Street Style: The Most Personal Application of Fashion.
Street style has a HUGE influence on the Fashion Industry as a whole; From bloggers to top designers, street style is the most personal expression of fashion and pop culture. A perfect example of street style influencing High Fashion was the 70’s Punk to 90’s Grunge being the theme of 2013 Met Gala.
Earlier this month was New York Fashion Week (NYFW) and the street style received just as much coverage as the Fall 2014 Collections themselves. Here is a full week packed with NYFW street style trends including: Lots of Denim, Tons of Layers (we translated the layers for the OC weather), Chunky Shoes, Socks with Shoes, Crop Tops and Embellished Shoes.
Everyone translates current trends to fit into their own personal style. Have fun translating or copying these forward fashion looks from NYFW. Happy Styling!
1. Statement Coat & Tee
There is no one hotter than the Great Kate Moss. Since we obviously don’t have the cold days NYC has, just pair your printed tee with a statement coat. Add your favorite pair of jeans and great flats and this the perfect look to transition in and out of warm and cool OC weather.

6. Sporty Luxe
The sports inspired trend as been going strong for a few season and this spring is no exception. Boxy crop top and track pants set the stage for your sporty style. Make the look your own with your choice of accessories. Sexy heels, pointy toe pumps or wedge sneakers are great shoe pairings.
