New York Street Style: Pleasant Surprise at Starbucks

As I was on my 45 minute break from Lush I decided to head to the local Starbucks in SoHo. Pushing through the crowds of tourists and almost getting hit several cars, I finally made into the powerhouse coffeehouse.

As I waited in line, one of the first things I noticed was a lovely lady sitting down sitting her iced coffee. She incorporated the trend-to-be: a long, draped dress with a cropped leather jacket and some killer wedges. I thought to myself, Grow some balls Luis and approach her before she leaves, and I did.

I found out that her name was Shanell and that she currently lives in DC. She mentioned that she travels to New York a lot and hopes to move soon. I kept drooling over her Louis Vuitton Evidence sunglasses that all the big time rappers made big.

I'm all for someone who is effortless chic and Shanell definitely fits that criteria. You can follow her lovely instagram @nellynnassir. Thanks to Shanell's friend for taking the picture above, reminds of fashion week.
