The Ideal and Minimal Glamour of Amina and Eleonora


 If I were in any snowy city environment right now I'd certainly be modeling myself after these ladies. Despite layering boxy coats and over-the-top furs they still manage to feel uniquely feminine and even quirky in some instances.

NYFW Street Style Success Stories

Is street style dead? Dude, I don't know. I know there are plenty of articles out there bashing the The Most Photographed people for wearing head-to-toe designer outfits in uninspiring ways, but to proclaim that street style is dead because only a few elite are uninspiring is pretty fucking naïve. As if the rest of us — the folks who get dressed up for jobs and things and also too give a shit about what we look like — are chopped liver. Shameful. I think there are plenty of problems with the business of blogging and remaining authentic, but it's certainly not mine, and therefore not my concern. In fact, when it comes to enjoying fashion month from the comfort of my computer at home I find even the train-wrecks and the sell outs inspiring as a cautionary tale for what not to be. So let the ever impractical Anna Dello Russos and the "OMG-so-busy, such-meetings" bloggers run around the globe, peacocking for the camera. I'll be here sipping my coffee/cocktail silently filling outfits I hate in my mind and publicly admiring the ones that I love here.

Street Style Porn: Masculine Feminine Style

 
 
 
I can tell you right now that I have a soft spot for every single one of these street style ladies. I've had them pooling on my desktop for a few days now and I'm finally able to see the bigger picture: they all balance the masculine and feminine pretty well. Except for one, which is just so blatant. Can you guess? The last one! I debated taking it out of this set because it was just so extreme and almost unwearable without looking like an angsty teen who chooses to wear Converse with their prom dresses (I did that!), but chose to leave it in anyway because it embodies some sort of bad ass notion of "je ne sais give a shit," and I'm in love with it.

Street Style Porn: NYFW

 via The Cut
Very much into: platinum hair,  monochrome layers, textures, and unexpected pops of color/quirky. Also, it must be noted how Emily Weiss has skyrocketed to editor of my must-read blog Into The Gloss, to total muse in fashion/beauty/instagram selfies/life?

NYFW / Beautiful Creatures: Co

I can't tell you how incredibly gorgeous these moody shots are of girls in braids and slouchy posture. It makes a girl never want to wear color anything again.
