Anna Dello Russo wishes she'd thought of this first.

What makes a street style starlet? Is it her fearlessness in the face of fashion, her ability to pull off the latest runway trends? Or, is it the fact that she has a photographer trailing her around Lincoln Center, asking her to pose just-so in that sunny spot over there? This New York fashion week, we wanted to find out for ourselves.

As a girl who has sadly (sadly? Sure, we’ll go with that) never been the subject of an actual street style snap, I was up for the challenge. The plan? Have our resident street style snapper Ashley start shooting me outside of the shows in hopes that her “interest” in what I was wearing might catch on with the other photogs, hungry for some fresh street style meat. So did they take the bait, or leave me pacing in circles around the Lincoln Center fountain wearing brainwave controlled cat ears?

Read and find out.
