Where did u get those boots



Girl wearing All Saints Damisi boots and Ray Ban Wayfarers



Her shirt is by H&M.  The coat is Zara.  The shades are Ray Ban.  The pants and boots are from All Saints.



I already knew where these boots were from before I asked her.  I've been aware of them for the past 2 years - and counting.



Every now and then someone comes out with the perfect version of an item.  To me in this case -  it's this combat boot.  I've seen the buckled straps worn in different ways (she is wearing the bottom strap threaded through the top buckle with the flap folded down in front.   Cuffed oversized chinos + shirt = relaxed chic.  It really is the teeny details...



You can get her boots and pants here in different colours.

Bam!  Every now and then you see someone that stops you.



Rachel Rabbit White looks like the essence of 1960s rock and roll.   That sergeant pepper beautifully detailed dress.  Her long time owned and adored vintage bag.  I have a soft spot for Queen bags too like this (my nick name for them). Mine is black but a bright one like Rachel's is perfect for right now.



Everthing reminded me of the aesthetic of Anna Sui which reminds me.  I have a recent find Anna Sui dress I need to show you soon....



Where to Get This Look:



An Antik Batik paisley print or leather trim Karen Zambos dress or a short sleeved dress like this that looks vintage.  Add bright tights or tie dyes and layer a DVF or Forever 21 pom pom scarf.



Boot options: Rachel Comey, Ash or Dolce Vita (if you want height) or fringed Minnetonkas (I have the same ones).

Where did u get that scarf

For me, it's not easy finding the perfectly worn in semi sheer scarf.



I see countless draped around the necks of lovelies on the streets in New York year round.  All in different textures, sizes and colours - tassles optional like this super bright one. I live in my black one by Love Quotes but it's.....black.  Safe and boring. The above one stopped me in my tracks long enough to take the shot but not ask where did she get hers. #FAIL



It looks like something faded out and softened after several washes - although these days what really is when anything can be bought to look like it is?



Thx to a couple of readers (thank you!)  they identified it from Free People. Apparently this version above is sold out (crap!) but I settled on the grey and blue version.   I'm already imagining a couple of ways to wear it including draped over shoulders.



Not that you hadn't already guessed it, but yes I caved and got it here.  If anyone spots a Union Jack version, do a girl a favour will you and let me know?




Where did u get that - Ring

I spotted Daniel on 7th street in the East Village and was transfixed by this gold and silver ring.



You know when you see someone dressed so simply with one piece of jewellery that it sets everything else off?  After a minute or so of looking at his ring - I approached him.

Where to get striking alternatives:



Kelly Wearstler perforated ring

Mania Mania Anais ring

Maison Martin Margiela ring set








WDUGT SPOTLIGHT - Gladiators










I stopped a girl on Sunday wearing these black leather sandals.  Very no nonsense masculine. Really simple for summer.



Loved the dark buckles.  The wide straps. The thicker sole.  Looking at them up close they had the finish of designer sandals ie. Rag & Bone.



She got them from All Saints mens section.  I wear womens US 10 and their mens size 9 fitted (I got a pair). They are online here.  I swear my obsession with menswear is relentless.



Her full look will be on the street blog soon.

WDUGT SPOTLIGHT - Winterizing Dresses








I saw Josie from behind crossing the road and loved her coat and backpack. I ran up to her and when she spun around I smiled. "So glad I stopped you" - I thought to myself.



It's always good to see a girl after my own heart and finding ways to start wearing spring looks already. Love the baby blue and light brown coat and boots.  I complimented her on the coat and she beamed: "I know right? and it was only $60!"  She reminds me of myself when I'm excited about a good find.



Don't even get me started on the little flowers she tied to her boot laces. They looked like they were supposed to be worn that way.  You are going to try this correct?  Because I bloody well am.



Josie is wearing: Rodarte for Target dress. Rodarte sunglasses. Vintage coat from Etsy. Cheap Monday knit and a vintage back pack (unseen).
