Comments on "On the Street....NYU Two, NYC"
Her clothes are timeless; I think the pink bow may actually be a tongue-in-cheek statement but she pulls it off. Nothing is out of place, yet she tones thing down by having a slight bedhead look. His outfit works on someone under 23 who is still in school or in a highly creative profession, or self-employed. The rest of us, please abstain! Jorge from W Palm Beach
the girl is very well dressed.
the boy's jacket is nice too. I am only not so sure about the Onitsuka shoes.
I like how the missmatch between their styles enhance great details in both of their outfits.
Adorable, right down to the shoes.
This is a great photo! i love the girl's colours, her shoes and you are right - the pink bow is perfect. The guys plaid shirt is cool, the string is funny and ironic and i like the way he picks up the red laces with his backpack straps. They look like such a nice, friendly couple -very intune.
that kid looks ridiculous in his boys flannel and kids back pack.
the rest is fine.
Her shoes and jacket go so well. I love it.
oh to be young again..............
The pink bow is definitely tongue in cheek. Oh to be a student and be expressive with your clothes!
SART,
Why do you love the proportion of the too-small thrift store jacket?
The girl's outfit is great, I like her shoes very much.
i love his look. her is well done but his makes me look twice. right on Sart, it's his proportions that do it.
Not sure anything about their garb would have struck me as note-worthy. In the NYU/Union Square scene, these two don't stand out at all IMHO, just another grungy day without a lot of imagination.
I love his color-coordinated shoes & backpack!
I think they are adorable.
Was this picture taken in front of the New School? I have a friend who went there and I vaguely remember it, although don't live in New York.
they look amazing together, and verry happy :)
Loving her pink-rust-black scheme, shame about the cigarette habit...
He has some cool shoes...
i am in LOVE with these two. adorable
I can't decide on who I'd like to dressed as among the two! Oh I'll take both :D
the girl is perfect.
not sure im falling as hard for the flannie/backpack combination though, too aussie suburban scene kid for me.
Cute
I like his jacket. The too short sleeves are just neat.
She is adorable !
Her outfit is much better than his mostly because he has a tacky backpack and shoes
the shoe string belt is actually worn by a lot of younger guys now, my brother being one of them. He skateboards and claims that regular belts interfere with moving around on a skateboard and get super uncomfortable. that is where it originated pretty much. now every day guys realize that it is a lot lot more comfortable that leather belts!
Thank You. What I appreciate most here are the matching sleeve lengths of their coats.
On the surface, and let's just theorize because I will never know them, two seemingly very different people - who for some reason are drawn together, be it for love, friendship, whatever. But they are trying to make two very different statements, hers is very classic, retro, vintage: but her scarf plays with that a little bit and makes it somewhat less classic.
His is very modern. In mens fashion I find there to be a very fine line between lumberjack/ construction worker and fashionable. Especially with the work boots and flannels that men are supposed to be wearing this season. However, because of his proportions, he walks that line beautifully. The fit of his jacket and his sleeve length makes the seemingly overt masculinity of the style almost feminine, but not to a fault.
Thus meshing their clashing looks, unifying aesthetics, and explaining to some degree why they were drawn together. All through sleeve length. Fashion worthy of documentation is always a product of some sort of subversion of expectation.
I also love to see something free of labels on Sart. Thanks again
i love this light on their faces.
Ordinary people. But they look coool!!
I hate most sneakers/high tops and that whole movement, but I like these high top Asics. Weird.
Haha, I went to NYU and they look like the prototypical undergrad standing outside of Tisch/Gallatin smoking or waiting for the bus. You should photograph there more often -- you'll get some creative (albeit not so high-end) shots that are emblematic of young, downtown NYC style. Right there on Broadway is the perfect spot.
Ah memories.
These kids look like they're straight out of the Richmond Scene!
Love the Onitsuka Tigers he's wearing!
I like when you post younger people on here, it's a breath of fresh air.
Quintessential NYU/Downtown NYC style. Definitely photograph down here more often - you won't be sorry about what you find.
these two are a nice pair but there are much better dressed students at NYU.
string belt or shoelace belt? shoelace belts are an interesting but really common shakteboarding trend, more comfortable to skate in and skaters ALWAYS have extra shoelaces because they wear through their shoes so rapidly and always get extra pairs of laces with each pair of shoes..
great shot sart, i like seeing younger people on your blog.
sarah .
good, but meh. I feel like most "alternative" kids my age (the 18-26 year old group) dress this way already.
my favorite thing from you mr. sart, how you have the kindest interest and appreciation on the little details...it's very inspiring! :)
they're not americans, are they?
I understand why you posted this picture. The texture, pattern and color are interesting. However, to me this really just hipsters dressing like hipsters. You know, wearing what stylish people were wearing 3 years ago.
If you like this look, come to the University of Oregon campus.Every fifth person has it.

Nooooooooooooooo! Sooooo not fashion.
are you running out of stylish people to photograph??
The two of them are just so cute! I love it.
These two are different. That's for sure. And, there's something to be said about youth/street style as opposed to the more pulled-together look. But, this is pretty horrid.
plaid flannel shirt worn over a hoodie?? Gawd.. i should try that.
DANG! Well, he's nailed "the look", right down to using a shoelace for a belt, and a flannel over a hoodie. Wheres his board? This is EXACTLY what the skater dudes look like down here in Miami... including the swoopy doop of hair. Some of them cut the sleeves off the flannels, though. I sure do wish they weren't smoking-
Love her look- sweet!
flannel over hoodie? how have i missed this before!
it's one of those brilliant sart moments when my existing wardrobe seems to double in size.
thank you sart.
I love these tiger shoes!!!
have to disagree with so many comments that this look is typical of downtown, particularly around NYU. really? i've not found much creativity down there recently...
i've actually been hoping that with the current economics, there will be some more interesting fashion on the street in NYC soon... i'm waiting... waiting....
Fucking boring! I can't decide what is more middle-class...Nu Rave meets puberty or monotony meets beggar style.
I love it. It reminds me of the colouring of birds, The bright male and the more monochromatic female. very nice.
Are they French ? I know this picture was taken in NYC but they really remind me of some students we have here. Even their face and hairstyle look very familiar to me.
cute, young, collegiate. her ensemble is very jcrew. the guy's shoes work well with the plaid shirt.
People in bigger cities will not be as impressed by this. for me this is average, since EVERY kid in San Francisco dresses like this. This is hipster uniform, not beautiful fashion.
HI MEREDITH!
i went to high school with that girl and can attest that she always had style beyond this world.
the accusations of "hipster uniform" are just as baseless as accusing the majority of sartorialist subjects as "yuppie uniform." the extension of her black sleeves beyond the coat parallels the almost waistless emergence of her black leggings out of the base of the coat - a balance framed perfectly by the matching brown of the coat and the shoes. and i know it's been discussed, but the pink ribbon is such a killer touch too. there's excellent composition to it all.
and, not to be redundant, but the shrunken-flannel-as-cardigan really does deserve mad props.
HI EVAN!
Shave your mustache. Awesome.
he looks great! if i saw him walking down the block my head would turn :))
I like the way the pattern and colors of his jacket/pack seem to have fallen through his skinny pants and spilled out onto his shoes. I also like the way her warmth and simplicity is the perfect compliment to his cool complexity, and their sly smiles suggest a shared secret with the photographer. They remind me of my own kids, who possess a similar brand of easy sophistication.
Such excellent kicks on the young man; someone with really good taste must have picked them out. I mean, maybe.
He was a lot cuter before he had a moustache, but I do like the outfit.
shoestring belt.. i love it.
Anyone know where I can get shoes in a similar style to hers?
i think the brown washes the girl's complexion out. nothing special, stylish, different about this at all. very boring. nothing makes this stand out, but on its own, all i can say is that she looks comfortable and warm.
the guy on the other hand looks friendly and fun :)
to be honest, im more curious about the person squatting behind this couple!
Love their (especially his) look of bemused self-consciousness.
They look adorable together. They're having fun and doing it on a thrift store budget - very stylish.
