The Man on the Street




He might as well be the man that started it all. 80-year-old New York Times photographer has been on the streets of New York since the '70s, taking photos of people and what we now call street style. Read up on his life and vision as written in the New Yorker. I hope to be inspired and appreciate fashion more through his eyes and works. A documentary entitled, Bill Cunningham New York was released this year. 

Throughout the years he has classified two groups of New Yorkers—the fashionable people, whose style changes more rapidly than that of the masses, and the truly creative ones, whose style, while outrĂ©, in its theatricality never really changes at all—“On the Street”

Where do you stand?

Daily Inspiration: Long and Sheer





I have been eyeing on this type of skirts since I first saw them last year. It seems to be Abbie Lee's favorite street style or off the runway look. Chanel is definitely on board when we saw it in one of their Fall collections and catalogue. Topshop and Forever21 has these skirts on very reasonable prices but of course still stylish and chic. 

I know summer is not over yet but the unbearable heat for the past weeks makes you miss the cold and windy days. May it be chilly or not, I believe the main concern on puling off this look is to not get arrested,  appear tasteful and well put together or at least not offend people with more conservative likings.

Love it or hate it?

XOXO,
Marga
