Bright Idea: Anne V., West Village, February 2021

It was great to see model Anne V. just strolling through the neighborhood yesterday. Even better, she is wearing one of my favorite trends of this winter: bright puffers! If you’re going to be stuck wearing a puffer coat for this seemingly endless cold weather, you might as well make it something cheerful and colorful. This one is Balenciaga, which arguably spearheaded the trend, but there are plenty of colorful thrifted or vintage puffer coats to be had as well. Thanks for stopping, Anne V.

Tiffany Reid and Nicole Chapoteau at Hugo Boss FW2020

Loved the Italian colors on Tiffany Reid and Nicole Chapoteau in Milan. Look for more of these long leather or faux leather coats this spring – they’re so versatile and great in many types of weather.

Gloomy Day in Paris, February 2020

Sorry, Emily in Paris, but this is what true French-girl style looks like. It may seem thrown together, but the styling is great – an oversized wool trench with the belt cinched just so, the carefully arranged cross body bag, and shiny thick-soled leather boots, perfect for walking through the city on a blustery day.

NYC Boots, November – December 2020: Uptown Edition

Another one for Footwear Plus: boots in the city in late fall and winter. This one took me to the Upper East Side during prime holiday shopping season, which was interesting. Despite the closure of shopping anchor Barneys [crosses self], women and a few men are still dressing up to walk up and down Madison and Fifth.

Zendaya at NYFW, February 2014

I love looking through old photos and finding people I didn’t know or recognize at the time – like a baby-faced Zendaya at New York fashion week in 2014. There used to be a lot more stars at fashion shows before it became standard practice to pay celebrities to attend. Now few of them will come without being paid, it seems! Time was, they would come just for the fun of it.

That particular winter was the peak of the color-blocking trend, which has since passed. But look for more bright yellow this winter and spring – this cheerful shade is the Pantone color of 2021.

IRL: Leigh Lezark at Jason Wu SS2021

Only one man dared have a live runway show this NY Fashion Week: Jason Wu. It was great to see some of his 36 invitees, culled down to a few true New Yorkers. Leigh Lezark was one of them.

WFH Fits: Tiffany Hsu at Gabriela Hearst FW2020

Matchy-matchy is cool again, especially when it’s a matching sweatshirt and sweatpants! Tiffany Hsu dressed hers up with heels and a Bottega Veneta bag. While there’s no need to do that at home, the chunky necklace is key.

Elaine Welteroth at Coach FW2020

Elaine Welteroth is such a star right now but still remembered a few of us street style photographers from her Teen Vogue days. Super stylish, and super nice too! Her Instagram feed is also inspiring in these trying times – one to follow if you want some uplifting content.
