Street Style in the Midnight Hour 2

Street Style in the Midnight Hour: Part 1

I'm starting a new segment, called Street Style in the Midnight Hour, which will feature a the street style photo of the people in Atlanta that I stumble upon. I will post around midnight eastern time. I figured it made a lot of sense because I'm a night owl and I'm usually my most productive around the midnight hour. Ever since I started this blog in 07, I have always wanted to post street style photos but never happened to have my camera on me when I do find people. Luckily for the past month, I have been keeping my camera on me and taking photos of any and everything I come across. Maybe this will convince and motivate me to post more! 

I found this darling lady driving in 5 pm rush hour traffic on the streets of Atlanta. I literally swerved around in traffic to take a photo of her. I am ABSOLUTELY in LOVE with her black and white floor length coat. Very Mod and Tribal at the same time. She says she has had this coat for years! Talk about timeless! 

What do you guys think about the new segment for The Fashion Scavenger?

"Right outside Atlanta, Georgia is a small charter school that brings together refugee children from war-torn countries all over the world and teaches them alongside local American children. A Place In The World follows three families with ties to the school, a first year teacher, and the new principal of the school over the course of two years, as they adapt to, and learn from, this diverse and complex social environment. The film asks the question of whether we can all live together in this rapidly changing world."

New Style Crush: Julia Sarr Jamois

Happy Tuesday!

If you have been a loyal reader or a personal friend of mine, you would know, that I am OBSESSED with Solange Knowles, sister of Beyonce'. She has been a personal style icon of mine for the last year and i plan on keeping it that way for years to come. Doing my usual daily blog roll, I logged into streetpeeper.com. This is one of my favorite blogs to read but I always forget to read it frequently. I came across this beautiful miss with the most beautiful afro and I  was intrigued. Who is she?I have seen her all over these  popular blogs  every now and thenand I just thought she was some random girl who looked cool.   Luckily, streetpeeper.com usually labels their photos with the model's name, so I decided to google her. This mademoiselle is a 23 year old fashion editor of Wonderland Magazine! She is from London, has done modeling for Fred Perry and Diesel  and some freelance styling. Amazing right? She is like my British Solange! She mixes prints, tailored pieces,many textures, and colors. She is the epitome of effortless! Perfect mix of quirky, grunge, and structure. I've never heard of Wonderland magazine, but after reading it for hours last night and all of  this morning, I think it is my new favorite magazine. The photos are beautiful and the page layouts are well done. I love that you can read all of the articles and view the editorial shoots online! For your viewing pleasure of how amazing this girl's style is, I'm uploading some of my favorite style photos! Thank you, StreetPeeper..... once again,you have inspired me!

 Julia Sarr- Jamois

I just bought a polka dot sweater just like this except its grey and creme. It's super adorable, and super Julia Sarr.

That jumpsuit is to die for!

I have always loved the mix between stripes and prints. It always looks fun but not messy and disheveled! Is this your boyfriend Julia? I hope so, because his style is just as amazing.

Business/ Party...perfect lunch date outfits! 

I want both of these fur coats in my closet right now + the glitter wedges. Who are these made by? Let's talk about this african yellow printed skirt too... I need to do some serious research.

I need to add gray triblend tights to my christmas wishlist, asap.

I remember seeing this cover in Barnes & Noble. I should've bought it when I had the chance. Reminds me of Lisa Frank..my childhood favorite. i was a true fan of her school supplies. i had everything Lisa Frank!

P.S. I'm considering starting either a youtube channel or podcast? Which one are you guys more likely  follow?

Famalam Jam

Swedish singer/rapper, Gnucci Banana, has been a favorite for me since May,ever since my friend Yves introduced me to her... I love her adorable floral/ yellow striped shorts suit! I love her voice..I love her beats. I'm ready for her album to come out! 

Happy Monday!

A.Y. Not Dead

One of my new favorite designers that I found while working on a business plan for a specialty denim store for class. It has taken me hours to come across this brand as well as find some of styles I would like to sell in my "store." A.Y. Not Dead is an Argentine brand that rarely has an United States presence. They have about three stores in Argentina and sell to a few e- commerce sites, such as Fabricly, which is also a new favorite site of mine. I love this promo video for Summer 2012! I'm interested to see how this label grows and where they'll be in five years. If I ever did build a store, this would be a dream label to have! I would most definitely visit Argentina just to go to this store and shop.
