NYFW Street Style Photos

As you very well know, New York Fashion Week has been going strong for a full week now -- and it will be coming to an end tomorrow evening. However, over the last few days I have been out at Lincoln Center taking street style photos of the attendees while also helping out with marketing for the e-commerce site Zaden Row. Whether it's celebrities, magazine editors, bloggers, buyers or just fashionable people hanging around the square -- I shot just about everyone and have amassed a pile of pics to share with you.

I was lucky enough to have a front row opportunity to get up close and personal with fashion's finest and ended up with a collection of styles and trends that you just won't find anywhere else. Over the next few days or so I will be hand-selecting and editing the pictures that I think are the most fashion forward and will slowly share them with you via my Street Shots page. I will also be attending a fashion show on the last night of fashion week, Thursday September 13th, and will post pictures of that as well. (I CAN'T WAIT!)

Please stay tuned and let me know what you think about the photos after I post them. I look forward to seeing what outfits, trends and people you find the most appealing. Until then, here are just a couple photos to wet your appetite.

Best,

Instagram

That's right folks! I was finally able to download Instagram onto my Android phone the other week and I am having a ball. If you have Instagram, you should definitely follow me! [Just search for amandavogt] I may have just started posting photos, but I am on a roll! My favorite photo subjects thus far have been my painted nails, the city around me, fashionable friends, people on the street and anything else that catches my fancy. If you follow me, I will follow you back! I love seeing everyone's pictures. Until you get around to adding me.... here are a few of my latest photos.

P.S. Be on the lookout for a new addition to the website. I'd like to get things going by this coming weekend, but if not, then definitely the next weekend after!

                              

Stumble-ogs

Surfing the net and coming across fashion blogs is a big part of staying up to date and inspired. I am always finding and stumbling upon new and interesting fashion blogs. Every so often I will create a post like this one that summarizes and links to fashion blogs that I have recently found and enjoyed. Even though there is a constant stream of blogs on the net, I have yet to find two that are the same - and I think that is what is so interesting about the fashion blog 'community.'

Here are a couple blogs that I've been intrigued by this week:

Citizen Couture is a truly breathtaking site. It is full of pictures of extremely fashionable people from all over the globe. In my opinion, Citizen Couture is similar to something like the Sartorialist, but instead of just a blogspot blog, it is an all-encompassing website. The blog was started by a freelance photographer in 2009, so the site is fairly new. The photos on Citizen Couture are of fashion professionals and/or random people at fashion events, shows and gatherings from around the world. And what I also love about this site is that almost every picture taken has a caption with the person's name and profession underneath it. So you can put a name to a face and see just what the 'fashion editor at Vogue Italia' is wearing to a Paris fashion show. If you are searching for inspiration and some of the most stunning photos of fashionistas found on the street, this is worth checking out!

It Looks Good to Me is another fashion blog that I have actually been following for quite some time. This blog doesn't just cover fashion, but also design, food, art and many other little categories. Started by a textile designer from Brooklyn, It Looks Good to Me has a great following and is a very well put together website. Since the author, Caroline, is an artist/illustrator, she is constantly creating artwork for the blog, and she even has a 'print shop' where you can purchase her work. I find her's to be a very unique style, and I like the personality that she gives to the site. Coupled with her own illustrations, photographs and writings about fashion and style trends in New York City, this blog is one of my favorites!
