You can learn a thing or two from Bill Cunningham…

I just saw the documentary, Bill Cunningham New York, tonight and could rave on and on about it. It was an amazingly well-produced, heart-felt, funny film about possibly the most humble & unmaterialistic man in the fashion world. This photographer is truly an artist in every sense of the word and a wonderful human being. I am so inspired about not only how he captures street fashion but also by his humility, genuineness, grace, and good nature. His kind personality was so infectious, and his commitment to his craft is admirable. You just don’t see that everyday anymore.

All in all: It’s a beautiful documentary about a beautiful human being. Go see it. NOW.

My friend Brittnee who, true to NY style, really wears all black and white. While I am usually weary of the all-black wardrobe, her outfits actually excite me with her intricate details and great accessorizing. While those who know me know that I’m a BIG fan of color, I’ve always wonder why black dominates so much of New Yorkers’ wardrobe. Now I know. Read her killer article below at Papercut Mag and check out the breathtaking photography (especially the one on page 53 ::sigh::).

Despite the color shyness, I will admit that damn, New Yorkers look good (well, most of them).

Papercut | March 2011

The new issue of Papercut magazine is online today. This month is the ‘Vintage Issue’. My article is on page 40 and blabbers on about wearing all black and only black. Read it if you like but if not you should at least look at all of the pretty photo spreads in this issue. The photographers really killed it this month.
