SPOTLIGHT: KAREN LIANG

With the weather getting much colder and daytime lasting shorter in NYC, I find it more difficult to consistently find “street-style” photos, which is also why you will frequently see more Spotlight features. Most of the time, I believe great style is not always found on the streets, but simply though networking and connecting with people/bloggers that may have most of their time consumed by their profession or business.

Karen and I previously worked together while I was at the accounting firm and I fully understand how most of her time is committed behind the desk. Karen also happens to be the first to introduce me to the fashion blogosphere, which I am truly thankful for. It was after she sent me numerous links to random blogs that I fell into the immense world that I sometimes find myself digging deeper and deeper into. And while many have a pre-conceived notion of how accountants are dressed, I always found that her style – even in an office environment – stood out among others.

    I didn’t realize you were a fellow accountant-turned-blogger! I’m not at a firm anymore either, but you never quite forget what it was like. Great work on the photos, as usual.

    I love looking at all of the details of her outfit: the fur collar, the pattern on her scarf, the shape of her jacket, the torn knee in her jeans, and those red boots!

    I love the cape and the fur collar, the combination of those makes a great shape. And the magenda shoes are the point of the look.

    I heart the contrasting textures of her outfit.

    Awesome Prorsum!

    This is just an amazing collection of photographs. Karen’s style is phenomenal – I love the tiny pops of color which sporadically appear in her ensemble. You are an amazing photographer!! :)
