Louis Shannon NYU Student Fashion

School, Year, Major:

Gallatin, Freshman, Undecided

Where were you on your way to?

Trying to find my phone I lost somewhere the day before.

Favorite store/brand?

Salvor Projects, VASF in (rvca store in San Francisco)

Where are you from?

Lower Manhattan.

How would you describe your style?

Buy friend’s stuff, wear free stuff, wear stuff with big pockets, stay warm.

Why we spotted him:

Louis embodies the carefully understated style that only those native to this fantastic island can have. Sturdy basics from Cheap Monday jeans to Hosoi Vans complement novel pieces from Salvor Projects and RVCA.

My favorite, though, are the crystal-framed Sol Moscot glasses that top off Louis’ polished, inquisitive look.

Just yesterday my friend and I were discussing how it was much more difficult for men to dress fashionably. Conclusion? Carefully selected accessories, my friend. Learn from the natives.

Glasses: Sol Moscot Originals, $125 w/prescription. Scarf: Salvor Projects, $80. Jacket: RVCA, $Free Dollars. Jeans: Cheap Mondays, $Cheap as Free. Shoes:Hosoi Vans $65. Moped: Solex, $350 from Craigslist

School, Year, Major:

Gallatin, Freshman, Concentration of Writing and Art History

Where were you on your way to?

Louis lost his ID, we were going to pick it up at from someone who lives on Broadway. [Louis, you lost your ID too?? Haha]

Favorite store/brand?

I love Oak and Opening Ceremony, can’t afford it though XD

Where are you from?

Suburb outside Chicago

How would you describe your style?

I like patterns, dresses, and heels … of all different styles.

Why we spotted her:

Colleen’s oversized daddy/grammy sweater makes me want to curl up on my nonexistent comfy couch in my hypothetical snuggie with a cup of hot chocolate—perhaps with a dash of Bailey’s–and watch the snow fall (which IS supposed to happen tonight, by the way). The perfect piece to throw on with leggings+ankle boots and look instantly boho-fab in is also, lucky Colleen, an item of particular sentimental value. And while I am quite impressed with my Timberland find, unfortunately, there is nothing that could ever truly emulate a sweater full of loving purls.

Sweater: It’s my dad’s, my grandmother knitted it for him in the 70’s. Leggings: Uniqlo, $15. Shoes:Nine West, $70.
