What caught my eye: I’m sure you’re thinking Peter’s shoes were the deal maker here. Well, they are nice, I own a pair myself.

Actually, it was the break in Peter’s slacks that I liked. He is wearing slim-cut pants that always look their best when you have them hemmed with no break. Another way to say this; pants that almost look like “high waters.”

With a narrow leg openings, no break gives a nice lengthening effect and shows off your shoes, well worth the shortened inseam.

    I think the style of his shirt is far cooler than his shoes…. very sharp dresser!

About this blog

Welcome to The Roanoke Times' Style Street blog where I, David Verde, will share my street fashion finds from around Southwest Virginia.

How do I do it? I go on a walk with my camera, and when I find people I think look stylish or unique, I stop them and ask if I can take their picture. Although people can be hesitant, nervous and sometimes blush, most say yes.

I make regular visits to Lexington, Blacksburg, Roanoke, Radford, Lynchburg and Friday night jamborees in Floyd. If you see me out, feel free to say hi and pose.

  • J: I feel like this look is extremely contrived. Also, where are the shoes?
