardigan and black tights – the quintessential day-to-evening outfit for the Lower East Side.

Natalia Vadianova at Louis Vuitton

Natalia Vadianova exited the Louis Vuitton show in a gorgeous black velvet coat embellished with silk and sequin lapels. The motorcycle boots are such a departure they look almost accidental – but keep in mind this was the last day of the whole fashion month – high heels were a tall order.

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.

White Shirtdress, Outside Viktor & Rolf

Elena Perminov

I never get tired of exquisitely tailored white shirts or shirtdresses – like this one on a model off duty in the Tuileries.

Update: She is Elena Perminov.

Elisa Nalin Colorblocking at Sonia Rykiel

Indeed, chic stylist Elisa Nalin drew the attention of Craig Arend of Altamira and many other photogs this past fashion month. Outside the Sonia Rykiel show, she tackled the tricky job of colorblocking with ease. The colors may be wildly vibrant, but by repeating the purple, yellow and red in several pieces, she applies a Mondrian-like logic to the look.

Blush Jacket, Outside Louis Vuitton

Loved this gorgeous blush pink jacket outside the Louis Vuitton show. It’s the perfect color for this spring – and the sunglasses are just right.

Two Looks, Brooklyn Flea Williamsburg

The new Brooklyn Flea on the Williamsburg waterfront has attracted a huge crowd with its great shopping, food trucks and beautiful city views. On these women at the first Flea, I loved the denim jumpsuit on the right, especially paired with an orange bag and big bangles. On the left, sailor stripes look even better with a toggle coat.

Think Pink, Lincoln Center Plaza

Maybe it’s just because of Reese Witherspoon’s wedding dress, but the color pink seems to be on the brain for a lot of fashionable people these days. If you buy nothing else this season, let it be a brightly colored bag like this one – though the gorgeous ring and bracelet aren’t too shabby either.

70s Jeans and Silk Button-Down, Outside Prabal Gurung

Here’s another example of ’70s jeans looking great in real life. Note how she keeps it from getting too hippie-dippy by wearing the jeans with a silk button-down blouse, tailored coat and structured bag. The loose topknot keeps it playful.

Girl in Khakis, Williamsburg

This girl’s look was so cool I don’t even know where to begin. It’s just effortless. I especially liked the button-fly khakis.

Fox-Print Dress and Wide-Brimmed Hat, Outside Prabal Gurung

Another great interpretation of 70s redux. Love the floppy wide-brimmed hat, and the fox print on this dress is like something out of The Ice Storm. But topping the whole look off with fuchsia lipstick puts it firmly in spring 2011.

Addendum: The dress is Opening Ceremony X Deyrolle.

Navajo Cloak, Greene Street

It’s the end of March, and temperatures in New York are still below freezing. The only solution to this scenario may be to start dressing for fall 2011, when Navajo patterns like this one will still be very much in style. The American Southwest played a big part in collections by Isabel Marant and Filson (not to mention this spring’s Rodarte x Opening Ceremony collection), and it looks really fresh on the city streets.

Girl in Khaki Pants, Outside Louis Vuitton

A lot of young people come to the Paris shows just to stand outside and be part of the mix. I thought this girl had great personal style with the khakis, the lace-up boots, the floral shirt under a thick cableknit cardigan and the necklace that is actually just an ordinary housekey on a chain.
