I met Christine of the fashion blog Le City Kitty at New York Fashion Week. Christina’s edgy street-smart look and visible tattoos caught my eye nearly immediately. I also thought she had on the Chloe docs, the ones I’ve wanted FOREVER, but she actually made my day when she told me they were Jeffrey Campbells. I found them online here so you can pick yourself up a pair if you wish. The huge rubber platform makes them very stylish winter boots. They’re perfect for stepping over the impending slush that’s soon to coat Chicago’s sidewalks.
I know that my readers follow at least a few other street-style blogs in addition to this one. At least I hope you do! Candice Lake and All The Pretty Birds (by Tamu McPherson) are two fabulous street-style blogs run by talented female photographers, so if you don’t follow them already you should start today.
I thought it might be fun to play a guessing game. Can anyone identify whose gorgeous gams these are?
For years I’ve admired candid streetstyle photography and consider it the highest level of the art form. The stakes are obviously much higher because there’s the risk of missing the shot. With posed photography, unless you’re a complete amateur it’s nearly impossible to mess up the photo if you understand the fundamentals of lighting and composition.
