I decided to take a new approach to "street styling" this week. Usually, I set some time aside at some point during the week to go out and see who I can find. This week, however, I just went about my everyday business and found people as I went along. The following 6 pictures were taken at some point during the past 4 days.

Lisa's boots rock! Especially in combo with the big faux pearls.

Richard and Jenny make me giggle.

I've seen Blake's pants everywhere; I have the same pair in flannel (that I bought 5 years ago).

Laurie reminds me of Amelia Earhart. Someone get her some aviators.

Kaillie looks great. A question ... Is wearing brown shoes with black clothes being a fashion no-no only applicable to men?.... The colour combo on kaillie still looks good.

if you pay attention to colour combo rules set in place by the universe knows who, then you are doing yourself a disservice. if you think it looks good, rock it. you just need attitude.

blogTO, you will never be able to overcome your poop. but this is the best style posting yet. most people look tolerable. most outfits are colourful. no pictures are from the financial district; overall this is a post on the plus side. and richard and jenny's band is good. i also know moe and he doesn't sell bagels; he sells crack. check your facts.

Autumn is certainly Fashion's best season. It's neat to kind of "meet" these people through your lens. And a nice lens it is! I may not agree with everyone's choices, (Uh.. Blake?) but the pictures all look great. Keep it up.

congrats to "r&j" on being the first people featured in street style to actually bother defending themselves in the comments. Don't you know that the number one rule of being scene is not caring what others think? Tsk tsk.

Exploiting young women?? Looks old enough to me. I'd do her. Keep the ad there.

HYPE - No seriously, this impressive (apologies for the lookbook reference). I've disparaged this feature before for being "dowdy" and "k-martesque", but I love the direction you are going in. You have featured some very unique and original look, and are finally proving that some people in Toronto have style

I wonder what a shoot would look like of those who criticize all of these people.

I like these little features, thanks for creating them.

I have those jammie pants too and I actually posted them on a fashion site as a joke and everyone RAVED about them. I lied and said they were Yohji Yamamoto.

But ya, that print is my favourite tartan. Has been for years and this year, it's gonna explode.

What I like most about this one is that everyone seems to have dressed deliberately, instead of just copying an outfit from a catalogue. A lot of the previous ones were really ordinary.
