Look Through the Lens: Street Style at New York Fashion Week

September 22, 2014

With a perfectly stuffed bag filled with my closet’s best and New York’s comfortable fall weather, it was time to face the streets of New York Fashion Week S/S 2015. Although I had expected New York’s best dressed to be confined to the Lincoln Center where NYFW took place, bold fashion statements filled the city. As an Austinite in the Big Apple everything seemed magical, but nothing more magical than the stylish people. Chic black and white looks, florals with stripes, and tennis shoes paired with anything black could be spotted up and down the urban streets. Fashion week only occurs two times a year, making it a short window of opportunity for fashion enthusiasts to express their personal style. Flip through the gallery to see the looks that caught this fashion lover's eye.

July 3, 2014

With a hint of an accent and a whole lot of bleach blonde hair, it is no surprise that Norwegian blogger Emilie Frøyland is just as sweet as the desserts inside Royer’s Pie Haven. It is a hot Friday afternoon and Frøyland is wearing a black leather skirt and a navy striped blouse. Her blue nails reflect her blue eyes, and she models a pair of white pumps and a black Prada bag. With wide eyes and a big smile, the blogger proclaims her love for bags: “I definitely have a purse obsession!”
