A distinctive overcoat with a fedora and cool slip-on shoes. Great look! The shades add a definite touch of mystery. This man is an industrial painter in Japan.

Sunnies to Socks

bag, glitter, socks, Strathcona Stockings, sunglasses, vintage, women

Modern fifties boho chic? Those sunglasses, the cherry red lips, and the poster-girl complexion give me a vintage vibe. What a long lean line she has created here – your eye flows from the light neutrals on top all the way down to the glitter shoes on her feet. The oversized tote adds a delicious splash of candy colour. And the best for last… This woman is a designer of custom-printed socks and stockings. I’ve included a closeup of her work below. Fantastic! You can buy her designs online at Strathcona Stockings.

Style with a Flourish

hair, platforms, stripes, women, yellow

The perfect pose for this sunny spring style. Despite the dancer’s flourish, those are definitely not tap shoes, but don’t these platforms combined with her towering masterpiece of hair make this woman a stand-out! She had so much energy – I liked her instantly. She used to live in Russia and enjoys paying attention to her personal styling no matter what the obstacles. Let her be a lesson to us all. This woman is a teacher.
