I see a lot of the young women wearing glasses with big frames, 80s low-heeled slouchy boots, and vintage 70s outfits, either dresses or sweater/blouse/skirt separates. I take that back. I saw Cameron Diaz the other day and she was dressed the same way. She’s close to 40, right? So it’s not just young girls, it’s any woman who can get away with that look.
Beards on the guys. Lots of bird’s nest material beardage out there. Skinny jeans on both sexes. But those are the hipsters and that’s been the style for a few years now. I’ve seen a lot of working-class kids in Ed Hardy tees, hoodies and kicks. Uggs and the like have been sent down to the working-class girls and suburban moms, at least here in NYC.
No one worth their blog is without their iPhone 3G and/or Mac Book, either. And only a dork or a 5 year old has a backpack. Everyone carries messenger/computer bags.
