People like Jasmine are my primary source of inspiration – the kind of people who just don’t give a fuck and dress however they damn well please. This is the best part of street-style. I can’t tell you how happy I was to randomly spot a woman like this in the Gold Coast, out front of Barneys no less.
Military-inspired fashion is a look that will always be in style. Adina’s dress captures the best of army chic with her olive green flowing dress with cute military pocket detailing. The folded leather belt has gone from a quirky Michael Kors flourish to a full-on mainstream trend.
A few weeks ago my friend Megan Weinerman and I went to an Army Navy store on the North Side and found some amazing pieces for our wardrobes. I still haven’t had a chance to type up the story (sorry Megan!) but I promise lots of exciting clandestine cell phone pictures by the end of this week.
Nikki was an exciting find in Chicago’s Gold Coast neighborhood. Her bold red lip, double-pierced nose, and vintage print top equalled complete perfection. It also gave me a great opportunity to take
several detail shots, including close-ups of her super on-trend velvet loafers. Click below to see more photos, including a full-length shot.

I was inspired by my friend Adam Sinding over at 21 Arrondissement,
who is known for this style of blogging. I always give credit where
credit is due when I am directly influenced by another creative person.
