Personal Style……Manhattan NYC……10-22-2009

You’ll notice that most of the people in our photos seem to have their own look.  A way working with all the elements of style to put a look together, for who they are.  They stand out.  A personal style is something to develop.  Following the fashion rags recommendations and trends will keep you looking good but you’ll just be another face in the crowd.  Another lemming running for the cliffs or in this case the cash register.  Take some time.  Find your look, one that works for you and wear it like you “own it.”

Fashion Lemmings.  These young women don’t look bad they just all look the same.  From the bags it probably wouldn’t hurt if at least one of them shopped at a different store.

 

Below are a few examples of New Yorkers who work there own personal style.

                 Black is everywhere but with the black on black print dress underneath plus the big scarf, biker boots and attitude she make it her own

        The hounds tooth trench is perfect with the riding style boots.  Then add the pop of the colored scarf and gloves setting off the red glasses.  Love it.

The tan coat and culotte skirt would be pretty conservative.  The burgundy hair, flat military type tall boots plus of course the one striped fingerless long glove move this look much more to the edge.  There is a contrast that is hard to ignore.

We’ve seen the trench and many more men are going with the big scare.  But adding the hat really makes you take notice.  The jury is still out on the shoes although they do get some attention.

 

And our personal style favorite Kate Lanphear.  She definitely “OWN’S IT”

Having been away from fashion for a very long time we have to admit that when these photos of Kate Lanphear were taken at the tents we had no idea who she was.  Just saw this amazing woman who had this great look and had to get her picture,  This look is pure Kate but very understated for her.  Google search her or see the link below for more pics of her.  She is amazing
