Fashion About Town: End of Fall Tourist Style

Tourists and locals flaunt autumn looks in downtown Newport.

Even though winter's slowly creeping upon us, tourists still flock the streets of Newport. Although vacationers have traded their sandals and skirts for warmer apparel, they're still adding their out-of-state style to Newport's fashion scene. This weekend, I met four hip sisters from Westchester County, N.Y., who had just shopped at Pink Pineapple and wore sleek, city looks. Philadelphia resident Melissa Petriw sported a fabulous leather BCBG handbag in burnt orange that made me drool. Local favorites: Newporter Kelsey Anderson rocked a hot vintage leather jacket and Salvation Army scarf. Lynn de la Valette, owner of Royal Male, showed off a beautiful Native American necklace made of antique ivory.

Fashion About Town: Sunny Day Style

Stylish gals shed layers, add shades in downtown Newport.

Good day, sunshine in Newport on Friday. With highs in the upper 50s, fashionable shoppers downtown wore minimal layers and their trusty summer sunglasses. The much-welcomed fall warmth gave way to exposed necks, lighter jackets and lots of leggings. This week's favorites: Anne Beneville, who rocked a short gray skirt and ruffly feminine top, and Alison DeSanctis, who paired a sophisticated bouclé blazer with an edgy metal necklace, plaid scarf and distressed jeans.
