Ann Le Paints, Shops on eBay

Like any good girl who has ever been shopping abroad, Ann Le doesn't like shopping in New York City. Her skirt was only five euros in Paris (okay, with the exchange rate that's still under $10!), and she made her own necklace. It's no wonder she's the best-dressed freelancer-painter-musician on the block.

High-School Frosh Doesn't Dress the Part

High-school freshman and musician Evan Gonzalez doesn’t have a job, so he must wear within his means. “I like to work with pants a lot,” he muses. “Bleach on green jeans is always really cool, because it comes out yellow.” He is influenced by prog rock and metal, and his hair is a three-year-old project. Find out what Gonzalez plans next for his locks in this week’s Video Look Book.

Combustion Research Will Buy You a Fly Coat

A recent trip to the East Village yielded the Video Look Book’s favorite occupation ever: combustion researcher! Say fuel spills in a subway tunnel. It’s Diem Nguyen’s job to find out how long before we’re all totally effed. When she’s not setting things on fire, Nguyen works with designers to create her own custom clothing. Arson might not pay, but combustion research apparently does. Watch the video for more career guidance.

California Visitor Actually a Displaced New Yorker

California legal secretary Colleen Delee took a break from shopping on Rodeo Drive to wear her Fendi fur in New York, where it’s actually cold enough for animal skins.

Nicole Poree-Zayas Has the Hookup

Fashion-design student Nicole Poree-Zayas gets bored and then dyes her hair. It was blue, but now there’s some purple in it, which matches her striped shirt and skinny jeans. Poree-Zayas is also sporting some Supreme X Nike Blazers, but it’s not like she had to camp out to get them. No — she knows some people. See what else she knows by watching this week’s Video Look Book.

Barrister Wannabe Loves Spending Our Worthless Dollars
