It’s that time of year again..New York Fashion Week! Scouring the street style blogs we have put together our top 13, not 10 or 12, but lucky 13 looks from Day 1 of NYFW.
Street style has become such a huge part of Fashion Week that these stylish ladies and street style photographers have almost become the new runway on it’s own. With more wearable outfits worn on the street, many “normal” people look to these style mavens for inspiration on how to style their own wardrobes rather than referring to the real runway. Yes the runway is an amazing experience and you ultimately cannot compare the two, but fashion week has definitely evolved into something more than just viewing the shows.
It’s interesting to observe what all of the other huge websites who are “curating” their idea of what represents the best street style. Some photos are a bit crazy. Yes there are those creative individuals who can wear some unique pieces of clothing that make you stop and stare, but to the average Joe or should we say average Jane, they may look a bit silly. Of course as fashion folk and creatives we can either be inspired by these looks, taken aback, or feel completely indifferent.
Whatever the look, these 13 street style stars are what we would consider to be the “top” in our eyes of some serious yet wearable style.
Don't get us wrong we love a ripped jean or sneaker/skirt combo, but something about Aimee's outfit is just plain perfection. From her beautiful stilettos to elegant and wispy long sleeved BCBG dress, her look is the epitome of Fashion Week Glam. Image from Asia Typek
We absolutely love this classic yet super stylish look. The simple black sleeveless mock turtleneck paired with the "trench" skirt has just the right amount of detail to show a look that's classic yet interesting as opposed to classic and boring.
Simple and chic, this girl has got her silhouettes down to a T. We love her flared cropped pants paired with this adorable sleeveless blazer/vest look she has going on. And those shoes? Perfect.

Who can resist some playful overalls accessorized perfectly with her straw boater and bandanna. We especially love her pop of color red handbag along with elevating the look a bit with some chunky sandal booties.

Wearing all white after labor day is such a silly rule. Take this sophisticated look paired with some simple sandal stilettos and this girl can easily go from the show to the party.

Rompers will forever be one of those items in your wardrobe that you can't seem to let go of. We love this girl's windowpane printed suit and playful furry handbag and colored eyewear. So much fun!
Margaret Zhang shows off her idea perhaps of what fashionable suit would be. Her culottes and blazer paired with burnt orange booties is the perfect fall look.

One of our top picks so far, this red haired maven is sporting the coolest outfit we've seen thus far. Her extra long tunic or over sized dress paired with some striped crop pants, silver sandals and amazing handbag. Simply amazing.

We love the simple statement this girl is making. Her shirt dress, colorful clutch paired with some camel boots are the perfect fall touch..and perfect for the rain!

We all need a long sleeve printed dress asap. This look is both glamorous and boho chic at the same time. The belt completes the look along with her cut out stilettos that definitely draw you in.

These ladies definitely have that "it" factor when it comes to style. Who can resist a fun Moschino handbag or color blocked leather jacket? We sure cant.

That skirt! Love the graphic impact it makes and her simple black and white accessories help make the look wearable and not over the top.

If only everyone could pull off such a simple outfit and look so chic. It obviously helps that this girl is beyond gorgeous with her teeny tiny waist, and this simple high waist pant paired with a simple T and jewelry is such a chic statement we can't help but love.

One of the best parts of the Paris couture shows or any fashion week for that matter is the street style going on outside the tents. From celebrities, editors, buyers and fashion bloggers, the troves of women in particular who attend these shows are definitely there to see and be seen.
Some of the outfits chosen can be a little over the top, but the looks below represent the top twenty street style looks that are definitely inspirational yet wearable. Although we enjoy from time to time seeing the outrageous show stopper looks, we usually are most inspired by the women who just seem to have a certain je ne sais quoi, without wearing something too crazy.
From Olivia Palermo’s chic ensemble to Nicole Warne’s sexy yet chic look, the women did not disappoint the fashion photographers this season. We suppose it doesn’t hurt that it’s the spring shows and it’s obviously much easier to dress appropriately as opposed to being bundled up in a coat.
