Taja’s sister bought her that intriguing pin during a journey to India. The image on the brooch is of a Hindu holy man.
I was contacted by the uber-popular Russian fashion website Look At Me a few weeks ago about running a feature about my street style work in Chicago and during New York Fashion Week. The editor chose the photos she liked best from my website. It’s very difficult for me to choose favorites (like a mother and her children!), so often times I let journalists pick the photos.

City Looks: Chicago and New York
By: Lisa Kologreeva
Chicago Streetstyle Scene – another blog about street style in Chicago heading City Looks to the bows with the New York Fashion Week.
My name is Amy Creyer, I am 25 years old. I’m studying politics and management in the fashion industry.
Street style shoot only eight months, but I can say that during that time I was really grown as a photographer. Fashion has always been my passion, but the pictures I started in June last year, when started a blog of your own. In Chicago, people dress more relaxed. I mean that they are experts in luxury, whose role in the understanding of many very low. Chicagoans are not flashy outfits rather simple. Much attention is paid to good fabric, cut, detail and quality.
On the shootings did not occur to me anything unusual. But once, when I walked through the city, the famous Chicago-based pianist stopped his car and praised my Mongolian fur.*
Among the favorite blogs Mr. Newton, 21 Arrondissement, Street Peeper, The Man Repeller, Latterstyle. I’ve seen of their authors, they are all wonderful people. Browse these sites every day.
