Athena CNew York –the city of high life magic, the place where being stylish is the only recommendation to survive. For me, it’s just awesome to live where you ooze with effortless style, and it is the easiest notion to blend in with the natives. However, some find it difficult and feel rather critical. Well! No need to get confused, here is an ultimate guide to dress like a true New Yorker.
The Statement Shoes
New Yorkers are crazy about shoes. The place is full with workaholics and shoes matter the most to them –no it’s not about comfort. In New York, good looks have a price and that price is pain. This means you have to walk down to your home from work in high heels, work whole day standing, moving and walking around in stilettos. Make yourself habitual to it.
Bikers are all year style-statement
A good quality leather jacket is never out-of-place. It keeps you trendy enough and provides a definitive edge to your outfits and let you stand out while keeping on track with your fellows.
The Neutral Palette
Bright colours are seasonal, while pastel shades are too girlish –whatever the reason is, they are not the colours of New York. To dress like a true New Yorker, hang on the neutral colour palette. Black is the signature color of NYC. Black is never out of style, white, navy and grey are also year-round trendy neutrals. Revive your closet with Black and grey pencil skirts, white, black and navy shirts. A pretty black dress, some neutral shades dresses and tops with denim –whatever the piece you chose that is in neutral, you are on the right track of being a true New Yorker, so step on it!
Bold Accessories
In New York, chokers are the favourite way to accessorize yourself. The idea is to dress simple yet stylish and show boldness through heavy yet chic jewelry pieces. Go for heavy necklaces with simple necklines and bold earrings for button-up shirts. Bangles, bracelets and beaded accessories are totally NYC’s style.
Posh Handbags
You will never find a New Yorker woman without a handbag that is less than fashionable. A handbag is a must-have accessory of a New Yorker woman, whether it is a classy Prada, a Stylish Chanel or a cute clutch from Top Shop. It’s never about price, but the dedication of accessorizing with bag.
Exquisite Eyewear
To complete your New York looks, stylish and high fashion eyewear is a must-have. The idea is not about the need, looking good in those iconic shades is all that matters.
