When I first spotted Ashley I was intrigued by her Jumper, first I thought is was denim but I asked and felt the material and found it was something much softer and light weight. I like the western inspired fringes. She found this garment at Rags-A-GoGo, which is a great thrift store on 14th street between 7th & 8th Ave.

I loved Bre's look but what really grabbed my eye was this ring she got from AJ's Design Studio (65 Bleecker Street)... I love the separation and isolation of the precious stones.... It looks like a good one of a kind investment!
Lucia is a 23 year old student from Denmark who works for "COVER" which is Danish Magazine. She LOVES Alexander Wang. She rocked this fringed top from TOPSHOP and these acid wash shorts from American Apparel, and Chloe shoes. I can tell comfort was a key rule to her style....
I stopped Marie because she reminded me of Kate Moss, which in turn is her fashion icon. This 18 year old student loves Balmain and Stella McCartney. I liked her black thigh high tights and open toe sandals. I really like the skin she showed... a great way to be covered yet very sexy!
This Woman I saw in passing, but she was in a rush and I really wanted to capture her for the blog... I really like the design and details of her shirt dress and how she paired it with this gold belt and these multi-color metallic heels....
Kayan is a Jamaican raised Bronx Native who at the age of 21 is a well-known Spoken word Artist and full time student. She lives by the Quote "Are yon an image or a Reflection?" She finds great clothes in Forever 21 and Bebe, and she looks to Yves saint Laurant as the Epitome of Top Fashion. Rihanna and Solange are some Fashion Icons of Kayan and I definitely saw some Solange inspiration in her outfit. Her "Mister Shoes" ankle boots are great and I loved how she paired it with a flirty skirt and this custom made tank (do you see the buttons???).. LOVE LOVE LOVE
Here are some links to her Poetry:

Aba is a 24 year old Free Spirit from the UK spending some time in New York. She lives by the Quote "Do You", and her Favorite store is Primark (which is a great Store out of London). I particularly loved her Fringed sandals from top shop(a few seasons old now but still great).
Whitney(21) is a NY actress who looks to Kate Moss as a Fashion Icon. I loved her Fringed peep toe boots from Bebe, It was a great yet sexy addition to her Rocker look.
Lauren(22) is a full time student who finds Sienna Miller to be one of the leading Women in fashion and Style. Lauren paired this Men's inspired shirt with a pair of shorts to show off her long sexy legs and made sure not to cover those Yves Saint Laurent Shoes.
These two where ready for what ever the night had in store for them...
Celebrity Style
Rihanna Looked stunning in this comfortable yet sexy in this dress... She really has a great style team! I need to be a part of that soon.... Rihanna holla at me... you need me on your team! LOL!

Stay tuned to see some more women next week!
