One New Orleans hub that I feel is often totally ignored by locals is the famous Canal Street. Once the place to go for entertainment and shopping in New Orleans it is now known for it’s mammoth hotels and flashy but sketchy pawn shops and stores that sell wigs. Not all is lost, however. With the grand re-opening of the Joy Theater, renovations at the Saenger and some new stores opening in Canal Place I feel that one day Canal Street will reemerge to it’s former glory. It is this hope that fueled my latest street style search. Thankfully it’s not difficult to spot fashionable individuals on Canal Street.
