With fashion weeks worldwide upon us, the quality of street style has increased exponentially. Especially with the presence of this fiery red head - Taylor Tomasi Hill, the artistic director for Moda Operandi and previous style and accessories director of Marie Claire.

However, a few key items, paired together with her signature flair will ensure that you can steal the spotlight and gain some ooh's and aah's from your co-workers, boyfriends, girlfriends, or passersby.
