Hipsters, while not the glorious peacocks they were in , are still everywhere. Just own it if you do. Or at least pack a good pair of kicks. Welcome to New Yorker priorities, folks. Some of the best things in New York happen on the spur of the moment, and navigating the subway just to change your busted kicks takes a lot longer than you think. For winter, a nice pair of chukka boots might be the coolest thing you can wear that will also keep your feet warm and dry in the weather.

I like to add a pop of color with a bright red or yellow hat, a la the masterminds over at Moment , but you do you.
As for bottoms, keep it simple. A nice pair of travel pants like Bluffworks chinos or Outlier slim dungarees are stylish yet understated for a great all-day look. Ladies, black jeans or leggings will blend right in. The kid with the Mohawk panhandling on St.

In a city this dirty, it's hard not to when it's the easiest thing to look good in. At the very least, I can muster the enthusiasm to pair a dark look with a colorful clutch or my new forest green suede boots. Even if they do look black.
