Streetwalker: We'll Have Seconds, Please

Jun 16, 2008 @ 10:29am

Yasmin, 27, Prop Stylist

Got Her: Painting the windows at Fashionista favorite, L'asso Pizza

Stalked Her: Stealthily from our little table in the corner.

Shot Her: Because her neon and floral mix was bold enough to distract us from our margherita pizza slice [Note: the ensemble was way brighter than our pictures suggest]. And we came to the conclusion that her paint spattered hands were a great fashion statement.

She says: "This is all from Beacon's Closet. It's all I had to wear today - I'm just here helping out my boyfriend!"

We Say: Spring florals + Highlighter hues = Summer. Scientific Fact?

i love the outfit, but i think the shoes leave something to be desired.

i mean, i like the idea of the little boots, but the fact that they're brown makes me think of the 90s hiking-boot-with-skirts-and-dresses trend.

she's really cute but the real question is why were you eating pizza at 10:30 in the morning?

Guest @ 11:34 - You obviously haven't experienced the yumminess of L'asso pizza... but this was actually taken Friday, silly.

(Not that I WOULDN'T eat 10am pizza.)

She's fabulous. L'asso is fantastic, had to run down to get some a few times during my shoots @ sun studios.

I can't believe she'd paint in something that cute, I'd be scared to get paint on it!

I love how she makes neon look feminine instead of new-ravey. Very cute.

I love the back view, esp. with those shoes.

all i can say is NY must be different.. if you wore that in DC people would definitely laugh at you. :)

^ That's why DC isn't the fashion capital? ..

Anyway, I love it. She reminds me of M.I.A and I feel that if Dov Carney of American Apparel started doing work for say, MARIMEKKO, this would be the end result.

guest at 6:34 - yeah maybe not, but i tend to appreciate fashion you can wear in more than just "fashion capitals" :)

ahh jazzi! i'm glad you're still here - i saw your blog at teen vogue when i was looking at casey & connie's and i thought you had left fashionista for good!

This is a good example of a well-assembled outfit that exudes personal style. I wouldn't be caught dead in fluorescent anything, but I think she rocks it (except for the back! luckily she has long hair!)
