big fur hat: take 2

Clearly the big fur hat trend continues in Soho. Paisley is wearing one with ear flaps and keeping everything else in shades of grey. -Except the black bag that I find utterly intriguing…

Rethinking the Russian fur hat

I saw this girl half a block away. Or rather, I saw her hat, and it looked really really warm –and it reminded me how people always tell kids how much of their heat they lose through the top of their heads. And that this girl took it to heart! But the way she’s wearing it with skinny jeans and cropped motorcycle jacket is completely unexpected. And the furs around her shoulder complete this urban/fashion version of “the outdoorsy type”.

Add gloves for a dash of panache

Nothing wrong with the little black dress, but sometimes it’s nice to see another color –even a neutral like grey. (which is actually one of my favorite colors) I’m also intrigued by the elbow length gloves. I think gloves are starting to make a comeback as a fashion statement. Thoughts???

Damir Doma for a grey day

A while back I mentioned wanting to steal the style of one of my favorite musical groups, The Black Soft. Consider this look as being inspired by them! Having been disappointed recently at my options for simple tops for women I decided to look at some men’s clothing lines and have not been disappointed. This tunic/top is from the Damir Doma men’s collection. While they sell women’s clothing as well, I really responded to the cut and drape of this top and for me the versatility. It can work with leggings now or like a dress in the summer. Also wearing my Linda Farrow x Dries Van Noten sunglasses which really have become part of my winter uniform and work so well with the blue in my hair. (and a shout out to Shannon at Pimps & Pinups who is responsible for adding this color in my life. She is seriously the best!)

Little black dresses

Two girls in little black dresses. That’s the post. Need I say more?

Malcolm at the MET

I met my friend Malcolm Harris yesterday at the Temple of Dendur at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Since there is a wall of windows looking into Central Park it’s a great place to feel like you’re in the park without dealing with the weather. (and the Temple is pretty amazing as well!) But when you do have to eventually brave the elements it’s nice if you have an Yves Saint Laurent leather coat with fur collar for protection!

Ruching Madness

It’s always fun to see what everyone’s favorite gatekeeper Markus Kelleman is wearing. This is literally an explosion of ruching! But I do love these muppet inspired furs. Seriously. And the blonde brows. I have been considering doing this myself, except mine are hidden beneath bangs so it kind of loses the punch.

Under the influence [of] Colleen Nika

No, this isn’t a “Street Style” photo. It’s a photo of my friend Colleen taken by photographer Rankin. And I posted it here to entice you to check out my interview with her in Icons & Influencers. So what are you waiting for?

Claudia at End of Century

I shot Claudia Martinez Reardon in front of End of Century, a great boutique on the Lower East Side that also serves as an art gallery. Their upcoming show is “Would you like to have some ice-cream with my friend and me?” a site-specific installation by Edouard Nardon, curated by Claudia that will run from the 21st – February 15th.

And I wanted to show you a little better the necklace she is wearing: it’s the Royalty Collar by Martine Ali and it’s available at End of Century. Made of handcrafted chainmail I think it’s a really distinctive piece.

because baby it’s cold outside!

I didn’t post the last few days because I was on the road and didn’t have my photos on hand. And it was sad to get back to NYC to find it was only 17 degrees out (and with wind chill felt like 6!) So in honor of the frigid weather I thought I’d post a picture of this man who clearly knows that if you keep your head toasty the rest of you can stay properly stylish!
