Casual Guy Bay Area Fashion

Photograph taken in Vallejo
Look #4 -- Patrick -- Union City, California

Hello everyone!!!  I'm back in San Jose for the weekend and I am on the search to find a couple of S.J. strangers with unique taste to take snapshots of.  Last week before I headed off to Vallejo, I ended up taking some snap shots of my friend Patrick because I was obsessed with his customized sweatshirt made by Tomoko.  He complimented his sweatshirt by wearing khaki H&M pants and his new pair of lace up Toms.

Introducing Bay Area Fashion

Look #1 -- Patrick -- Union City, California --
Hollister, Creative Recreation & shirt made by Patrick
Look #2 -- Natalie -- Belmont, California --

When you hear of the Bay Area, do you ever think of fashion? 

The Bay Area is a fast, growing melting pot filled with diversity, culture and creativity.  No matter what city I am in (in the Bay Area), I find inspiration.  Through that inspiration,  I was compelled to create a three month focus specifically on Bay Area Fashion.  During the next couple months, I plan on exploring different cities, photographing brilliantly dressed strangers and familiar faces and displaying their attire to inspire.  It is the individuals choice on whether to name the brands that he or she is wearing and explain their style and inspiration.  If the brand name is not mentioned underneath the photograph, I will put a link located towards the end of every blog on where you can purchase a similar item that is affordable.  Feel free to leave any questions, comments or ideas!!!
