Mexico City is one of my favorite new travel destinations. I’ve been there twice in the past year, and I’ve been really impressed with the street fashion there.   Its definitely about to blow up as a hipster travel destination, which I have mixed feelings about, but for now, I feel like it’s all mine. The art in Mexico City is incomparable. There are countless galleries across the city, featuring experimental art that will blow your mind.  Trust me.

Which brings me to Mexico Fashion Week 08, which is taking place right now.  Even better is that Face Hunter has been capturing the attendees, who are more interesting than the actual runway designs if you ask me.

See the rest at Face Hunter.

2 weeks ago I expressed my frustration after returning from a San Francisco trip with not one photo of good Bay area street style. I was dissapointed in the lack of creative style from the local scenesters. I asked our Bay area Threadtrend readers to prove me wrong and send photos of their unique style or that of their neighbors and I got a whopping 1 response!

A reader e-mailed us about www.kanankids.com where you can find photos of young bay area/LA scenesters hangin out and, from the looks of things, doing a lot of thrift scoring.  Nice vintage coats and headwear ladies.  Thanks E.Q!

I need more people! More! Hit us up at threadtrend@gmail.com

Threadtrend ventured out to the see what people were wearing on the streets in L.A. on Saturday At M.O.C.A. for the Murakami art exhibit. Style was not “hanging” around like the art inside, as we thought according to prior trips to the Museum. After a successful day of thrift store shopping and a confusing search for something to eat through the balls of Los Angeles,We both thought that the “Fashionistas” and “Hopsters“that would flock to the most talked about art shows to hit L.A. in a while, would be the antacid to the “kind of” scrumptious Mexican food we settled for, but we had no luck. On that cold and somber afternoon , we figured that all of the Scenesters at the Murakami show, forgot to pick up their dry cleaning that morning.

I mean, our time was not completely wasted, with both of our stomach’s full and some cute “thrift scores” in the car, We sat outside through the shuffle of some “questionable” outfits and even Some fashion 9-1-1’s, especialyl by a girl wearing TEVAS sandals and not in an ironic way (at her age…pshaw!!!!! she should Know better!”).

Here are some of the slim pickings we thought were “Threadtrend” worthy:

YUM, YUM,YUM…How do you spell Cute skirt? M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E!

Cute Stir up Leggings, finally! someone Knows how to do L.A in the Fall.
