Where are you on your way to?

On my way to grab some coffee in between classes.

Favorite store/brand?

My favorite store in NYC is Stella Dallas by 10 ft Single on North 6th in Williamsburg. It’s a pretty good vintage store that isn’t outrageously priced.

Where are you from?

I proudly hail from Richmond, VA

How would you describe your style?

I would usually describe my style as casual or androgynous, but I’ve been throwing on lots of gaudy and/or girly accessories lately to femme up my look.

Why we spotted her:

Sporting black and white from the ankles up, Leslie surprises us by throwing in a pair of bright blue socks and daring Marni platforms. While staying loyal to her usual androgynous look by sporting a sleek, straight silhouette, she adds that touch of femme with her fur sweater and platforms to kick it all up a notch.
