Industry people will tell you that fashion changes all the time, but that's only a half-truth: most current trends are rooted in the retro. The saying "there's nothing new under the sun" is more than just a platitude, it's the reality of nearly all contemporary style. Fashion constantly poses the question: how can you update the classics and make them modern and of-the-moment, rather than dated and passé?
The Fashion Spot went on a city-wide expedition, from 125th Street in Manhattan all the way down to Brooklyn, to find out how New York City women were doing exactly that. We focused on a few spots that have historically been centers of creative life and music in NYC, including The Apollo, The Village Vanguard, and Washington Square Park.

-
Red Dress
Daytime glam is as easy as standing out in a red dress.
-
Sparkly Doc Martens
And really, I love everything about this girl's look, from the rolled-up jeans to the scoop neck top to the chunky beads. This is one of those times it's still totally acceptable to say, "I die."
-
Striped Maxi with a Cover-Up
Stripes are glory, guys. (Outside of The Apollo.)
-
Choppy Cut and Collared Shirt
< /header>Saw this girl taking pictures, wanted to take my own picture of her choppy haircut.
-
Patterned Top with Demi-Sleeves and High-Waisted Shorts
An easy and classic way to do summer style. Hair up is a lovely choice. (At The Apollo)
-
Floral Mini-Dress with Puffy Sleeves
Super-glam at a secret spot in Brooklyn.
< /div>Long-Johns and Tunic Top
A topknot completes the look. Really effortless and youthful at Washington Square Park.
Printed Pants
While she was taking photos of the star plaques at The Apollo, I was captivated by her printed pants, which are a slimmed-down version of the ha rem pant. Smart move to pair it with a simple white tee.
Doing Denim Shorts Right
Take a cue from her shades, round-toed flats, and color accent belt.
Matching Mini-Dress Silhouettes
Particularly like the embroidery on the white dress.

Adorablez at The Apollo
Two great things happening here: a simple, long black dress and a denim vest over a floral dress. Both looks are very of-the-moment, but grounded in classic, retro style.
Mod-Ish Shift Dress and Denim
Not to mention: fun with the girls never, ever goes out of style.
Taxi Limo
For your time, a new task for the bucket list: taking a ride in this.
New York Cycle Chic
And yet another item for your bucket list: get a bike and a romper with a cut-out back.
Mixing Staples
Two different takes on perfect hair — and one great use of yellow — at The Village Vanguard.
Oversized Sunglasses and a Silk Robe Dress
Both girls are super cute, but the look on the right is head-to-toe perfection.
Yellow Sneakers with a Fitted Yellow Top
Another great use of yellow, outside of The Apollo
Structured Blue Skirt
Pair it with some boat shoes and a chunky statement bag and you are my hero.
Three Girls Doing a Serious Blast from the Past
New York girls really killing it with the yellow!
BB King's!
To get you in the mood.
Cat-Ete Sunglasses and a Polka-Dotted Dress
Give me polka dots or give me death.
The Apollo
