Blondes in Stripes

I’ve been debating the merits of black and white striped jeans lately…I would definitely do vertical stripes but he’s skinny enough to get away with the horizontal…

#FF friends of StyleDefinedNYC 002: Effie Liu

We admit it. We’ve been fans of Effie Liu for awhile now. Yes, she has the best pink hair anyone could ask for, but she also has infectious energy and crazy talent. So obvi this made her at the top of our list for our Instagram project. In her own words, this is what she’s been up to recently:
Basically, I do the sweet lady vox and hype girling in a very funky electro / new jack swing band called French Horn Rebellion. Bebe Panthere is my funky-punky solo project that is currently in the works, but you should be on the look out for it by the end of the year! :)

Be sure to follow her on instagram @bebepanthere

Oh Olivia!

oliviaSS
A fur vest over a short sleeved top is one fashion forward way to deal with this unusually cool spring. Love the MiuMiu heels and the Jill Stuart bag. But love even more that the amazing metallic green color of the bag is actually fabric paint that Olivia used to turn a blah beige bag into an accessory that really pops!

Pencil Skirt & Sneakers

pencil_sneakers
I love this skirt. The sneakers? Well I think they’re the kind with hidden wedge heels which is a trend I just can’t get behind. But to be fair, they have a certain logic if you’re going to be running around the city all day.

Badass Overalls. REALLY

furOverall
I have a confession to make: I have a love/hate relationship with a particular clothing item. The Overall. When I was 6 years old my grandmother got me and my favorite cousin who was a year younger matching railroad striped overalls. Riding around the neighborhood on our Big Wheels in our overalls we were seriously bad ass… as I got older girls over the age of 12 wearing overalls looked like they were trying too hard to look innocent/sexy –especially when they wore them with little bikini tops which is a look that induces major rolling of eyes by yours truly!
So when I see someone who is wearing them in a seriously bad ass way, my 6 year old self not only approves but secretly wonders if I could do it too…I don’t know. Either way: leather overalls with a fur? Brilliant. Really.
