Streetwalker: Black Out

Jun 05, 2008 @ 2:44pm

streetwalker black out small.jpg Sara, 17

Got her: At Ninth Ave and 14th St

Stalked her: Because it's the first wintery outfit we've seen in awhile. We miss black tights!

Shot her: Because with her black patent leather shoes and smart, black plaid mini, this high schooler's dressed like a quintessential New Yorker. Plus, this is a good lesson that a monochrome outfit doesn't have to be boring - her shoes and the texture of that dress add just the right amount of interest.

She says: "I just moved from Sydney. It's only my fifth day in the city!"

We say: Welcome to New York - you already fit in.

She's doing the Miley Cyrus poofy lip pucker thing. Please, everyone out there, stop doing this in pictures.

Why are we even discussing this? The only reason she's wearing "wintery clothes" is because she just came out of fall/winter and hasn't had time to update her wardrobe.
And if by fitting in you mean imitating Miley Cyrus along with every pubescent bopper, then I guess you're into something...

How Utterly Dissatisfying!

I actually think she looks really cute. I hate summer and summertime clothing so I think it's a great.

I love this outfit. I'm all for black year-round. I found a bunch of really cute black dresses great for the summer at shopgoldyn.com. I just think the black tights are a bit much ...

I walked by her on my way to lunch and she looks much better when she's not making that face.

I like the black tights and they'll protect her white legs.

Do you guys only photograph skinny or pretty girls? I've yet to see a any normal/average looking "fashionistas" in these Streetwalker segments.

talk about bitch picking. A photo of a cute girl from Sydney walking down the streets of NY and some feel they have the right to pull it apart......2 thoughts come to mind..."what goes around comes around" and "jealousy's a curse". I know she's been around longer than Mile Cyrus and we in Australia could care less about her.

I don't quite understand how this reassembles Miley Cyrus.
