Jessica Monroe: current trends favor vintage styles, Franklin Road, Roanoke

Name: Jessica Monroe

How would you describe your personal style? “I like to try new and different looks. I think I’m fairly trendy so I put together looks that I feel are new.”

What’s this outfit’s signature piece? “My polka dot shorts.”

Where to get it: Target

Occupation: Buyer at Advance Auto Parts

Age: 24

Location: Franklin Road, Roanoke

Date: Saturday, May 26, 2012

Time: 4:12 p.m.

——————-

What caught my eye: Jessica’s style was great, it’s something I’m more accustomed to seeing in Washington, D.C. and Charleston, S.C., where people get the whole vintage mix with modern trends.

Funny thing here is she got everything at Target , so I guess it’s safe to say current trends are playing on a lot of vintage styles right now.

    I absolutely love this pic!! I can’t believe this was taken around this area, it looks like she is from NY or something. Stunning.

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.
