Summer 2015 trend prediction: Tie-backs

The mercury just dropped here in NYC and lots of people saw snow last night (!!!) but we're going to go ahead and report on this trend for Summer 2015 anyway! 

Tie-back tops are already popping up here and there, and we're predicting the trend will catch on in a big way for SS15. 

Skip the Sequins; 5 Alternate Choices for Your NYE Outfit

#1: The Metallic Skirt. Pair a metallic skirt with a black top, then vary up your accessories. For example, grey tights and maroon shoes, or a denim jacket. You want the skirt to pop but not be too matchy matchy.

Street Style: Brooklyn Flea

What we love about this: Um... everything? Great monochromatic shirt/pants combo, punctuated with a bright belt, hat, and glasses (none of which match, which is great!)

Street Style: Brooklyn Flea

What we love about this: Great color combo, and we love the way she dressed down the look with a grey sweatshirt. Also, that necklace! So rad!

Street Style: Brooklyn Flea

What we love about this: THAT HAT! First off, we love everything about this hat. It's a men's hat with a decidedly feminine print... pairing it with a camo print jacket and a winning attitude = PERFECTION!

Street Style: Brooklyn Flea

What we love about this: Feminine dress + casual shoes and a pastel, but not too matchy purse. 

Welcome to The Drift

Thank you for visiting our website! After much discussion, searching and brainstorming/dreaming, we are excited to launch The Drift!

We spend a lot of time in real life and online searching for and noticing trends in fashion, music, pop culture, food and local events in New York City. But, even with so many sites out there, we couldn't find what we really wanted; a one-stop place to see what's new, what's coming up and what's cool right now in Brooklyn, New York City, and beyond.

With all of this in mind, we started The Drift, a place to find what's cool now, what to watch out for in the upcoming seasons and what to do in our beautiful city. We'll feature ourselves, the girls of The Drift, from time to time, as well as our amazing friends who inspire us daily.

And for all of you online-shopping lovers, we are starting Shop the Drift this summer! After years of finding the coolest, most unique businesses, products, and items in our beloved city, we've decided to share some of our carefully curated favorites with the rest of the world. Check back later this summer for updates on Shop the Drift.

So... Add us. Follow us. Love us. Tell us what you want to know about. Live with us in this crazy, grand city and experience all it has to offer.

Until then,

Allison and Jenn, the Girls at The Drift
