NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH: The coolest girl in all of Philly?

POSTED: Wednesday, December 2, 2009, 6:51 PM

In this column's past, Critical Mass immersed itself in one neighborhood each week and found its most stylish inhabitants. We're switching things up. Now, this will be a space for us to find fashionable folk all across the city. But we're still keeping the hood theme ' kinda, sorta ' by asking our subjects where they're from and trying to glean which trends are specific to which neighborhoods.

The coolest girl in all of Philly?

Kristie W. (21), a Temple student who lives in North Philly, loves her vintage and knows just how to rock it during the school day. She picked up this amazing fur coat from The Attic in Manayunk.

Robert L. (20), an exceptionally stylish student from South Philly, gets inspiration from The Sartorialist. 'I read a lot of blogs I guess,' he says.

Shivon P. (29), a South Philly yoga teacher, caught our eye for being fashionable yet comfy on a rainy day.

Franz S. (25), a dapper dude from Fishtown, is no stranger to fashion. He works in the industry and says that men's fashion is all about 'fit and proportion.'
