For Thakoon

This photo is for Thakoon, whom I met Saturday night at the greatest party of my entire life. This photo was taken two days earlier at Ikram Goldman’s cocktail reception for her “Legends of Fashion” award. To protect their privacy I won’t reveal these ladies’ names, but they are clients of Ikram’s wearing Thakoon’s famous huaraches.

Marcus

Marcus is one of these Chicago kids who is always impeccably dressed. I was so delighted to run into him the other day on Rush Street. It’s very important to me that all of my street-style photos are unproduced. Authenticity is the driving force behind my website so I am always happy when I randomly see my pals on the streets! (Special thank you to Marcus’ friends for allowing me to steal him away for a quick shot)

Doesn’t he look killer in his vintage Yves Saint Laurent blazer from the late 1960s?

For Jason Wu

This photo is for Jason Wu, whom I had the pleasure of meeting last night at Ikram Goldman’s award ceremony. We had a lovely conversation about how excited designers become when they see their designs on street-style blogs.
I knew I was saving this photo from NYFW for a good reason! 😉
