Harley Viera-Newton is the girl we all envy. While she may be smart, beautiful, sincere, and talented - she also has a lust worthy closet that any girl would want to own. Her collection of jealousy inducing items certainly caught the eyes of The Coveteur, and when we ransacked her SoHo pad for her defining items, we were equally as pleased. Viera-Newton grew up in Los Angeles, and just recently, graduated from NYU's Gallatin School of Individualized Study. She's made herself known as one of New York's top DJ's, spinning regularly at spots like Beatrice Inn (R.I.P), Avenue, the Jane Hotel, and Lit. Her effortless style and ultra-cool demeanor has been documented for quite sometime now, as she's been featured in American Vogue, Purple, Elle, Self Service and Jalouse. And to boot, Dior Beauty named Harley as their House DJ and Beauty Ambassador, where she puts together compilations based on the range of cosmetics before they are unveiled to the world. And as one of The Coveteur's favorite girls, she deserves her street-cred stamp of approval, as Roc Nation (Jay Z's music management label) has just signed Viera-Newton as one of their DJ's. Not bad for someone who simultaneously graduated with a double major with Honors in Egyptology and Social Science. Check out today's gallery, as we break down Harley's style - item by item.
These Chien de Collier gloves are just insane. I’ve had them for a few years now and I’m still nervous every time I wear them because I lose all my gloves I refuse to lose these!
I love collecting vintage sunglasses because the shapes and colors are so great (almost all of these are vintage except for the 2nd and 5th). I also adore the Karen Walker and Illesteva pairs, probably because they both have a pretty retro feel.

I am lucky enough to work with Dior Beauty and am a proud owner of a few Dior bags. This one is my favorite. I love the structured boxy shape and the red patent really makes it pop.
I’m a massive fan of everything Tom Binns does, but these silver cuffs are my everyday staples. They are pretty and ornate while still being quite tough.
It was almost impossible to choose just one pair because every one of the designs is better than the next, but I decided on these because the shape is so fun and I love the tortoise-y pattern.
The black jacket is from the 80’s, I don’t usually wear many clothes from this era but I really liked the gold studs on the chiffon-like material, sort of “tough chic.” I found the amazing red coat at What Comes Around Goes Around, one of my ultimate vintage finds.

Christopher Kane is my very favorite designer, I absolutely love everything he touches. I am a huge sucker for gingham so when these dresses came out I died and went to heaven and one wasn’t enough…
This sweater is my favorite color in the whole world and as a result I live in it. I found the bag at an antique fair in Montana over the summer which is funny because I almost bought a very similar one at Opening Ceremony the month before.
I have an extensive collection of vintage one-piece bathing suits that I wear as tops tucked into shorts or skirts. I choose them based on the prints… these are some of my favourites. There are a lot of amazing vintage Alaïa and Moschino ones, but they are tricky to find.
First of all, this photo is incredible, Marmite is definitely a rising supermodel! As a die hard cat lover I obviously went completely nuts for this collection. I think it’s the best print I have ever seen.
My cousin Charlotte Olympia makes incredible heels, and when she made these very high black boots they had my name written all over them. I love the buckles and chunky silver platform, they’re really an incredible looking pair of shoes.
