LOVE: Street Peeper

There are some fashion or street style blogs that are a grave disappointment and wholly underwhelming (and overrated)- -this one, however, is my new favorite....and it's not just a favorite, it's a new obsession. Here are my favorites from the first 59 pages that I scanned through like a maniac. I apologize in advance if any of the images below are not from Street Peeper. I tend to collect so many images, that there is room for error.






























LOVE: Hats









Things that inspre me: Sex and the City

This is even more cliche and generic than my post about Jackie O having inspiring style. Oodles of ladies were inspired by the gals/fashion/lifestyles of the characters in Sex and the City. I've always thought it was funny that Sarah Jessica Parker kind of became a fashion icon after the show, when really, it seems that the show's stylist(s) should be the ones who received recognition. Anywho- -I spent many-a-night as a single gal drinking wine, cooking a meal-for-one and playing Sex and the City on my laptop in my old one-bedroom apartment. We all have favorite outfits, favorite episodes, there's really something for everyone in that show. This show is very nostalgic for me, and as such, I thought I should pay homage. Enjoy!

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE: Nick Wooster

I like fashion and I like men, but I am just seldom smitten with men's fashion. Sadly, it's just not as interesting as the way women dress and the fashion that's abundantly available to them. Nick Wooster, however, is the exception. He embodies the perfect combination of edgy, hard, chic, masculine. He looks to be of different ages, and from different localities depending on how he's put together his look on a given day. I am clearly failing at effectively articulating what I like about him, and for someone who is never at a loss for words- -that speaks to the impact Nick Wooster has on me. Here are a few of my favorite looks (that my boyfriend will unknowingly be forced to mimic soon, shhhhh). If you would like to read more about Mr. Wooster (*cough* stalk him *cough*) here are additional links. Enjoy!





I'm going to ignore that he refers to himself as an "old queen" in this one and pretend that a heterosexual male can be this stylish. More pics in this one.






Nial has no idea how many short-sleeved button ups and capris he'll be wearing soon.







A shirt and tie that are the same color makes me crazy...in a good way. (If it were a bow tie, I'd have to be committed.)








Hot guy in an amazing suit and then you look down and POW! The lack of socks adds that European cherry on top.
