Juraj Bartoš has been a photographer for 40+ years, mainly on the side of street photography. He may be one of the oldest Slovakian photographers to record fashion trends in the 80s up to today as well as the daily life in his own neighbourhood. Looking through is blog, he has easily become of my favorite street photographers. His fashion photography is without a doubt my favorite style, not posed, and not stalkerly either. All his subjects seem relaxed and comfortable , albeit a little surprised sometimes. His local Bratislava Street photography is an awesome insight into his world and daily…

Fashion Icon: Ze! – Electropop Glam-Core Awesome!
Ze! is the Fashion Icon of the week here at Street Fashion Worldwide and there’s no need for an explanation. Her outfits scream ZE! and reflect her electropop glam-core music and personality in a colorful and memorable way. No one can resist her eye-poppingly original outfits or her highly danceable up-beat music and personality – not even those of you who like to keep things a little more conservative. She will grab your head and yank it in her direction, leaving an imprint of neon and wow in your mind forever! She reminds me of my obsession with the 80s…
Simpel Watches With a Timeless Kick
The folks at Simpel have certainly come up with something genius in the form of their Simple Switch Watch! Their take on the timeless timepiece perfectly captures and encapsulates the zeitgeist of yesteryear, the ’80s slap bracelet’ and the ‘switch and mix’ watches – two things I cherished greatly as a ratty banged 80s kid. The watch itself emulates the classic slap bracelet that we all have no doubt attempted to emblazon upon our wrists at some point or another. The thing with these watches is that they’re far less likely to end up underneath the sofa bed and be…

Holga-Rific Thursday
We love Holga photos and not enough people use holgas for fashion! We found a girl from the group who also happens to be a designer living in Israel. Her, Dania, and her partner Yoram base their fashion takeover in California and Tel Aviv. Their jackets, dresses and accessories are made with the highest quality deadstock material sourced from around the world and they work with artists to create material never before seen or conceived whenever possible. Not everything in these photos is their current stock, but they are some of the coolest photos. This was a Holga blog first…
Mexico Blog Love
We were recently contacted by a blog in Mexico about a link swap. Finding out about blogs or shops in Mexico is not something that happens very often and when I was there last I didnt have much time to shop in Mexico City. Cool Hunter Mexico – www.coolhuntermx.com is a great example of a street fashion blog for many reasons. They’re really original in their presentation, as if influenced by but not imitating every other street fashion blog out there, they show details in each person’s outfits, highlighting not just the overall outfit but the jewelry, pins, unique cuts/details and even…
Paper Wallet, a Fashionable Earth Day Solution!
No one can deny that everyone is getting really serious about eco friendly style and something that goes hand in hand with eco-fashion these days, is simplicity. Just in time for earth day and in the spirit of saving money (only $9-$13.50 with my promo code streetfashion) and the planet, Paper Wallet is my choice for 2010. Paper Wallet proves you don’t have to be a hippie to be eco friendly. I spent the last 10 years in Portland, Oregon. A place that although hip in ways, has given environmental fashion a bad name. Between hippie-wear, the overstock of olive…
