Fashion Week Beauties The Inspirations of Street Style

Flipping through the many images from fashion week, I found some great street styles from my favorite website, Refinery29, and I have finally gotten around to add this to my blog.


Vanessa Jackman in an essential cool ensemble of black leather pants, camel classic coat, a retro-inspired pair of crushed red velvet boots and a must-have red clutch.  This look is classic but on the edge of rocker chic with a see-thru blouse, black bustier and a long scripted silver pendant and to top off this old style rocker chic a black fedora hat.  It’s a modern twist on the beatnik style.


Ramya Giangola tweaks this preppy style of a sailor’s stripe sweater, navy pea coat with a cropped pant leg, black rockin’ oxford heels and a chain-trim black leather clutch.


Lindsey Calla adds a pop of pink to this tone on tone look with the bold magenta sweater coordinated with the classic trench coat, tan ankle length pants, mile high mink-colored platform heels and a chic leopard handbag.  I love these woman that dare to wear the socks with heels – I, personally, love the look and have done so a many times.


Kate Ciepluch brings the look and feel of bohemian chic with a side of California together with an elongated pair of silky black pants, a classic grey merino sweater and a luxurious shearling and leather off white jacket.  This is a great look for a casual weekend or attending a fashion show.  I just wish the pants were a little shorter or she had higher heels on.  I hate to ruin a beautiful pair of pants.


Christina Cardona is such a perfect New York look.  It’s comfortable yet stylish in a way that only New Yorkers know how to dress.  It’s a look that says “I don’t really care how I look but I really do.”  She has got the classic Ray Ban sunglasses that has been everywhere is season, a black motorcycle jacket (that I would love to acquire), a big slouchy sweater and a maxi skirt.  She really knows how to work a look with lots of layers.  She has the perfect height and attitude to work the slouchy sweater with the maxi skirt.  As a petit bohemian, I would be lost in this look.


From APC Denim Party, during fashion week, I loved this look – very Parisen chic.  I adore the accessory choices of the plaid scarf, modern gold chain and the cute furry black hat.  She took a pretty basic outfit of black pants, a white shirt and a grey boyfriend jacket and made it very unique, something to learn from, sometimes the accessories can make the outfit.


Anther street style that I feel in love with is this blue on blue mastering.  She has the best bohemian look so far that I have seen for all of fashion week.  From the top she wears a 70’s inspired blue floppy hat, a navy/white cape (beautiful patterning) and light blue sweater, a denim boyfriend shirt, dark rinse denim skin-tight jeans and radical pair of cornflower blue platform booties.  And her accessories are simple but perfect with a giant cocktail ring on her index finger and a simple leather clutch.  It’s completely stylish, unique but something comfortable to wear – something I would love to own! 

Winter Kate Jasmine Kimono Jacket, $582.73; G Star Chambray Shirt, $161.19; Diesel Wool Mix Deconstructed Cardigan, $179.30; ASOS '70s Floppy Felt Hat, $44.83; ASOS TIAMARIE Platform Lace Up Shoe Boots, $69.93; ASOS Mist Indigo Skinny jeans, $53.79 - All from ASOS.com

Hope you enjoyed the inspirations!  After looking at all of these inspiration beauties, I know that I will be acquiring over the next few months a statement clutch (everyone has been seen with them), some fun new accessories (because they make the outfit) and I am on a quest for a vintage jacket – similar to the one of love of miss blue bohemian but to fit my personality.
