Dolce Vista - Ombre Obsessed

Ombre obsessed.

Skinny jeans, step aside. Wide leg pants are in vogue this season, although our obsession with headwear seems to be more widely shared. Still, wide leg pants are a stylish (and comfortable) option for both casual and dressy occasions. We love the elongated effect created by this high-waisted patterned version paired with the platformed heels. The colors in the pants are also a cute complementary nod to ombre hair. We're pairing some simple taupe Halston Heritage wide leg pants with a crop sweater, stepping into platform wedges, and hitting the town!

Dolce Vista - Serendipitous Spikes

Serendipitous spikes.

While we enjoy the simple black ensemble paired with a mustard cap, we really stopped this innocent pedestrian because of the accessory. Is there anything better than a purple bag? Yes - and that would be a purple bag with squishy purple spikes. We were informed that the bag came from a children's store in Williamsburg. A few days later, as if the heavens had ordained that we too obtain this bag (and perhaps they had), we walked by Babesta in Tribeca and spotted it in the window!

Dolce Vista - Bowlers and Bobs

Bowlers and bobs.

Well hello again summer, at least for one beautiful October weekend. The city was abuzz this weekend as we all soaked in the unseasonably warm rays. This meant, of course, that we were spoilt for street style choice, all of which will be posted throughout the upcoming week. We start the week with an appropriately vibrant shout-out to summer.

Where to begin? We love this from head to toe. We could wax lyrical about this pink button down paired with the shorts/tights combo, but it really stands firmly and wonderfully on its own. Most exciting are the complement of the pale pink sunglasses. And, while we were already in search of headwear, bowler is now officially added to the list. May we all look so effortlessly Euro-New York City-chic!

Dolce Vista - West Village Mona Lisa

West Village Mona Lisa.

Although this outfit is (literally) beige, there is a certain je ne sais quoi about it creating that heady rush of inspiration sought by creatives everywhere.

Perhaps it is the wink at a cape. Perhaps it is the headwear, which we all know is the accoutrement of the moment. Then again, perhaps it is the attitude, a much more elusive accessory...

Dolce Vista by meg shops

Self-expression at St. Marks Square.

Spotted outside meg's 9th St. store on this balmy Monday afternoon. We were taken by the Lennon-esque sunglasses and general nonchalance. There seems to be a case of the forgotten pants, though.
