New Yorkers tend to look great. Effortlessy great. They're not usually the kind with caked-on make up and overly styled hair that looks like they spent too much time on themselves.
However, I am surprised that the polyester dresses with abstract prints have taken a hold here. The prints are universally awful, and polyester is a terrible fabric to wear in this heat.
The first time I saw Gladiator sandals was in Germany in 1984. Hard to believe they're back again. Just a reminder to all of us: what's in style shouldn't be worn by all people.
I really shouldn't complain about the fashion on the streets as my wardrobe looks ragged. I did buy a pair of shoes for work last October,but I admit I'm looking a little bit thrift (ukay-ukay in Tagalog).
The next time I go shopping, I will look for some stunning bejeweled sandals, and I will go for a retro print dress - but it won't be polyester or ugly.
YES:
Silver bejeweled sandal slippers
Silky paisley/ 70s print dress (not polyester)
Designer purse (I like the silvery ones - trying to pick the right thing)
Foxy sunglasses (Big ones like Sophia Loren)
And while I'm being fashion police, unless you're a my Grandpa, Cary Grant or Sean Connery and you can pull of European beach glamour, please don't wear man-sandals!! Especially those brown leather strappy ones popular in middle america.
