The Outfix

Feather and Fringe

by Matthew T. Murray


Street style. Two little words, one large impact. Like-minded fashion girls nationwide look to the never-ending slideshows of fashion's finest during Fashion Month (Hanneli! Anna! Miroslava! Random chick with the Chanel bag that has haunted precisely seventeen dreams of mine!) to inform the way they dress. I comb through these slideshows like a salivating puppy - more appropriately, let's go with a starved and ravenous eagle - but each click brings about a mixed Dior bag of emotions: a little inspiration, a lot of envy, some confusion (how the f*&# did the street style gods deem basic jeans and a t-shirt worthy of a snap!?), and a smile here and there that I give permission to surface on the corners of my mouth. More than anything else, street style thrills me and makes me want to spruce things up in my own wardrobe and share just how you can too.

This Outfix above screams 'Phil Oh, please photograph me or I will die an untimely death sans make-up!'. And lookie, lookie, Phil Oh already did a whole thing on the street style set rocking suede fringe so you're a shoe-in for a well-deserved snap. But damn, pair the fringe with feathers and gurl, you just won Fashion Week! The feathery top, too, is by none other than newly-minted street style necessary-designer Marques'Almeida - who has gotten the best buzz this week from both my spirit animal Leandra Medine of Man Repeller and the Greek gods of fashion - the writers of Style.com. To give the dripping tassels of fringe and the fluffity fluffiness of feathers a bit of a necessary tone-down, pair with light-wash denim and a peachy-pink bag( I am kind of am obsessed with it and featured here by the way!).

Fuzzy Wuzzy

by Matthew T. Murray


What's all the fuzz about? Sorry. Had to. Don't hate me. Or hate me but make sure to buy this Tibi pastel moto dream jacket in the fuzziest fabric. It's so plush, it's sure to remind you of your now-raggedy Beanie Baby collection stowed away under your bed. For the ultimate fuzzy wuzzy wet-dream, pair dove grey mule-hybrid shoes in a brushed, plush tweed (also Tibi!) and you've got quite the lewk. Pair it with a muted bag in a pastel shade of coral and ultra-hip Marc by Marc Jacobs jeans (now going by MBMJ under the direction of one Miss Luella Bartley and Katie Hillier) and be prepared to be snapped by Phil Oh. Hey, with fashion week around the corner, I couldn't help but think this is street style fodder. Will you embrace the fuzz this season?
