post a commentAh yes, very nice!...but just a thought...would like to see a newer look for her lovely hair..
this is great! I'm from Sweden..this blogg is really great. just wish we had some of the cloths here. love her jacket!
So stockholm. That is a very common look in stockholm for the moment. Nice but a little bit boring.
ok Johanna/Johan
Thanks to Sweden! but you two Swedes got to get together and decide if this look is or is not popular in Sweden
Delightful! In reference to "luvsunflowers" at 8:35 AM: I happen to like her "older" hair with her sharp-cut clothes. It softens the look, and makes her open, sweet face very approachable. I abhor the "total" look in fashion (read: "overdone")-- it's a grand, unexpected touch when something is slightly unpredictable... maybe even slightly askew. In closing, she looks gRRRRReat!!!!
I absolutely love this look! And she is wearing the bag, not the other way around. The black provides the perfect background for a punchy accessory and her overall silhouette is just gorgeous. Think Grace Kelley in one of her classic Hitchcock getups! I want the whole outfit.
Also Swedish...it IS a popular look in Sweden but very few people in Stockholm look as fab as she does!
Her jacket is excellent. Her smile is lovely too!
Also Swedish...it IS a common look in Sweden but very few people in Stockholm look as fab as she does! Classic - not boring.
Her purse IS the look. And she's also gorgeous, that's why everything looks perfect. She's slim and tall enough to use this kind of coat, which looks hideous on shorter women.
oh no, i beg to differ. This outfit is not very Swedish at all!This is something you find among the streets of Rue St Honore in Paris!
She looks amazing though.Its hard to pull this shape off, but she had done a good job!
To be so young and put this together so well is very refreshing. The handbag over the arm suggests perhaps some presentation coaching-I hope not.
This is why coats are always best first impression.
Maria said it before me, It´s common but the swedish girls don´t wear it that stylish
Love the proportions on this look...the skirt, the shoes, the bag. I want it all.
Definitely a European thing going here. Love her sense of style combined with her sense of effortlessness.
Very nice ...Very nice indeed.
Gracias Senor S.
A very nice image and your subject would be chic and photo-worthy on any street in the world
She does look interesting, but she's a woman, not a girl.
Oh...the Bag!!!I love it!I love Chloè!!!It's so perfect,like her look!
OMG! LOVE! She looks fabulous!! And this look does not look swedish at all . . . Very parisian . . . In any event, I love it.
true elegance and what a lovely smile.
i'm sort of glad she doesn't wear ancle boots.
it's unfortunate the london high street has ruined this jacket-they are producing SO many, most terribly tailored. they aren't nearly as full or as nice as this one.
a lot of this is HER, she's very elegant, as someone else mentioned her wearing the bag, she's WEARING the whole look, as opposed to it wearing her. very nice.
Wow so much debate, so many comments!
Outfit to die for, dislike the bag.
Thanks for all the great images Sart!
Lovely -- but surely she's a woman, rather than a "girl"?
Yes
she is a lovely women - i stand corrected
well.... as seen from southern europe, I actually think it's more a kind of waspy preppy chic than european chic, like something you could picture Charlotte York-Goldenblatt in.
;-)
Actually I think a shorter stouter woman could get away with this look as well.
The top and bottom colors don't cut her in half. As long as the jacket flares out a bit and the skirt is straight she's going to have her waist accented.
I don't know about a larger woman with the bag. Sometimes more around the middle/bottom isn't so flattering.
Fantastic. What a great balance in proportion, and what's more-I appreciate the youthfulness about her. Her look is polished and elegant without any note of constraint. I try to go for this as well, at the age of 21.
I like that her shoes aren't platforms or wedges or round toes :)
that had better be a real chloe bag.
Isn't that that Rachel Roy trench?
Great look! Almost like those lines Dior was famous for on the 50's.
This is the first time I've seen anyone on your site wearing something that I own! The jacket. (Well, if it's not identical, it's pretty close.) She wears it well and I'll follow her lead with the pencil skirt...Hot yet elegant.
i think she looks wonderful. yes, she does have a little charlotte goldenblatt vibe, but she is much cooler than charlotte -- the lines of her jacket are very european, not at all american prep. charlotte would never wear the bag, either -- a status bag, yes, this bag, in this color, no -- but i have to admit it is my least favorite thing about the look. i simply prefer bags that don't scream out their names (and price tags). well, except the birkin and the kelly and anything at all by guiliana di camerino.
I'd agree with Waspy preppy chic. Because of how I was raised, I have a hard time with the black/brown mix, but it looks good on her.
such an lovely, elegant look--the pencil skirt paired with the voluminous jacket. it's rather difficult to execute when you're petite, so i really do envy the leggy ladies who can get away with it!
A smaller, more elegant bag would suit this great ensemble perfectly. She sure is lovely.
Thanks Sart, for making me happy every morning. I could easily skip my breakfast, but I would never skip my Sartorialist and cappuccino every morning!
I see Charlotte Goldenblatt with the status bag - particularly in season six!
About the bag: normally I would hate a brown-bag with an all-black ensemble. I think the fact that this is tan, rather than chocolate brown, helps it out, and it just makes the outfit "pop". A black bag would have been so boring and, as someone commented, much less Hitchcock than this.
She just needs her hair in a chignon and a little veil over one eye...
she looks amazing!!!
; )
Nice, but I'd like to see her hair up. Maybe a messy French twist to keep things from looking too "studied". A nice look overall, those pumps are spectacular and really polish the ensemble.
The smile makes the look!
gorgeous! not sure about the summerish bag but her pointy shoes are FAB!
Oh, she's so cute! I love her outfit. And I, for one, completely understand why you called her a "girl" instead of a woman -- she exudes a guilelessness that is so young and fresh. Just thought you should know that not all women are put off by the "girl" word.
By the way, I'm totally intrigued by your popularity in Sweden. Have you tried plugging "Sartorialist" into Google Trends, which charts the popularity of particular web searches. Your biggest audience appears to be in Sweden!! Who would have known!
I'm from L.A. but am in NY on business -- your blog inspired me to stay an extra day and roam the streets in order to people-watch. Love the NY street shots even more than the fantastic European shows!!
i love it - looks quite giambattista valli to me (but it's not)...
and while i like the idea of the punchy tan bag on black, i can't help feeling that the slouchy-ness of the paddington bag doesn't really work with the tailoring of her jacket + pencil skirt combo. i'd rather see an oversized envelope-shaped clutch or something like that, imo.
lovely look though, one of my favourites up with the woman in vintage valentino.
Lovely picture, Scott.
I'll definitely stop in my track if she walk pass me on the street!
Usually I don't approve brown with black, but I like how she carried the whole ensemble..
really lovely lady..
I agree with most- love the overall look and dare I say that the "ladylike" look is becoming rare? But don't like the Chloe bag and I think a less obvious make would add a more subtle air.
where can i get a coat like hers???
wheres that coat from , i love it ! so stylish with a hint of cuteness as well!
she should cut her hair , her hair shd touch the tip of her shoulders and , she shoudl blow it real straight! then shed perfect!
She looks like a chic-er version of Charlotte from Sex In The City!
I agree - she looks great ... gorgeous!
