New York City is a tremendous city. Although it was previously named New Amsterdam when held by the Dutch in the 17th century, the relics of this history are hard to find. One can only easily find hints of its past in the names of the streets, such as Wall Street, which was quite literally a wall in the early days of the city. Now it is made up of five boroughs and is the largest city in the United States. It is home to many movie stars, writers, and fashion designers and simply teems with culture and dynamic energy. Everyone really dresses up when they hit the streets of NYC. Whether off to a Broadway show (I saw How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying starring Daniel Radcliffe!!), a stroll into Central Park, lunch at a local deli, or out shopping, the people of New York really know how to dress. I saw countless men dressed in fine suits with polished loafers and bowties. Women strut down the street wearing all of the latest styles in the highest of heels. I honestly have no idea how they do it while dodging cabs at the same time.
New York provided a new found inspiration for me with regards to fashion. The New Yorkers tried out new styles and rocked them with confidence. This all reinforced and inspired some of the new looks I want to try this summer. Below are a few of the pieces that I am hoping to find and wear over the next few months. I would have included the crop top, but I actually bought myself two in H&M on 5th Avenue! I'll report back on how that look is progressing.
