NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH: The Piazza

POSTED: Wednesday, October 28, 2009, 8:26 PM

Every Wednesday, Critical Mass pops into a neighborhood and finds its most stylish residents.

This week I took a stroll down to the Piazza to explore this favorite Northern Liberties hangout. I didn't bump into Tony Danza, but I did find a few great examples of NoLibs style. Tights, sweaters and tough-girl boots were definite wardrobe staples. This first chic lady donned a gold off-the-shoulder sweater with opaque black tights and suede pumps.
