This looks so warm and cosy. As I start my first semester (ever) of university this (southern) Autumn/Winter, I’ll be looking to emulate this look with layering, double denim and a pompom beanie!

In the world of fashion there are three women, who, for the past few years have all been, at times, the queen of fashion. As the photographers gather around the fashion shows, during the numerous fashion weeks every season, they are all after the latest shot of Anna Dello Russo, Carine Roitfield and Giovana Battaglia. They are the fashion forward editors, directors and stylists that although older than some of the other sort-after street fashion objects, they always manage to stand out and command the attention of the photographers. Dello Russo and Roitfield are veterans of the fashion world, Roitfield’s pin-straight hair and piercing eyes are a regular fixture at fashion weeks, while Roitfields unusual head-pieces and body-baring outfits are almost another fashion show in themselves. Battaglia is still a long-standing member of the fashion squad, but newer than her two counter-parts, she also happens to be dating Roitfield’s son, Vladmir, she is also a former model, thus making her perfect for showing of the latest fashion must-haves. So of the three who is the dominant one, who wears the biggest style must-haves, who demands the most attention? All three, each in their own way, seems to be on top at some time.

It seems like the latest fashion accessory is a camera. The ‘It’ girls of the fashion world seem to increasingly being photographed with a camera slung over one shoulder, themselves eager to catch the latest ‘omg’ fashion moment. The photographers themselves are also the photographed, thus the photographers have become the photographed. Maybe it is the fact that these fashion ‘It’ girls who now appear in front and behind the lens, take the best photographs and have the best eye for what will be the best image to capture because they are not just journalists, but fashions addicts who have later become photographers along the way. Either way, ‘It’ girls such as bloggers Tamu Mcpherson, Hanneli and Natalie Joos are a few of the girls capturing the latest fashion trends and looks, and at the same time appearing in photographs of other street-style photographers capturing their latest looks.

Although it may be hot new stuff coming down the runway in NYC, the streets are not quite so warm. Yet those attending the fashion shows are fashionable enough to be able to look fabulous while bundled up against the cold winter. Leandra Medine, founder of the blog www.themanrepeller.com, manages to look especially chic outside the Karen Walker show, wearing boyfriend jeans, a gorgeous coat, striped tee (very French) and open toe Chanel booties.

While most of the attention in New York is focused on the designs coming down the runway, some of the best fashion moments of New York Fashion Week are seen on the streets, worn by those coming and going from the shows. Winter in New York always makes for daring combinations, some are fabulous and some not so much, but generally they all have some element that is fabulous in its own right.The look of the day straight from the streets of New York is a combination of two clashing prints, somehow the two look as though they were meant to be worn together. The button up blouse with the pencil skirt create a simple silhouette, while the vibrant prints create excitement. Not everyone could pull off this much colour, but when it’s done right, it looks amazing!
