How I'd Style It: suspenderrs

43. Montreal

Number 43 in the 60 City Challenge is Montreal, Canada. I googled Montreal street style and found it to be on the relaxed casual side. This is a good break for me because I have been doing a lot of dressy sets lately. Suspenders seem to have come back, at least in a small way. These jeans have suspenders hanging on the side and the legs rolled up to mid calf -- so cool! The button-down top is made with silk so the outfit is still a little dressy. Isabel Marant's cotton and linen blend jacket has chic buckles, belts and tabs. The brown lace-up boots lend a rugged look. And the Proenza Schouler's brown bag is a very versatile piece that can be used again and again. I top off the look with accessories in antique brass: studded bracelet set, dagger earrings, and a large wire wrap ring.
