What are the upmarket fashionistas wearing, what’s in, what’s happening and who is turning heads and got “something going on” but in a classy manner.

Just 5 photos from the Knightsbridge area with the emphasis on quality and class rather than quantity.  A bonus extra shot featured below taken today whilst passing Harrods who is being called The blue Michael Kors bag fashionista taken on my DSLR from the hip. Instant headline grabber for this edition,

Second Headline grabber for me was the Yellow coat and shades fashionista spotted on the Brompton Rd not a million miles from Harrods. She outshined the others on the day.

Two Tone Hair Fashionista and Asian Fashionista Old Compton Street Soho W1  Nokia 635 Mobile

With the temperatures hovering around the freezing mark last week with the Wind chill factor added in the mix, it’s all hats, scarves, coats and boots with a few exceptions. No bare legs or mid riffs here.

The usual locations appear with Oxford Street, Regent Street, Soho and Covent Garden especially the Piazza providing the goods with a sprinkling of Tourists.

Always looking for something a bit different, someone that takes a few risks, doesn’t follow the herd, isn’t afraid to use colour, has the walk and a number of other factors. Sometimes the outfit is average but still something is going on regardless, they are here also. All photos via my mobile so photo quality is not cutting edge! Latest fashion patrol results below.

Photo above for me was the best of the bunch, class, style, ultra cool with good looks and she had the walk. She really stood out and had her own individual street style!

In this Part 1 for February 2015, the DSLR was ditched, it’s fast but just too high profile, even shooting from the hip. The women definetly don’t look comfortable around it. Will still use a DSLR on occasion, but Siberian February will be mobile month . SO this gallery is a mess around with my Nokia 635 mobile to see what can be gleened off the London streets in fashion terms. Photo quality is highly variable as a result.

Inspiration to get into the thick of the action came from a certain street photographer by the name of Garry Winogrand. Saw a video, watching him in action on the streets. A revelation. I can do that I thought.

So the new learned “street photography” technique to get the shots above and below is basically what I call “in your face” get within 3 feet of a street stopping fashionista, stop dead for a nano second, smile, if they’re not looking hostile stick my mobile in their face, no messing, smile afterwards and walk off as if nothings happened, I’m just checking my Twitter updates in a rather bizarre manner. Objective to get some very close shots to make these women look as best as I can.

Shots taken within slapping distance, but haven’t been slapped yet . ……. but it’s coming. For some strange reason this technique seems to work? Facial expressions include eyes down, indifference, half smiles, he’s a nut job look, too much in a hurry to really care and of course once in a blue moon the daggers.

So what gave we got? Hats, scarves, boots, Selfridges, Michael Kors bags x2, leggings, faux fur, blondes, brunettes, Oxford Street, Soho, Hanover Square, Covent Garden + Piazza and more. General observation. Shiny leggings seem to be the thing at the mo!
