Nicole
Rueda Watts, jewelry designer and co-owner of Reside
Her
fiercely feminine outfit included a
vintage Argentinean crocodile bag (a $50 steal!), a Rodarte for
Opening Ceremony skirt from Riccardi, one of her own necklaces, and
"cheapo" shoes.
Much
like her ensemble, her jewelry designs are
"bold and tribal, mixed with finishing-school qualities." Think
feather collars fit for a modern-day Charlotte Brontë character.
Her
closet contains clothing
she's loved for more than a decade. "Pieces ripen for me." Case
in point: a Norma Kamali crushed-velvet skirt she bought at a thrift
store 10 years ago.

Jennifer
Kolchinsky, nurse practitioner at Southcoast Neurosurgery
Jennifer's
irreverent take on menswear-inspired style was
as effervescent as her personality.
She
paired her husband's tie with
pants from Urban Outfitters, a lace top from Forever 21, a clutch
from a consignment store, an H&M jacket, and five-inch heels from
Aldo - a far cry from the scrubs she wears at work all day.
She's
a total impulse
shopper. Her most recent buy? Red corduroy skinnies from Macy's.

Sam
Dulac, copywriter at Rue La La
Sam
mixed vintage and modern pieces to create
a look that gave a badass nod to '80s excess.
She
wore
Sam Edelman studded heels, H&M pants, her mom's T-shirt, and a
vintage jacket, clutch, and scarf.
She
says her "crazy old lady" style is
not calculated, adding, "[It often looks like] my closet threw up
on me." Amazing.
She
loves the
energy of Fashion's Night Out and can see creative niches emerging
in Boston's collective style. Amen, honey.

Nathaniel
Roberts, fashion designer and student at Fisher College
He
put a youthful spin on yacht-club staples in
head-to-toe J.Crew, topped off with an American Apparel bowtie and
Coach loafers.
This
women's wear designer describes his most recent work
- goddess-like draped dresses - as timeless, unique, and
empowering.
As
for his own style?
It's all about the high-low mix of Ralph Lauren, J.Crew, American
Apparel, and H&M ("the Hmm," as he calls it).
