LA Kidz
The seriously (I suspect) over-hyped Punk Exhibit opens for Members Preview today at the MET and on Thursday for everyone else. It’s the sort of thing that got me all excited when I first heard about it – months and months and months ago – but now I’m kind of dreading it because I don’t know how it can possibly live up to the hype. Which is all kind of irrelevant at the moment for me because I’m out of town so can’t make it up there yet anyways. In the meantime here is a recent transplant from LA (on the left) who looks like she could be a model for Punk Barbie if there was such a thing.

Margo near Milk Studios
I saw Margo on the street and we were both on our way to Milk Studios. Both her super high platform shoes and big hair add to her “larger than life” style. Mostly I’m not a fan of 100% sheer skirts but it works with her overall look (let’s call her the exception to the rule) and I love how her tights match her bunny earred cell phone cover!

Gold YSL and kimono-as-coat
I almost never take photos on Broadway. In fact I tend to avoid Broadway at all costs so as not to be trampled on by a herd of tourists. But sometimes it’s unavoidable. And at one of these times I encountered Victor and his fabulous YSL bag which j’adore. Also love the kimono as coat. I figured the ensemble was worth having to deal with the busy background instead of the traditional “oh look this person is in NYC and no one else exists!” that is the trend of streetstyle photographers.

In a simple silk shift dress and Jeffrey Campbell boots she’s ready for anything
I love dresses that you can simply thrown on and go out in. This dress is a perfect example of that. It has a loose cut but the asymmetrical seams keeps it from being boring. And her Jeffrey Campbell boots are beloved by city girls everywhere.

These boots are made for walking…
Yesterday I irritated my IT Band playing tennis. And no, it’s not a musical group, it’s a tendon that runs up the side of your leg. So I’m going to get serious about doing exercises to strengthen my legs and ass. (apparently a weak, sad ass like mine is a major issue with IT Band problems) Am I doing this so I can continue to play tennis? Well, yes, I do love my tennis outfits…but more importantly if I don’t get it better I won’t be able to wear fabulous boots like Alexandre here is wearing. And with New York Fashion Week mere weeks away…I best sign off and get to the gym!

Tibi or not to be…the perfect little black dress
I know this is wildly, wickedly over-exposed. But I like it. It makes it all about the dress. This is a beautiful black metallic jacquard sleeveless dress from Tibi and I’m debating wearing it to a friend’s wedding in the city next week…though probably not with the boots -they’ll debut at NYFW!
