Street Art & Street Style

Black and Navy Faux Leather Outfit

One of my favorite things about living in NYC is that the entire city is basically an outdoor art gallery.  From the constantly rotating mural on Bowery to the month-long stint by the famous artist Banksy … you can get a feel for the creative energy running through the city just by walking down the street.  So today, I’ve partnered with Perrier to celebrate my city’s street art and show off a little bit of my own street style.

The only thing is … I was visiting friends and family back in Arizona during the time of my shoot and I ended up finding my favorite piece of outdoor work in my second favorite city: Phoenix.  I know, it’s not the first place that comes to mind when you think of street art, but as it turns out, it’s a huge hub for local artists.  Roosevelt Row in downtown Phoenix is home to dozens of murals and one larger-than-life structure.  Crazy curves, colorful shades … you know it was love at first sight.

And while I prefer my street art as bold and bright as can be, I’ve actually been gravitating in a completely different direction when it comes to my style.  I’m talking a little bit of faux leather, a dash of leopard and whole lot of black.  I guess you could say I brought a little bit of New York street style back home to Arizona.  It’s like having the best of both worlds and that’s something I can cheers to!
