Neoprene Dream

Spotted at Partners & Spade – who says you can’t still look fashionable while attending a packed-to-the-gills-and-sweaty summer opening at a fake surf shop in Noho? x

Partners & Newton

Hey – I was out last night on Great Jones Street and these kids were too. We were at Partners & Spade for The Eighties At Echo Beach book launch party. It was also the launch event for the latest hey-is-this-a-gallery-or-is-this-a-store-or-both-or-neither revamp of the Partners & Spade space…you gotta check it out if you have a chance…it looks (sort of) like an 80′s southern California surf shop up in there now…perfect for summer! xo

Stars and Stripes

Spotted at the Brooklyn Flea in Williamsburg…happy Memorial Day ya’ll…God bless America! Yay – so excited that summer is finally here!!! Can you believe it?? xo

Chelsea Girl – Vika

My buddy Vika was visiting New York recently. I ran into her on the street in Chelsea…

Style Cadet

When I first spotted Caroline in Soho it was her trashy/chic socks-and-Marni-heels combo that caught my eye. (Hey, at least I’m honest.) Upon closer inspection though what I really went bananas for was her vintage Canadian military jacket. I especially loved all of the original patches saying things like “Captain Vancouver” and “Sea Cadets” – love them! I was also struck by how she seemed to be wearing this jacket almost as a short belted trench. Given that she’s a petite girl, it’s not that surprising that a man’s jacket would fit her more like a trench…but it fit her nicely through the shoulders as well…so the fit was more like a new piece from a women’s wear designer’s military-inspired collection…rather than an actual vintage piece. A classic example of “how to work a bit of vintage quirk into an otherwise off-the-rack look” if you ask me. xx Mr. Newton

Fashionable At The Flea

If you’re a regular reader of Mr. Newton, you’ll know that there’s nothing that I like better than a great outdoor market…or cool music festival…or rooftop party…or basically anything that involves stylish kids hangin’ outdoors in nice weather. I live for this sort of thing. I loathe winter more than any man has ever loathed winter in the entire history of winter loathing. So when spring weather finally comes around – as it has recently in New York – this is much more exciting to me than any fashion week could ever be. Also – I prefer to shoot real girls with real style – which is what you’ll find at a fashionable market or festival. Here then are my street style photos from the Brooklyn Flea on 4.30.11… xo
