Denver style!

I love seeing the stylish people that I meet on the streets out and about during the course of the day!

This is Becca who works at the law firm a block from the Fashion Denver office. The beginning of the week it was 3 degrees. Yesterday (when I took this photo), it was in the 50’s.
