KEEPING IT SIMPLE

STREET STYLE

his month, Astorians were keeping their style refreshingly
simple. I spotted these stylish western Queens residents
and visitors while they were enjoying a coffee break, running
errands on their day off, enjoying a Friday evening
with a friend or catching brunch with family.
Several of my favorite looks this month were monochrome
or used classic light and dark color contrasts. Even those
T
wearing prints kept their style minimal: one woman wore a dress
with an all-over print but paired it with nude-colored accessories,
while another had two prints on one shirt — but they were both
black and white. Plus, the jewelry this month — on both women and
men — added personality to the looks. Keep styling, Astoria!
Cait, a graphic
designer who was
visiting Astoria,
defines her style
as “comfortable
and minimal.”
Her black-andwhite
look
was definitely
minimal yet
eye-catching
at the same time.
Love how her blue
nails added a pop
of color!
Jessica (@caterpillar_
complex), an Astoria actress,
was enjoying a walk around
the neighborhood. She
mentioned she keeps an
open mind when it
comes to her outfits:
“If I like it I wear it,”
she said.
Her relaxed,
off-the-shoulder,
printed dress
with nude flats
and a nude bag
came together
for a chic look,
perfect for
a beautiful day
out and about.
Jordan
(@rjsalinasss),
who works as
a senior data
analyst for the
U.N., said his
style is “trendy
and hip.” His
distressed
dark jeans,
crew-neck tee
and Converse
sneakers
were hip but
comfortable for
a day of running
errands.
Yusuf (@joseph.elshazly) works in marketing and was
enjoying his day off visiting Astoria to have brunch.
His style is “business casual,” he said. His jeans came
together nicely with a button-down shirt that was just
slightly a different color, but with an understated print,
and his black boots brought the look together. I also
appreciate when men can rock interesting jewelry
pieces — check out this closer look at his ring.
