CLASSIC CLOTHING
6 JULY 2 0 1 8
STREET STYLE
BY MARIE TORIO
A @PHOTOSBYMARIETORIO s I walked down the streets of Astoria on a breezy, sunny day, I
was impressed by the way western Queens residents were pulling
together classic pieces to create polished, stylish looks.
A lot of denim caught my attention, including a ‘90s-inspired
denim-on-denim look, in addition to black pieces that will never
go out of style: a sleek tank, a shoulder cut-out top and a blazer.
Astorians made these staples stand out with plaids and other
prints, funky but trendy shoes and shades, of course.
As always, western Queens fashion didn’t disappoint. Keep bringing
that swag to the streets!
Spencer (@s_grim), a math tutor and Astoria resident,
was on his way home from work and about to grab takeout.
He said he is “always overdressed” and likes to be “dressy.”
His relaxed, rolled-up jeans with a basic white V-neck tee,
blazer and dress shoes checked off all the style boxes.
Astorian Daniela (@danielaaleina) works at a beauty salon
and was on her way to have lunch with a friend when
I spotted her. She describes her style as “girly glam,” and
I totally agree. She paired her leggings and top with cute
sneakers and a silvery backpack but glammed it up with
her makeup and beautiful long hair.

a fashion
designer
visiting Astoria,
considers her
style to be
“basic.” Her
sleek, no-frills
look with
cut-off jeans,
booties and a
sleeveless black
top included
a lot of classic
pieces, but
the way she
combined them
gave her outfit
a touch of edge.

publicist visiting
her boyfriend
who lives in
Astoria. They
were on their
way home to
cook tacos. She
said her style is
“comfy city chic.” I
loved her relaxed
print pants, top
and sandals. It
came together in
an effortless and
comfortable way.
