style inspiration: NYFW street shots

It's hard to figure out what I love more about fashion week--the runway shows or the street style shots posted by my favorite photographers! I love seeing how "real" (sometimes hard to consider those that are attending the shows I'm drooling over real, but you know..) people dress, in real weather, in real life (again, eh...)--especially since they are often so in tune they're already flirting with the trends on the runway. Take this look...

I love the maxi dressing for winter that is all over the fall runways right now. But I love even more the absence of black. Dressing in nudes, whites, and greys when the rest of the street is all black is so, so refreshing--something I need to try!

And as for this stylish lady? I love the single splash of color on the hottest accessory from the men's fall shows.

Ok, back to NYFW coverage. What are your favorite shows so far? I'm compulsively clicking and saving. Favorites to come!

weather gods: i need my fall

Something crazy is going on--the weather is fluctuating in New York between 40 and mid-60's, rainy and so-sunny-I'm-sweating-with-my-holiday-latte. Luckily, Refinery29 showed off more of Mr. Newton's amazing street style photographs last week so I could live vicariously through them when the temperature creeped upwards. My favorites...

I love the unexpected rust color of that overcoat, the playfulness of light, printed scarves paired with a heavy fur, and the continuation of shorts-as-daywear with thick as hell tights. I'm in Florida for the Thanksgiving holiday, but you can bet I'll be mimicking these looks when I return to 40-degree weather again in NYC on Sunday!
