March 26th-March 29th I found fun

So, I went to Chicago, IL and Pittsburgh, PA during this week. I found that there are more things in this country that force me to want to share it with everyone who is interested. Thankfully enough, my sister Tracy let me use her Nikon camera to aid in this capture.

Between Art Galleries, bike bars, venues, & punk shows. I found fashionably incorrect and vulnerable people and their art at best. Here is a list of what I found to be my bias.


Chicago, IL Southside, Downtown (Art Institute of Chicago), Handle Bar, Club Foot, & Co-Conspiracy Sphere



COLOR- something that I try to incorporate in everything I wear. This door is inspirational.






Ashley at Club Foot - Chicago, IL




Handle Bar- Chicago, IL (Northside, Wicker Park)

-----PITTSBURGH-----



Punx at a basement show.. brings back old time in 2003












Rob Hawk- One person who doesn't give a F**K what other people think about his scent or appearance














Me- trying not to get a double chin
















This guy just has an amazing mustache selling roasted peanuts and hot dogs on the Strip district










This is Dennis- He sells great reprinted photographs on the street in Pittsburgh, PA in the Strip district. He's been doing this for almost 20 years.













This is Corey- he likes Bow ties and punk shows.




The Nite Owls

As well as fashion, I'm throughly amused and convinced that booking is my passion more than anything. Considering school lately has consumed my life as well as travel, I've been having a difficult time finding the happy medium. (Steve forgives thankfully). So, I'm doing my best in working on our blog as well as this one. Considering I'm finding more and more time to manage what's important and deleted the b.s. out of my life I'm getting excited for what's to come in our business. To check out more about our booking and what sorts of Dj set's and parties we're looking to have add our blog. wearetheniteowls.blogspot.com

Not only am I lucky to have such a great business partner, he also aids the fashion side of our duo. Here is Steve's Spring look for 09'

Inspirational Beauty





Above is my close friend Lulu- you can catch her at threecheersforyolandavega.blogspot.com - Yo! I mean, excuse me has also been directly influenced by her imaging as well. She has successfully promoted her visually documentaional view of her life through her blog. Her sense of style and usage of vintage finds never fail to impress. Here, she is wearing an Kensington Market (Toronto) sailor hat with a fitted black pencil length-cut dress.

Nina Takaoka (L) and my twin sister, Ashley Ron (R) are two women who within the last year have encouraged me to begin this blog. Though this photo doesn't suffice to look very fashionable the capture in it's self is vulnerable which in essence is my aim.
So thank you, Ashley and Nina. See you in June


Thanks

Ryan Crowley- My Beginning



As some may know, I've been very interested in the fashions of random individuals in and around our silent city. I've begun to take an interest in Facehunter(an independent fashion blogger who goes around the world photographing people's fashion's on the street). I've taken his advice and done a twist of my own. I've taken photo's of individual people at their vulnerable states which in other words, at their most carefree depictions of themselves.

Above, Ryan Crowley (a Buffalonian) breakin it down at Firebrand (a local footwear store located in the heart of the Elmwood Village at 715 Elmwood Ave Buffalo, NY 14222 (716) 883-1871 www.firebrandfootwear.com). This was at the 'Jig in my Pants' March monthly party-

So, Thank You Ryan for allowing me to post your photo. This marks the beginning of my Yo! I mean excuse me fashionably incorrect blog.
