We wandered around East Austin on a Monday afternoon to capture the Austinites who live, work, and spend time on one of the city’s more creative corners. Whether they’re sporting some quality thrift finds, on their third pair of tried-and-true denim jeans, or rocking some handmade accessories, these locals share a love for expressing their sense of style.
