STREET STYLE: Williamsburg Pool Party


What: Jelly presents the Pool Parties-
Featuring Trail of Dead, Health, & The Black Lips
Where: East River State Park,
On the water at North 8th and Kent, Williamsburg, Brooklyn

The free 3rd annual summer concert series in Williamsburg is happening! There will be 5 more concerts, every Sunday, throughout August! All the cool kids flock to the waterside to keep cool, check out cool bands, and of course, check out one another! I caught these lovely ladies looking very W'burg chic in the 21+ beverage area. With their vintage-inspired looks and American Apparel duds these girls rocked out and despite the heat, they kept it looking cool.

GO SEE: Model As Muse: Embodying Fashion

Where: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, NYC
When: May 6-August 9

If you get a chance to go to the Met soon, I would definitely recommend seeing the special exhibit, Model As Muse: Embodying Fashion. The amazing fashion display plays tribute to many famous models that have paved the path to today's industry standards. The exhibition was sponsored by Marc Jacobs and Conde Nast. I loved walking back in time with each room of the exhibit, popular supermodels dressed in the hottest looks of that decade. On a personal note, I saw a Sports Illustrated cover with Paulina Porizkova; my mother named me after her during her height of popularity in the 1980's. The impact of these supermodels in the world of fashion is undeniable and it was great to be able to appreciate all of these beautiful women who helped create designers most unforgettable looks.















STREET STYLE: Summerstage Music Festival

What: The Chester French/Q-Tip Concert
Where: Rumsey Playfield, Central Park, NYC

These cool kids all made it out to enjoy a beautiful summer Saturday in the park with awesome music! Breezy, colorful sundresses are a natural go to when it's hot out and these girls rocked it, (literally too)! Hats, cut-off denim shorts and rompers were also easy, chic pieces that helped fans stay cool. Chester French played a great set and even when the announcer came on to inform people the blankets had to go because more people were waiting in line to get in the venue, the crowd kept it's cool and let the good times roll.















Summerstage in Central Park is happening all summer long-

BAD BITCH ALERT: Rihanna is HOT!!

First of all, let me declare my love for Rihanna's style- the girl is fierce, (let's disregard all of that beat-down stuff) She is such a cute, young diva. I love the pasties!! What a clever idea- especially under a gorgeous black blazer- I give you 2 thumbs up, and way to celebrate your freedom, girl!

STREET STYLE: Michael Jackson Tribute

I spotted this man on Ludlow in the Lower East Side this morning. I couldn't resist asking for a photo. His look is seriously sharp, coordinated, and patriotic. He is sporting a Michael Jackson tribute t-shirt, over a white button-up with a summer blazer on! I also love the way he has tied in his Obama campaign tote to match the colors in the shirt!! He even struck the Michael pose for me that is on the t-shirt!!! So perfect!!!



By the way, hope you had a Happy 4th of July- I thought this picture still gave quite the red, white, and blue impression!
