Real Style: Winter Wonderland

"Well it's the M - I - crooked letter, ain't no one better/And when I'm on the microphone you best to wear your sweater/Cause I'm cooler than a polar bear's toenails/Oh hell, there he go again talkin that shit again." Outkast, Atliens.

The other day it was soooo cold in NYC. The forecast was for 19 degrees, but it felt like 5 degrees with the wind chill (cooler than a polar bear's toenails). Always on the lookout for fashionable people, I spotted this chick on the way to the train. She was nice enough to stop, in the cold, to take this pic:


She looks cold, yet cool. The belt on her coat, paired with her funky boots and equally funky hairstyle screamed style. I also liked how her Puma Bag was really cute, yet unpretentious. I guess you don't need a big label bag to look fabulous:)

Smootches!

Do you just stop ppl and say "excuse me, do you mind ig i take a pic of you and put it on my blog?" natural hairstyles are the business. i love her coat and sweater :)
