Fashion of Columbus I: Gallery Hop August 2013

What goes on my mind on my way to NYU: “I am living in the city of dreams! Such an inspiring journey seeing all the passerby, the hipsters, the creatives, the chic, the bohos, the suited-ups, the dressed-downs……”

What goes on my mind on my way to class on OSU campus: “Stupid Freshmen! Get out of my way! And stop wearing running shorts – you are NOT working out!!!”

I believe I have made it pretty clear (if you are not clear) that Columbus isn’t quite the place for fashion. But there are 2 things I go to for my fashion fix in Columbus – Gallery Hop and Scarlett Magazine.

Gallery Hop August 2013

AKA my favorite time of the month in Columbus when walking down High Street all dressed up is encouraged. Whether they are going for the galleries or the sales or a fancy dinner or a bachelor’s party, Gallery Hop surely crowds Columbus together. And when there are people, there is fashion.

Absolutely love how she is pairing her tshirt – be bold with your tshirts! They are not married to your jeans.

DSC_0083The navy blue collared polka dot shirt, marine green leather skirt and black strapped sandals surprised me with a red lip. Perfect.

And FYI, this shop, Brigade is my new favorite boutique in Columbus – only if I could afford it.

Men, watch and learn. This is how you wear jeans/high-top shoes.

I am aware that this is a very belated post of Gallery Hop. Well. On the bright side September’s Gallery Hop is this Saturday!

See you there.
