Mens Sandals

if I was a guy I would be all over these.... Similars here and here (on sale).

Tropical Prints

Less than tribal and far less than the usual trendy animal prints, a huge tropical print is still a rarity in New York for young women.

I think there's room to change that while we still have weeks of summer sun to go.  I mean look at this top/skirt combo found online.

Tropical prints just as delish:

Suited

The loosened tie...the tattoo.  For some reason the words 'post interview' came to mind when I saw him.

Bright Eyes

Ellen is wearing a dress from her own clothing line, flat sandals, a vintage bag and Karen Walker sunglasses.

Coloured frames are the simplest way to brighten up any outfit.

Tribal Prints

The top was made by him and the turban is a scarf he wrapped around his head.   The jeans are Forever21.  His oxford shoes and bag are from Urban Outfitters.

The jewellery is from various vintage shops including Philadelphia, New York and DC.

Soho

Perusing one of my favourite street vendors in Soho.   Check out what she's seeing here.

Her bag is Rebecca Minkoff.

Denim

Wes in the Brooklyn flea.  How perfect is his denim jacket?

Earth Tones

Loving the subtle neon flash from the sandals (similars by Dolce Vita).

Get simple summer dresses here (check out the sale section too).

The Bright Accessory

Sarah is wearing shorts by Topshop and Doc Marten boots.  Her black sleeveless shirt is by Janes Closet on Grande & Metropolitan.

I didn't ask about her denim shirt but saw some good ones here.  I bought two myself (thrifted) the same day this picture was taken.

ps. How cute do her purple headphones look with all black?  Urban Outfitters carry a bunch of colourful retro style ones.

Black Summer Chic

Anna's dress is by Easy Eye (overseas).  Her bag is by DKNY.

An effortless use of black in the height of summer.
