Jersey Shore Street Style

In honor of the July 29 return of "Jersey Shore," we hit the boardwalk of Seaside Heights, NJ, to see what the juice heads and guidettes are wearing this summer.

Between GTL, scoping the Shore Store, and most importantly, fist pumping like champs, we were able to find some great Garden State style.

The best dressed by far? Snooki, JWoWW, and Sammi, who passed by while we were shooting, rocking dresses and heels to cruise the boardwalk. MTV was also shooting, so the overly tanned trio had no time to stop and be honorary street-style participants.

While one woman described Shore style as "unique and couture," another said it was "mostly guido with booty shorts and revealing tops." Hmm... seems we've got ourselves a situation.

Browse the photos in the below gallery and judge for yourself.

They don't wear sarongs in New Jersey? What kind of state has a beach and no sarongs? Quick send all of those beach-challenged Jersey types to Waikiki on Oahu. I can never go wrong with all my sarongs! Add a lei and I'm on my way. Gonna party the island way on the mainland 48!
