Yaya-Beaugar and Jeremy

Following on from my last post, I discovered yet another stylish pair in Camden the following day. Yaya-Beaugar and Jeremy ooze attitude, flamboyance and flair in their show stopping attire. I couldn’t believe my luck when I discovered them walking down Camden Road. Their highly original outfits decorated the street and pulled in many admiring glances and comments from passers by. I love how they’ve juxtaposed embroidery, florals, metallics and ruffles with leather, studs and trainers.  These guys are crazy about fashion and know how to have fun with it. Bravo boys!

Yaya-Beaugar wears jacket and trousers by Kokontozai, jacket by Kassamoto, trainers by Y3 and a cap by New Era.

 

Jeremy wears jacket by H&M, shirt by Versace, Trousers by Y3, Belt by Galliano and shoes by Swear.

Dapper Gent

If only all men could pull off Andy’s slick style. His ‘gentleman in the city’ look is put together with classic, elegant pieces worn to perfection. While his twirly moustache, ankle-cropped trousers and tattoos give his look a quirky edge. Andy wears shirt by Our Legacy, tie by RRL, trousers by Uniforms For The Dedicated, belt by Anderson’s, bag by Ally Cappellino, shoes by Marc Jacobs and Casio watch. Andy works for Liberty and all items can be purchased from there.

The world has been tickled pink with this playful hair colour popping up everywhere.  Here are some of my favourite examples of colourful fun.

Tanya & Tanya

Tanya and Tanya certainly know how to rock a head scarf, furry gilet and converse. These two buddies ooze swagger and style, mixing vintage pieces with textures and COLOUR!

Tanya Lacey (above) is a singer/songwriter and recently co-wrote “T.H.E” (The Hardest Ever) with Wil.i.am, JLo and Jagger. Watch out for her debut album coming out later this year, released by Sony/RCA. She wears a jacket by Pinkyotto from Williamsburg (my favourite place in NY!) furry gilet from Notting Hill, t-shirt from Forever 21, vintage headscarf, leggings from ASOS and Converse trainers.

Tanya (below) is a student and works pink panther chic in her jacket from Topshop, jeans from Topshop, furry gilet from Heba, pink top from Spitalfields and Converse trainers. ♥ it!

Carnaby Street colours with Natasha

 

It was a lovely surprise to bump into Natasha on Carnaby Street. She’s an old friend from work who I haven’t seen for years! Natasha’s a stylist and as you can see, it comes naturally to her. So of course, I had to take some photos of her! She wears a vintage jacket, leopard print t-shirt from Primark, lace red top from Topshop, trousers by Provider, shoes by Salvatore Ferragamo, Moschino bag and Rolex watch.

Poupée mécanique

It makes me so happy to see Leo’s beautifully eccentric style. He is a vision from the past! Leo is passionate about dolls. He designs exquisite clothes for them and also restores and customizes them. Take a look at his fascinating website Poupée mécanique. Leo wears shirt and breeches from an antique market, waistcoat from a Parisian vintage shop and shoes bought on Ebay.

Veronica

 

I spotted Veronica walking down Carnaby Street in her amazing outfit as she ate her yummy looking frozen yoghurt. She wears a dress by Michael Van Der Ham, coat by Matthew Williamson and metallic shoes by Alexander McQueen. The colours and collage effect of this dress are beautiful and she has perfectly matched the hues of the dress with the rest of her outfit. You can get a similar style dress by Michael Van Der Ham on Net-A-Porter here.  I love how the huge furry hood of her coat creates an angel-wing like effect, while the geometric shapes and embroidery add a great twist of detail to a parka.

I love Silvia's cute touch to her look with these ballet shoes and frilly socks

This yellow printed blazer with blue lapels is so much fun - a real attention grabbing piece.
