This week we walked up and down Bowery Street searching for our favorite murals and stylish people to accompany them. Since the popular street is filled with tons of great places to eat and shop, we decided to observe Bowery\u2019s street style within\u00a0the establishments that line it. We photographed and interviewed the people that make Bowery street awesome – the employees of shops and restaurants.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In all three cases, our interviewees exemplified that while their street style is in all ways comfortable and functional for working life, they still find a way to keep the outfits stylish with a personal touch.\u00a0As always, the street art played the perfect background.<\/p>\n

Anime on Rivington Street at Green Fingers Market<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Name<\/strong>: Paige<\/span><\/p>\n Where are you from?<\/strong>: I\u2019m from here. I was born in NJ, but raised in New York City. <\/span><\/p>\n Tell us\u00a0about your outfit<\/strong>: Well these gymnastics pants I\u2019m wearing because I didn\u2019t do laundry, \u00a0so I didn\u2019t have underwear! I got the pants from Urban from their vintage section. They\u2019re real army pants. I actually bought these because I was Kim Possible for Halloween last year. My shirt is my friend\u2019s moms that I stole when I was in high school many years ago. I tied it because it\u2019s pretty long. Oh and my rings! I have this thing about Vintage sterling silver – I will go anywhere to find it. I got this one as payment for a company I modeled for once. I think it was a sample they didn\u2019t like, but I loved it. These I got from Poshmark and this one I got in Spain at a flea market. <\/span><\/p>\n Where do you find fashion inspiration?<\/strong>: <\/b>Well, both of my sisters are in fashion, and I appreciate their style, but I\u2019m more about sustainability. That\u2019s what I studied. I only like high wasted pants. That\u2019s like my base and then I find cute tops to go with. <\/span><\/p>\n Favorite place to see art in NYC?<\/strong>: <\/b>Kids art! It\u2019s the best – like younger kids. They have this place in Long Island City. I think it may be called Teen Art Salon. They just give free space and materials to young kids to create and then they have pop-up shows.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Freeman’s Alley<\/strong><\/p>\n
