The Gipsy Queen of Frazier Avenue

dress: American Eagle
half sleeve cardigan: Target
mask: Blue Skies
One of many styles available from Blue Skies, her
Victorian mask is a facsimile of Madame Tussaud's
The Gipsy Queen.

Peachtree Road, Atlanta

An heirloom cross, chalk stripe jacket by Ted Baker
of London and paisley print make an anglophilic
statement in Buckhead. Martini's collar comes from
Dixie Dog Wear.

On Williams Street

It was in winter that this fellow first appeared on
The Chattanoogan. His pared-down-for-summer
look is no less well considered. Today he chose a
classic Pearl Snap shirt and sneakers by Alife.

On Frazier Avenue

Her frock by Isaac Mizrahi reminded me of all
these great looks from Target, even to the very
first posting.

Blue and White Encore

Soon an anonymous browser's mouse click will be
recorded as the 20,000th viewing of this blog. Who
better to put it over the top than this veteran, whose
first appearance drew four comments?

Cool Morning

It's a good day that begins with a stylish encounter before 9am. Hat and laceless Chucks will see him through the heat later today.

A Signature Look

One of the pleasures of 'blogging street styles
is revisiting people. Back in December of 2008,
she was the subject of The Chattanoogan's
17th posting. Today our paths crossed, again. 320
'blog entries later, city cycling remains an important
theme, along with living the mantra: 'reduce, reuse,
recycle'. As before, another pair of much-loved
slippers join an upcycled skirt, this one from LEO.
The bandana favors her coloring, finishes the look
as would a necklace and provides a resting place
for her autoharp pick.

Her Grandmother's Bicycle...

is a proper Peugeot from France.

Bluff View Style

Leopard print meets liriope, which is not a grass
for monkeys but a relative of the lily. She keeps
cool in a blouse by J. Crew.

Timeless Looks

Like last week's visitors from Georgia, this
stylish duo kept cool, old school, as temperatures
approached ninety degrees in Chattanooga.

Viva Vintage

The world seems to be divided between those who thrift and those who do not. Lucky is she who found this red polka dotted dress in Texas and the crocheted bolero at the local Goodwill. Even her cruiser came with a past.
