Enjoying the beautiful weather -when you live in Seattle that’s a BIG thing-

Travelling and having the opportunity to wear you favorite items is always a pleasure.

I move a little bit closer, I move a little bit closer. For reasons unknown.

Trying to do my signature paparazzi style, evidently they caught me. Saw these 2 friends, lying on a wall, having coffee and a cigarette while talking.

What made them so special? His biker leather jacket with the blue shirt half way tucked in, RayBan and shoes + his attitude. Sometimes it is hard for me to explain. Here in San Francisco the overall vibe is different. People are more casual, their style is more laid back.

Beautiful day @ Union Sq. I was reading a book, enjoying the city, the people and the music. Tourists come and go. An exhibition is positioned in the middle of the square. It’s awesome to watch the people stare to a piece of art for minutes, or just simply pass by without even turning around.

He was pretty cool though. I don’t know what he does for living, but I could definitely say he just likes art. I was very, very far away taking pictures, so it is almost impossible that he noticed me. These pictures are completely spontaneous, loved his hands in his pockets, his sleeves pushed up, and his colorful bag.

I happen to like a lot when people mix the trend with their personal twist.

Her jean jacket just completes the outfit. The jersey long dress + RayBan wayfarer’s + long necklace +beaded flat sandals + over sized knit bag looks fantastic. Also, is something about her hair color + cut that I like.

She just got the swing!

Here is the setting: eYe was walking down the street, waiting for the light to change, when this guy parked his car, grabbed his phone and walked fast to the Prada Store. I only had the chance to take 1 picture, and thank God it came out nicely! The way he parked his car and ran to the store was how we see it in the movies, fast but slow… does this makes sense to you? I couldn’t stop him to ask him about what he was wearing, he was on the phone, and my stalker rules prevented me of bothering him.

Anyways, he nailed it.

Beige Oxford Shirt + Lime Green Silk Tie + Fern Green Sports coat + Medium grey light weight flannel pants + Barrett + Rectangular sunglasses = is stylish.

I know it’s hard but take a closer look to the length of his pants, shoes and socks. I just wish every guy would have this clear. Maybe I am tough but a dressy pant too long looks awful.

Sunny day @ Geary St

For some reason everything works in this picture. What’s funny is that the couple holding their hands is NOT related to the girls behind.

This is a spontaneous picture of people walking down the street. Honestly eYe was not expecting that it will come out this fun. 

Things in common:

1.- Everyone is wearing skinny jeans -they are really a huge trend here-

2.- The fedora hat, or just a hat… Accessories are very strong.

3.- Rayban… what are the odds? They are few feet apart and they don’t know each other -well, I believe so-.

4.- His wolf t-shirt is so 90′s that is fierce.

5.- They say that color is back -I agree- but in reality the streets are filled out with people wearing black, white and gray.

They must hang out together…. they just have to! 

How fun is her sailor dress with her knee high red socks and her Mary Jane’s? If that was not enough for you please take a closer look to her motorcycle leather jacket! Clap, clap, clap!

Notwithstanding, she is walking next to him… He is monochromatic, cool shirt and vest, nice skinny jeans but the best part is that the aviator sunglasses are RED!

Must confess that I am not the biggest fan of red but when is done right you must point it out.
