Today's Style features a 60% unemployment rate. This is an upward trend.

with the exception of dave, i'd say this is a pretty weak edition. the bad photography doesn't help. bring back the king west photographer.

Kirsten would be a really good reason to seek hospitality at the Drake.

Is she hooked up to a steam-punk device to monitor her hotness preempting her shattering the building?

I had no idea Raptors hats were so hard to come by in Toronto, but it's a good thing he snapped it up when he could. You know if the logo on your jacket doesn't match the logo on your cap, there's no way you'll get featured on "Street Style"

Wow!!! Unbelievable insight guys!!!! I can only come to one conclusion.....retarded people read your comments and call you retarded.

These are pretty badly framed and compressed photos. Look at that grain!
umm / March 9, 2010 at 03:49 pm

my conclusion. the drake plays host to a terribly dressed crowd.

People who call there style "Fresh" are annoying.

The only way to truly be fresh is shower everyday and use a great body wash.

I actually did a double take between Bianca and Laura to make sure they weren't the same person.

"I actually did a double take between Bianca and Laura to make sure they weren't the same person."

Silly, isn't it obvious... One wears a ring while the other rocks the bracelet.

Kirsten for the win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, Street Style, when someone says "my bracelet" is important, don't photograph them from the side so where the bracelet isn't - we can't see it.

Also, there is absolutely positively nothing stylish about Mike. The guy behind him in the blue plaid shirt is pretty cute, though.

I agree Matt Stasoff "fresh" is kinda generic unless you use great body wash.... what's your style Matt? Too bad Matt skipped out on english class in high school and can't spell "Their"???
