Snapshot Of A City: Monday






























from Curb Appeal






























from ATL: A Thrift Life































from ATLandish


Once upon a time, this blog was the only local source of street fashions. Now our city's stylish are being stalked by four photographers at any given moment. That is a lot of time and energy well spent. From top to bottom, please have a look at what Shanita Sims, Brian Hadden and Jordan Stubbs found this Monday. Clicking on the images will take you to their blogs for more great looks.

These unusual trousers are a souvenir of Koh Tao, where he found them in a French flavored part of the island. Give him a listen at Jack Of Hearts.

shoes: Steve Madden

On Euclid Avenue: Navy Blue

Here are but a few of the vendors and attendees from today's Vintage Apparel Market Place. Traditional shopkeepers and etsy entrepreneurs alike welcomed the opportunity to gather for such a stylish crowd. DJ Zano mixed "Runway Sounds" and the popular Good Food Truck became a Trike for this festive occasion. Kudos to Marji Ayati and Jacqueline Stringham for organizing such a wonderful pop-up shop.

Xanadu On Krog Street

The Krog tunnel is a scary place to invite someone for an impromptu street portrait, so when the proprietress of Two Tart agreed to meet me for a picture to preview this Saturday's Vintage Apparel Market Place, there was but one favored location. From her enviable closet she chose this 1980's dress recalling "Xanadu-something between disco and new wave." Shoes are L.A.M.B. by Gwen Stefani. Follow this link to view the awesome lineup of vintage retailers who are V.A.M.P.

Octane Coffee

A coffee shop displayed my first exhibition of photographs and today, Marlee's proudly hosts my Oakland Cemetery: A Year In Pictures at the Pencil Factory. Other street fashion photographers have said so and I agree: our blogs walk hand in hand with espresso and latté art. Aurora, Condesa and Steady Hand are also fertile fashion hunting grounds. Just click on the coffee tag for a look at more caffeinated goodness.

The atrium at Studioplex invites all manner of expression. Tonight it gave voice to a collection of birdhouses as unique as their designers and all being auctioned for the benefit of Architecture For Humanity. Volunteer Communications Director Chandra Farley rocks a frock from K-la beside the creation of SCAD students Navita Gupta and Zohreh Birjandian.

The Colors of Summer

Be they stripes or solids, Aegean, Bahamian or Caribbean, sky or sea and sand, blues and whites put us in a coastal mood.
