Streetwalker: Back in Black

Got her: Texting her way down Mott Street on her way to work.

Stalked her: Her vibrant red hair color caught our eye. Though the outfit holds its own, too.

Shot her: Because she makes all black look so fresh and summery.

She said: “Well, I have to wear all black for work. Other than that, 50s vintage everything, plus designer vintage—” yes, the Chanel bag she’s swinging is real “—It’s all about flea markets, flea markets, flea markets.”

We said: We’ll take advice from anyone who wears all vintage, has tattoos and avoids looking like a crazy Amy Winehouse wannabe.

I actually like this one! Effortless.

I agree the pink bag is not doing it for me, but I'll assume she had to tote some stuff to work and this is just her go to bag. We all have one!

pink and red combo is a definite no-no combination. and is that pink thing a fake Birkin? if so i don't think it matters her Chanel is "real".
i do like her hair and the outfit minus the pink monster.

I do like the hair and I agree with no.3 about the pink thing. I have been guilty of carrying the strange but roomy bag and sacrificing the overall look.

Loving the necklaces and the Chanel bag. Everything else is simple and ordinary.

I think she looks gorgeous. Really a good Streetwalker pick. I think the pink bag goes perfectly with the look and her red hair and the black dress I think its fab.

I was on Mott just yesterday, in the same building as Dead Horse/fashionista, in fact. I looked better than her, but nobody took my photo! :(

Love the splash of pink with the black outfit and red hair.

She stands out while pulling the whole thing together.

Balance is the key to fashion and everything else that surrounds us, no?
