This lady looks chic in her vintage dress and over sized aviators. She told me that she often wears vintage but likes to mix in designer items as well.
From berets to Borsalinos older guys always seem to have the best hats. When I was a little kid my grandpa gave me one of his old fisherman's hats which I wore nonstop for years. These days I try and mix it up and the guys above definitely provide me with great inspiration!
This lady bought her sunglasses near St. Marks . They make a great compliment to her red ruffled blouse.
Lucy is one of my favorite people to run into. She always wears her beret and can be seen sitting in the park on most sunny days. Today I saw her on the way to the park and we stopped to chat for a moment. She told me that many people stop and take her picture and that she has been wearing the same flower and beret for over 7 years.
Oftentimes when I am out taking photos I get a sudden rush of excitement when I see someone truly inspiring. Yesterday I saw this wonderful lady in her big blue glasses, sitting in the cafe of the New Museum. I asked if I could take her photo and she gladly posed for a shots, laughing all the while. When I walked her back into the museum she told me that she was waiting for a friend, who happened to be celebrating her birthday. I asked if she was stylish as well and you can see from the photos above that she was a true gem. Both of these ladies were vibrant and full of spirit, not to mention they also have great style. Can you believe that they are 85 and 92 years old!
A great pair of shades look cool no matter how old you are. Don't be afraid to bring back an eye wear trend, as long as you wear it with confidence, like the guys above.
While walking around the city, I'll often times run into someone I have photographed before. Each time I see this gentleman I am impressed by his charming and sophisticated look. His coordinated outfits are effortlessly stylish and full of character.

I ran into this guy on Madison during a rainy Spring day in New York. I was first drawn to his great red jacket and then began to notice how he casually cuffed both his trousers and shirt sleeves. The cuffs not only break up the red in the jacket, but also help to create a look that is both comfortable and classic.
I like how this guy paired his saddle shoes with baby blue socks. He looked cool sitting on a bench in Nolita in his aviator shades and blue sports coat.
I passed this lady in SoHo, on a break from work. The sun was shining and her mint green dress looked sweet on a beautiful Summer's day!

This guy has a great eye for details. I love the way he coordinates his glasses, tie, and pocket square with the rest of his outfit. What a great pair of shoes as well!
This wonderful woman came into the New Museum again, wearing one of her original hand knit, high fashion sweaters. She is influenced by contemporary design and makes each sweater purely out of cashmere.
