Street Style, The Gaslamp: Parrots, Cougars, and Little Black Dresses

Siobhan Braun, August 31, 2012

While in the Gaslamp last Friday night I witnessed a guy vomiting on the street, was approached by an inebriated woman who demanded I trade my boots for her tacky heels, and saw this guy:

People that go out in public with pet birds have always made me nervous. I was alarmed to find this guy, in Ed Hardy inspired clothing, casually walking around downtown on a busy Friday night. He refused to provide me with his name or any other personal detail because he “hates newspapers.”

I spotted 39-year old Zena in a Pedi cab at around 10pm. She told me that she is single and her favorite wardrobe piece is lingerie. Alrighty then.

Cynthia and Elizabeth, 22 and 24-year-old sisters, were heading out to meet friends for a birthday party. Both ladies cited the little black dress as their favorite wardrobe piece.

I'm surprised you got that close to a bird.

Me too. The bird guy thought I was insane because I was super skittish around his nasty parrots.
