God i miss to see New Yorkers

This outfit is too cool :D

That's why black never goes out of favor, especially with the fashion crowd. You could pack these outfits in an overnight bag, and with enough underwear you could get outfits for perhaps a week! I wish they were happier-looking, but they are tremendously stylish and that's enough! Jorge from WPB

Blacked out!… and rockin the Adidas high tops, very interesting…

I love it all, except for the white socks on him.

But the lady is beautiful; her expression matches her clothes.

This is summer wear? I am somewhat perplexed.

New York, at last…

Overcooked.

The girl with the umbrella. I love her look, and a drawing pad is the best accessory.

this one was shot a few months ago then, because it's in British Vogue??

very slick.

on a side note, the nylon tricot high-waist legging ad is very disturbing

I now think of Toms in a whole different way. Plus the topshop bag… it is nice seeing a fun bag every once in a while :)
overall, these are both so fun

The hat and leather jacket are to die for! I also love the girl on the right's shades!

Great shot. The long black ballet skirt with footless tights, flats, & black leather jacket really works because she's tall, slim, pretty, and has great attitude. They both look like they don't take themselves, or fashion, too seriously, and are having fun with it, which to me is the essence of good style.

I've noticed (& have been posting since the spring) that on London streets, black is the new black and it's carried thru the summer.

I don't care when you shot it: I predict that black (along with grey) will be a summer classic. Not that it will ever knock white out completely, but it's a close contender.

Impressive!

The outfit and style of the girl on the right is absolutely brilliant. Ethical, perfect mix of masculine and feminine, so classic in matching shades of black. Love it!!!

Love the look on the right. Fab combination of leather jacket and whimsical skirt.

Only in NYC.

Clearly I have different sweat glands then they do. This weather does not call for jackets and black all over. Yikes.

Passport Foodie

Nope. Black is Dressing for Beginners. Kidstuff.

new yorkers know their style well!

Both of them look so hot and fierce, I agree 2 urban nomads!

It does my heart glad to see someone wearing Toms…She has the style of my youngest daughter that I always admire how see utilizes her clothes…I love the brick street!!! The girls look like they simply belong there.

Way too hot in NYC to be wearing all black with leggings. Show some skin!

Was this a fashion shoot? Cause otherwise very overdressed for being on the street. Leather Jacket in August?

God, I <3 NYC

nothing against the other cities on here, but the electricity is always almost tangible from THIS particular city.

it's not even just about the clothes, it's how they carry the clothes. GODDDDD i need to go back ASAP!!!

Artists-dressed-in-all-black-uniform looks clean and comfortable here.

Down to earth shoes. These young women could run fast if they wanted to.

I think I've seen it recently in September issue of Vogue UK. Great article, by the way. x

Her legs look way too skinny in leggins.

cool kids

very new york. that's great.

i was all over new york the past two months hoping to run into you and get snapped, but you weren't anywhere in sight! These girls look awesome though!!

<3 The Voguette

Ode to rainy days in the city. If only everyone could dress like that…

The girl is gorgeous!

When you are wearing an almost all black outfit, 999 out of 1000 times it will look amazing. I dare the people to wear more colors. It's very hard to combine different colours. Imagine these girls wearing three completely different colours, they would look ugly. It's not always about the cloths, it's actually always about mixing colours.

I LOVE the Toms! The umbrella is also such a great accessory.

what i'd like to know is when this photo was taken? it surely wasn't on Aug 13th with the boiling 1000 degrees we've had out here this week; no one in their right mind would ever wear this in August in nyc, would they? So just curious to know.
They look mad cool though. Now if only I weren't sweating just by looking at them… ;)

is she wearing TOMS? i love those shoes, they are soooo comfortable!

they both look really cool!

so funky i love. art studentssss

You just cannot go wrong with black, I like the legging layering on both!
http://fashionpearlsofwisdom.blogspot.com/

is no one else a bit perplexed by the fact that it's very difficult to tell if the person on the left is male or female? That mystery has taken over my ability to analyze the rest of the picture.

rockin the Tom's!

I'm so loving those TOMS. by far my favorite footwear I've seen on this blog, ever.

Love the skirt on the right! but damn I am tired of the edgy angst expressions. what the hell is so wrong with looking like a pleasant person? sheesh. no need for the blue steel 24/7

ooooh… they look like vampires.

TOMS???Argentine Alpargatas,they are comfortable and VERY cheap!!

MEEP! Love the hat. Everything's oh-so-slick yet nonchalant.

Who is she? She is wearing "alpargatas", those are typical from Argentina!!

the matrixxxx.

wicked pair, and amazing photo as usual.

these women look stunning!

lacysmess.blogspot.com

its good information..

I am not so sure this photo was taken recently & perhaps Sartorialist, Scott can fill us in. The weather has been incredibly hot here. Also, to the right side is a person that is blurred but also dressed in black & he/she appears to have some sort of coat on as well. As for the look itself – they're kids with great imagination. Black is black & always complimentary to anyone.

very movie alike… uau… would dare to say very tarantino…

the look like they have come straight from a sketch book….

delicious

The one with the hat is trying too hard. Far too hard.

i'm growing kind of tired of these dark, slinky looks. it's imitated and pulled off by so many people that it's lost its novelty.

Ya no what I'M thinking a Bowler might have wooked better than the Straw. However she looks quite good.

hidden in her notebook is a drawing of me as a statue. Atleast, I wish it were true; her stare is enough to turn us all into stone and I love it.

1st pic which i save from this blog's tons of pictures. coooool summer!

GREAT HARDWARE!!!

That's a guy.

Hummmmm the left silhouette is very classy… i love it!

I have the shoes she is wearing

ohmygod I feel soooooo cool.

this is great.

I can't stop looking at this! Very suave, very slick, and their expressions just top it off! Love it!

badass. the end.

It's so great to see people wearing TOMS shoes!

Although I like and am interested in the girl on the right's shear skirt paired with leggings, I do not particularly care for these two people and their style. For me, they are taking themselves and their clothes too seriously.

How very NYC. Or what I would expect from NYC. Both need to gain some weight and learn to smile.

They have to have a theme song! If only I knew it, I'd hum it all weekend…

no 'it' bags here which is cool

Isn´t the one on the left a boy? Whatever. I hope the clothes feel comfortable, cause that´s all I can get out of this.

he is the perfect accessory for her kick ass kit

The guy looks a bit like Coco Rocha.

nice, very cool of that guy's hat.

i like this

Poptropica

I love the black & white mix, very cool :)

Hi

I saw this picture in Vogue and I read the aticle.I would love to have the sence of confidence to find someone on the street and photograph them.Are some people really frightened when you approach them?

I love the way that the girl on the left is clutching onto an art block.

would you like to follow my blog and I will follow yours too!

:)

Happy blogging

All the Black TOMS are sold out now.

Haha, thanks.

Not my thing…

It's "try to hard"… not natural style as such in my humble opinion.

chic, sexy, and ready for fall. a great shot and a great outfit, especially the girl on the right.

There's always the challenge of looking sharp even on rainy days…

These two nailed it on the head and are on point.

TOMS!!

They look great with mixing different blacks. For my next month trip to NYC, I guess I need to put more black stuff in my suit case!

Love her leather jacket.

All these black outfits are excellent. A mix a high and end pieces are lovely!

These two look absolutely amazing!

If you saw a couple of girls walking down the road dressed like this.. you've half admire them for their obviously good taste and half wonder if you could ever pull this look off yourself.
Who needs accessories when you've got that stare/pout combo.
Black clearly is timeless..

Man, there is much better stuff in NYC than this, come on.

Hi! First time leaving a message here but have been reading your blog! I saw your book displayed on a shelf at the B&N @ Lincoln Center in NYC. So cool!

I think they should be the new wave New Yorker look to emulate…at least for the bolder, younger and fashion focused individuals who will go there to live or visit.
'Like it a lot!

What cool kids ;)

Haha, modern day ninjas!Girl on the right- I love the TOMS!! and those sunglasses- uber-classy

The girl on the right is AMAZING!

They look like they could be sophisticated, chilled out vacationing ninjas in NY.

Are they real???

So nice !!

I love it

Sheesh people– lighten up, they're just kids. I think they look fine. Nothing exceptional, but nothing too contrived either, they're obviously art school students and honoring the classic all-black dress code of such. I think it's fun. And I agree with those who say the young lady is a DEAD RINGER for a young Parker Posey. The young man reminds me of a young Ric Ocasek (of The Cars).

The portrait was obviously snapped some time ago– I'm sure they would not be wearing this in the current heat weave.

Cheers,
PLO

i LOVE "toms shoes" :D

alpargatas!

fantastic shot.
way too cool people.

however,it's over 90 degrees in ny!!! howcome i am wearing shorts and they're rocking this kind of outfit!?!?

They look like Hipster Superheroes!

Looooove the Black Style!

ninjas…. but soo serious. come on, people. stop takng yourselves so seriously!

What REALLY caught my eye is the umbrella. I've been looking for one like that for the longest of times. I've been following Scott for a long long time now but this is the picture that really speaks to me. Thanks!

Love the slender dark lines against cobble-stoned SOHO, but I feel these stylings are from trying too hard. I do like the ponytailed one's old Ray Bans.

very urban… it seems to me like they are trying a little to hard…but thats just me.

I wear black year around, also in summer; linen, light weight jerseys, silk…

I don't believe this was shot lately. Look at the man on the back ground; long over coat and a cap or hat. So maybe these cool kids have taken few layers off for the summer?

blown away by the coolness… brrrr

ouch, those outfits look miserable for the weather we have been experiencing in the city. great ideas for fall though! a leather jacket in august?? im sweating in my apt just thinking about it!!!

Love it..
would like to see him without hat and glasses!!

No, but they're probably comfortable in this 90 degree weather..

nice look but would it hurt to dress a little more weather-appropriate? A leather jacket in 80' weather is a little ridiculous

Ninjas!!!

Love it almost
"Sports Person GOTHIC".

I love the looks on their faces! Its far more real looking then “smile for the camera”. Very dignified. And the outfits are just as great now as they were then!
