Extremely Stylish Notary

There is a certain sophistication about this outfit. The red blazer is a statement piece, and would normally hog the attention, when not part of such an ensemble. The white blouse underneath the blazer is fastened closed with knot buttons, but the collar is left open. The shorts are another eye-catching piece. Their angled black and white stripes create bold lines, and the drawstring closure adds a relaxed feel. The sheer black stockings give the leg a uniform tan look and work wonders with the black stripes of the shorts and the contrast toes of the ballet flats.

Black Border Between Colors

A colorful outfit is always enjoyable. Not only does it make you stand out from the crowd, but it also makes you feel and look warmer. Sometimes two strong colors don’t converge well, even though they go together. This woman has taken this into consideration and divided the two colorful pieces with a thick black belt. The belt works as a buffer zone, hiding the junction where to green blouse and yellow skirt come together. The black belt, blazer and stockings also give the colors some contrast from which to stand out.

Leather Clad Biker Chic

These are great pants. You get the look of leather with the stretch of leggings, making them easy to get into and easy to wear. They are tucked into a pair of thick black wool socks, somewhat resembling 80's leg warmers. The boots have a biker chick feel, with their black leather, buckle strap, and chunky heel. The Jacket is reminiscent of a varsity jacket, but has a figure flattering tight, waist length cut. The black leather sleeves tie in to the rest of the outfit and are elongated by black sweatshirt material, same as the hood.

Business Woman Classic

This is a very office friendly look. The Navy blazer goes extremely well with the light blue dress shirt underneath it. The white pants finish the transition from dark to light. On the bottom the color scheme comes full circle with the navy heels. Great color interaction in this outfit.

Fur, Feathers & Fun

I could not pass this opportunity up. I saw her across the street and immediately rushed that way. I think it was the red skinny jeans that caught my eye, but the smile was definitely the magnet that pulled me in.

The sneaker wedges are incredible. The red on them matches the pants, but the design alone is definitely urban, with a touch of class.

The combination of a long black wrap, black undershirt, and black vest creates subtle layers that can be seen contrasting with the bright red pants. The vest is an exquisite item as it is not only fur (or faux fur) but is embellished with brown and black feathers, allowing it to stand out from the all black items underneath it.

The Old Tough Guy Look

There is something about a popped collar that gives off a cool and cocky appearance. Maybe it is its affiliation with Arthur "The Fonz" Fonzarelli and James Dean, that has created that reputation, but it still sticks to this day. This man popped his collar on his blue trench, and even though he is carrying a Toys "R" Us bag, he still looks tough (and stylish). Underneath his trench peaks a pink button down shirt. His straight leg jeans are crisp and cuffed at the bottom, leaving them to fall perfectly onto his brown leather shoes.

Red The Color Of Desire, Black The Color Of Despair

Red and black are two colors that mean completely different things.  Red is associated with love and passion.  Black is associated with death and darkness.  Yet, when the two colors are put together in one outfit, they compliment each other phenomenally.

This young lady used black items to bolster her bright red dress. The black leggings give a strong contrast to the lower half of the dress, whereas the black motorcycle jacket helps to narrow and emphasize the top of the dress. The orange handbag is a great addition of a bright color, but does not take away from the red dress.

Here, this girl flipped the outfit around and used red as an accent. Her black boots, skirt and overcoat are fine for the rainy day it was, but to add some life to her outfit, she added red leggings. They play really well, creating a strong accent, and breaking up an all black outfit. A definite eye-catcher.

Submerge Yourself In Comfort

Everyone just wants to stay wrapped up in their bed on a cold grey day. When living in New York City, you have so many ways to take advantage of a rainy day, staying in bed is a last resort. This young woman rolled out of bed, pulled together a comfortable outfit, and headed to her local beauty salon for a pedicure. Her long white tee and camouflage leggings scream comfort, but when paired with a black leather motorcycle jacket they gain a stylish appeal. The oversized scarf takes the place of the blanket when it comes to keeping you warm and cozy. Don't forget to take your flip flops with you when going for a pedicure, to let your nails dry on the walk back.

I really like her short cut, bleached blonde hair, as well as her nose ring, quite punk chic. The blue sweater cuffs on her jacket are also a nice touch.
