Street Fashion

-

I have not done a fashion post in quite some time, but when I saw the street fashion at the Bagdat Avenue (Turkish: Bagdat Caddesi) I knew it was time;)




Spring - Summer 2008 collection is airy, chic and relaxed now-a-days here:) My favorite Bagdat Avenue fashion is great... looks comfortable and stylish:)




All we know that streets everywhere in the world takes over our sidewalks, cars pushing pedestrians ever farther onto tighter walking spaces, one except on Bagdat Caddesi.


It spans a great swath of Asian side of the City -where I also reside nearby-. The Street is narrowed from four to two lanes, widening the sidewalks on either side to make more room for strollers and shoppers. It's as you can imagine wide enough, comfortable sidewalks that are always relaxed even when it's crowded, fashion outlets, a plethora of green and lush outdoor cafés and restaurants, bars with gardens as well as easy access to parks, beach and walking paths along the Sea of Marmara. Additionally, many of the European side's most famous hot spots have opened branches in these neighborhoods.

The majority of residences here family-style, and not a lot of young singles living with roommates.



Nevertheless families have children, and plenty of children there are, young hip teens that's which means nightlife abounds, trendy restaurants and cafés can be found around every corner and those with a penchant for high end shopping won't be dissappointed.




It can be said that this is height of suburb but suburb with an urban sense of fashion and a taste for fine foods.




Now I hope you enjoyed my tour of the Asian side's answer to highlife seekers:)
