Street Feet: Million Bucks Chucks

Converse Chuck Taylor High Tops: Sometimes Casual, Always Cool)

In our humble opinion, one can never go wrong when wearing Converse Chuck Taylors, otherwise known as Chucks. Case in point, this casually worn pair of sneaks add the right amount of panache for a day of people watching on the streets of Sacramento. Dressed up, or dressed down, a pair of Chucks can make you feel, well, like a million bucks.

Street Style: Leather & Leopard

Street Style: A Man's Man's Man's World

It's a Man's Man's Man's World: Sophia Makes the Most of Men's Wear in Midtown Sacramento

Sophia was recently spotted thrifting in midtown in head-to-toe menswear.
The man’s chapeau, worn at the back, suspenders and wingtip shoes paired with the skinny jeans keeps her look feminine while borrowing from the boys.

Street Style SACRAMENTO: Describe your personal style?

Sophia: My personal style is 1950’s businessman. Always pulled together (and looking sharp, might I add).

Street Style SACRAMENTO: Where do you find your inspiration? 

Sophia: My dad, for sure, and I really admire the style of musician Janelle Monae. I love her bow ties.

Street Style: Holiday Sweater

Local designer for BUTT UGLY, Kris Laskey shares a holiday tradition with Street Style SACRAMENTO

So you wanna know about Kris and her beaded sweater? Well, she purchased it for .25 cents about 20 years ago at the original SPCA. She wears this sweater on the first real chill of the year, for one day only and then packs it up for the next year to come . It is all hand beaded and stitched. What a fun holiday tradition that's pretty cool!

Street Feet: Stella McCartney Desert Boots

A fresh femme version of the classic suede Desert Boots steps it up in Sacramento

This updated femme version of the Desert Boot is by Stella McCartney. They are super chic with just the right amount of lift.

Global Accents

This Sacramento lovely looks California casual in her pretty-in-pink shirt with the rolled up sleeves, and high waisted black shorts ensemble. What makes the look  worth a second glance are her color saturated reddish-brown velvety oxfords and her imported shoulder bag. The chili colored bag with the brightly colored embroidered elephant of yellow and turquoise adds enough spice to heat up the outfit.

Street Style: Black Beauty

This Sacramento beauty stands out in a crowd.

This lithe and leggy beauty could easily be from a Keane's "Big Eye" painting. Her name is Nicole, and while she looks like a model, she's a Barista at Temple Coffee.

The look is sweet and child-like, down to the crayola styled red-heart tattoo.

What works in this deceptively simple black-on-black ensemble are the subtle textures- from the girl's lank, unkept curls, the horizontal stripes of her tank, to the brilliant vertical run in her black stocking.
