Architecture and Beauty Meet

confidence, greens, women

Wow! Regal strength are the words that come to mind when I see this picture. The architectural backdrop, the hard shadows, the clean cut of her outfit, her direct gaze. I feel as though the camera has managed to capture, at this particular moment in time, a woman’s overwhelming confidence and grace. This woman is from Mexico, and although it was difficult to converse, she has communicated volumes with one simple stand. Stunning.

Colour Blocking Knock-out

bold colours, shoes, women

Blocks of colour and clean lines – it’s a look that is so simple yet so compelling. The nude shoe is a great foot frame, and you can just glimpse the gorgeous indigo lining of the jacket in the turned-up sleeve, which looks so delicious against the filmy seafoam top. This woman is also wearing an intriguing necklace that features a shark tooth that she got from her grandfather. The stories make the outfits even more interesting, don’t they? She is a freelance stylist and works at Blubird clothing shop.

Bright Days Ahead

This woman gets paid to look good and she’s obviously good at her job. I caught her just before Action! on a piece on Vancouver style. I had no idea that she was “working” when I approached her. I love the florals with the ruffles (and the ruffled dog), and the wonderful tangle of accessories. What this look says to me is: sunny, young, smart – everything to look forward to.
