I saw this wonderful lady in front of The New Museum on Bowery and just had to approach her for a photo. She told me that she used to model in Switzerland and that I could visit her anytime. She also told me that she was wearing head to toe Sonia Rykiel, another Advanced Style inspiration of mine.

Lindsay Brown sent me these wonderful photos. She writes, “She looked so great… and then she opened the umbrella.”

I noticed this lady’s decorated umbrella from afar and upon closer inspection saw that she had perfectly coordinated her scarves with it.

This guy adds a bit of color to his classic three piece suit with a blue plaid scarf. He seemed surprised when I told him how stylish he looked and he gave a big smile for a quick photo.

I saw this guy walking in Nolita and admired how his yellow Ray Ban’s ,casually swept hair and belted jacket made for an unconventionally cool look.
