Now that the whirlwind of fashion month is over, I've been ogling, digesting and dreaming about all the runway looks I'm excited to try in 6 months' time. But it's not just the runway looks that have me sartorially excited. The street style set during fashion month never fails to provide us with plenty of seriously cool fashion inspiration, wowing us with trend-forward looks that we can't wait to copy ASAP.
