Natasha... at Charleston Fashion Week

Natasha is one of my friends based in Charlotte, you might remember her from the Charlotte visit on the Street Style Tour. I don't really know how else to put it, but Natasha is one of my favorite out-of-towners, she laughs at my jokes and she's gorgeous. Happy Thursday y'all.

Street Style at Charleston Fashion Week, March 19-23

I got some great news to share. I will be the official street style photographer for Charleston Fashion Week this year (this month actually).













It was completely unexpected, and I can't tell you how honored I feel to have been offered to shoot for fashion week in this capacity. You'll still find posts throughout the week here on Angel's POV, however catch most of the updates following each night at the Charleston Fashion Week website. I look forward to seeing many of you in a few weeks in Marion Square.

Rachel Gordon...One Love Design, Charleston, SC

 For the past 9 months (not kidding, 9 months), I've been trying to figure out the best way to write a short post on Rachel Gordon, a friend and designer based in Charleston. I think its part of the fashion world, you make such great connections with people who you only get to see a few times a year.

In the brief time of knowing her, Rachel seems to just be one of those individuals who are so dynamic personally, and creatively, trying to describe them in a few sentences is quite difficult.

To save time, here is how I will describe Rachel for you.

- Rachel is a incredibly kind, beautiful, approachable person.
- Like most creative people, Rachel is a perfectionest - Example " Well, I didn't have anything to wear today, so I stayed up last night and made these pants." ~ Rachel telling me about her outfit after her show in Charleston last March. (See 4th photo down)

- Rachel makes really rad dresses. (See all photos below)
- Rachel would also like everyone to know that her "goddess" dresses are not just for tall skinny people. (my wife's reason not to try one on before. My new reason to make her try one on anyways and hopefully buy one of Rachel's off white, plunge neck dresses. LOVE!!)

- Lastly, Rachel likes sneaking in Southern based Street Style bloggers back stage at shows because apparently we are OK to hang around.

THE END - on to pictures.

Meet and Greets

In the past year of my street style endeavors, I've traveled to many cities in the South. What I've quickly learned is, although many have impressively stylish residents, they don't have the foot traffic I need to deem every town worthy of hours of walking. That being said, I've gained a relationship with many of these towns, and don't want completely take them off my radar.

Starting next year I'll be scheduling Meet and Greets in cities I visit, at a coffee shop or similar - you come out - we meet - greet - street style moments might happen.

So how will this work?

- Follow Angel's Point of View here, facebook, or on twitter.
- I'll post when and where I'll have my Meet and Greet in your city.
- Leave and comment or send me an e-mail to RSVP for the Meet and Greet. 
- Plan a killer outfit.
- Tell your friends to come.
- Show up and get your fab on!

One of the great things about meet and greets is i get to meet new people in these cities, another perk ( for you and me both) is I'll probably line up a few streetstyle. I just can't resist taking a stunning image.

Cities that will for sure have Meet and Greets in 2012 will be Charlotte NC, Columbia SC, and Washington DC.

If you have any questions, write me at angelspov@gmail.com.

I'm looking forward to meeting some of my readers next year.

Street Style.. The Young Orchids, Charlotte

A few weeks back I was down in Charlotte and ran into a similarly dressed pack of gentlemen, your guess that they are a band would be right. The Young Orchids from Atlanta, which I didn't get to hear them play live, I did listen to them online and defiantly dig what they have going on. Worth your time to check out.

Street Style... "Stopping Traffic" East 4th St., Charlotte

Charleston Preview!!

I hope you make it a point to visit each week (if not daily) all of July where I'll be posting photos from my summer visit to Charleston. The photo above is one of my "After Dark" photos from on the market, with the sidewalk traffic blocking most of the shoot, I felt this would be a great preview for whats to come. I'll be posting one "After Dark" photo each week along with the normal daylight hour fashion finds from Chuck Town.
