New York City’s Lower East Side is filled with mixtures of old and new, from architecture and storefronts to fashion. In this episode of ITK: Fit Check, our host and resident fashionista Aimee Kelly (@byaimeekelly) takes a trip to the East Village to find out what drives New Yorkers’ keen sense of style.

“If you’re ever looking for a place that’s ahead of the curve, this is the place to be,” Aimee says. “Obviously, I had to choose an outfit to match the neighborhood with a fun and upbeat look.”

First, Aimee chats with a New Yorker named Jean, who is dressed in colorblock Karhu sneakers, Dries Van Noten trousers and a quilted colorblock jacket bought from a friend’s store in the neighborhood.

On another street, Aimee meets Louise, who sports wide-leg Telfar jeans, two scarves draped into a top and a leather bag from Italy. Louise describes her personal style as “comfy and classy.”

“How has the Lower East Side impacted your style?” Aimee asks Gabriel, who is wearing high-top Nike sneakers, baggy camo pants and a zip-front jacket.

“I think the kinds of people that are around here, for sure. It’s a very young crowd, very hip kind of people,” Gabriel says.

Watch the latest installment of ITK: Fit Check to see these looks and more that Aimee found in NYC’s Lower East Side.
