Jump Into Summer With This Cute Jumpsuit

This stellar jumpsuit was perfect to wear today. The blue stripes went perfectly with the bright blue sky.
The spread v neckline and cap sleeves allow for a very airy feel, as does the lightweight fabric. The capri legs add to the summer feel, and the ties at the bottom create a nice detail. Of course thong flip flops are perfect for this outfit, but it can also be dressed up with a wedge sandal. The wide, off white belt is a great way to separate the top and bottom, and creates a great hourglass silhouette.

Off The Shoulder Maxi Dress

This is an amazing dress. The swooping, off the shoulder neckline allows this young woman to show off her toned shoulders. The loose fitting bloused top, with long sleeves and elastic waist create a relaxed look from this maxi dress. The pattern is busy, but looks great in red and tan, two colors that go extremely well together. The round sunglasses and white Louis Vuitton bag are great accessories, which help to give a dress with a lot of character, even more.

The Classic Gentleman

This gentleman has an extraordinarily clean look. From his hair down to his shoes there is nothing that seems out of place. The light grey blazer and white button down are perfect items for staying formal in the Spring and Summer months. The dark blue, plaid dress pants are amazing, and are cuffed just above his black leather shoes with blue soles. The blue pocket square brings the entire outfit together and, along with the umbrella, makes this man look very classy.

Layers, Louis, & Leopard

This ensemble has a lot of layers to it, beginning with a collarless trench in a muted plaid pattern. The trench has three quarter sleeves allowing for the jean jacket underneath to show through. The standard blue denim jean jacket, with the bottom three buttons undone, reveals a sliver of her black shirt. Her legs are covered by a pair of faux leather leggings, underneath a short bronze skirt. Her shoes are outstanding, and really stand out from the outfit. Their leopard print and multi-strap design definitely make them show stoppers.

A Ruffled Flower

Even the Today show is raving about floral prints for this season. This woman sports a lovely Spring dress with spaghetti straps, a deep v neckline and a tiered ruffle skirt. The light coloring is perfect for reflecting the heat of the day and goes extremely well with the white leather of her wedges and the ivory, weaved leather handbag. Her flowing blonde curls are the perfect compliment for this outfit, making her look elegant and angelic.

The Young Writer

This weekend was the famous Outdoor Art Exhibit in Washington Square Park. This young writer sat on a bench, enjoying the weather and the festivities around him. He has a very artsy style, with black skinny jeans and black All Star high tops. His vertical striped button down adds a bit of color and the bowler hat adds a nice touch of vintage appeal.

Navajo Chic

I am a sucker for Native American art, and as such this dress, with its Navajo pattern, really catches my fancy. The boat neck reveals her defined collar bone, and the mid thigh length skirt shows off her crossed legs. The peep toe booties, with wooden platform and heel compliment the skirt’s length, and keep the natural feel of the outfit. The blown out hairstyle also looks natural and great with the dress and big hoop earrings.

Black & White; Edgy & Elegant

This is an edgy, yet feminine look. The white ruffle dress with black piping has a feminine and clean style about it. The mid thigh cut and ruffles add a fun and flirty look to the dress. The black leather motorcycle jacket has an edgy Rock n’ Roll vibe, and goes very well with the black piping on the dress. The black leather, lace up sandals go well with the both of them. Her neon green toe nail polish is a hidden burst of color to this black and white outfit.

Memorial Day Weekend Business Casual

This is another great Spring and Summer look. The outfit has a formal appearance, with casual accessories. The white, silk button down is very airy and soft, and looks great with the ivory vest on top of it. The slight difference in color, allows these two items to go really well together, without looking like one single piece. The dark blue capri pants have a formal, yet relaxed feel to them, and the button tab around the calf adds a nice detail. The gold thong sandals and Ray Ban aviators make it easy to withstand the heat and still look good in this outfit.

 

The Floral Photographer

Today was not the best day to be outside, but this young photographer took to the Washington Square fountain to stay cool. Her navy blue dress is adorned with a baby blue and green floral print. Around her neck she has a worn leather shoulder bag and a Nikon 35mm camera, two vintage pieces. The bright yellow sun hat is decorated with flower blossoms on the hat band, and contrasts her dark hair nicely.
