If there’s anything I know about Fishtown, it’s that the “thrifted dress, $400 shoe” combination is a way of life. I don’t make the rules, I’m merely observing. Something about it just seems so right though—the timeless and eco-friendly allure of secondhand clothing married with the elegance of a well-crafted, not too trendy piece is the best kind of high/low.

Not much can be said about this look aside from that, and an obligatory, “I like it.” I’m actually wearing the same thing sans hat (plus a few extra bracelets) for a work event tonight. Elevated Fishtown farmers market seems appropriate for a Brooklyn rooftop soirée, no? I think the appeal of BK style is very much the same: just don’t be a try-hard and you’ve got it.
