Hipster Guys: Casually Chick

-

A casually chick couple - weekends is a great time for a couple to share a fab desert in a fab location. Soho/NYC

Especially very good time to spot New Yorkers casually, but stylishly dressed is - on weekends. Even on weekends, New Yorkers don't let the the weekend vibe get them out of the stylish mood. 


At the same time, they don't try to be casual - [because if they do, it's very noticeable that they try too hard...] - but rather it comes naturally to New York men to be both comfortable and fashionable by wearing everything from Rag & Bone jeans and suede Ugg Ascots to Camden and Kiburn shoes that even hold the name of To Boot New York (by Adam Derrick), mixing it with baggy/oversized sweaters, camouflage jackets and wool coats.

Sneakers, in the likes of Converse - [all colors with an overwhelming preference for whites] - and, this season, especially in style - golden sneakers - in the likes of Gola, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci is something that is very favored with the New York men. More often than ever I see a man wearing sneakers in gold. [While glitzy, spiked men's shoes by Christian Louboutin - is something of a 'casual' luxury - a bit of an edge - that only a few can pull off].

I, personally, find this men's 'casually chick' style very attractive, and I believe that one should not get sloppy on weekends just because it's weekends. One can still dress effortlessly stylish... And New York men set a very good example for that. Plus, it makes a girl look very stylish too...



Tube hats, army-color inspired jackets, folded jeans and short black wool jackets/coats - make the what could be 'too casual' look very hip and very stylish without loosing that 'weekend casual' flavor...

Yesterday I met the creative force behind one of the greatest versions of the Vogue magazines in the world - Vogue Italia . I've met Franca Sozzani , the Editor-in-Chief, who has been with Vogue Italia since 1988 and who came to the Museum at FIT to share her wisdom - [ you should have seen the line of people, some of which really looked like serious fashionistas, to the auditorium to meet with Sozzani! Good thing I've booked it way in advance! ] To say that this woman is brilliant is an understatement, she is beyond the visionary. She is also hilarious and is not afraid to push the envelope. Her bold statements in regards to how the fashion industry works and what goes into the production of one of the most prestigious fashion magazines in the world once again proved, why she's been considered one of the most controversial editors in the history of Vogue. She shared with us the things that most of the fashion industry players are afraid to say out-loud....

The Stylish Simplicity: A Stylish Casualness

There is something about the people, who know, how to dress simple and at the same time - stylish. Choosing one attribute of an overall look that both compliments the whole look and, at the same time, adds an element that makes a simple look stylish and less casual, but casual enough - is, sort of, an art.  I see a lot of people, who try too hard to look stylish by throwing everything that they think defines 'fashion' and 'style' and end up looking too made-up. And then I see individuals, who seem to have an art of 'effortlessness' to them when it comes to putting a stylish casual look together. Here's just a few examples of the individuals who did it right - they look effortlessly contend in the casual style... A nice pullover always adds that element of a stylish casualness, sans the pullover - jeans and sneakers would have looked too casual...
