AFW Street style: Reversed collar coat
These are the kinds I really like …an asymmetrical coat that you were in draped style. And ‘reversed collar’ makes it even more interesting. The whole look could have been better it she had worn more suitable/ matching pants and heels, in my honest opinion. Still a nice look though.
AFW Street style: Fashionchick Amanda
Always great seeing my friend Amanda again …she’s one of the few people who really like to dress up to the max and steel the show. This shot was taken before the show started with just enough daylight to capture the colors.
