Comments on "On the Street......Plaid & Brocade, Milano"
She is really cute! The old-fashioned glasses are the BOMB!!!* She rocks!
I could not breathe when this came up! I try to rock that look with these 3d glasses that I popped the lenses out of. I love the way she pulls it off with style and grace! Tres chic!
I like the clothes, a lot actually. But those glasses made me bust out laughing. A little too "Roger Moore" pour la moi.
lover her glasses *_*
Much as I hate to say something gushing since you refuse to publish anything in the least contrary or even light hearted. She is sublime. There; done it!
wow! I really love this. Everything blends so well. She's beautiful.
Amazing photo. Love her skirt and stance; so uncompromising but shy!
The layering and colour combination works really well, with the browns and reds and tan-gold reflecting in her hair.
Xxxc
amazing style!
J'adore.
i would wear this outfit now, well...not now because it's pretty hot here.....i already have the glasess!
What's with this trend of otherwise beautiful people wearing decidedly uncomplimentary eyeglasses? Is it a revolt to chic or a tribute to Terry Richardson?
Great outfit, great mixture of texture and colour. Love the super-geek glasses and haircut!
she looks familiar...
Those glasses are gorgeous! I love her expression too, and the skirt and the bag. Even though it's not "my style" I reckon that's a fab outfit!
One word: AMAZING.
Love. Love, love, love.
Not everyone can pull off those glasses. She can.
OMG she is SO cute! Great personal style and I am loving that skirt!
Wow. Love everything (although I probably wouldn't like the hat on the head). She would actually make me turn around if I saw her in the city center. That doesn't happen a lot.
loving the skirt!
me encantan sus anteojoos! y el sombrero!!
Rockin!!
I admit, I swooned.. great combination!
I would love to see her picture in the hat too. The hat is amazing.
La falda, los anteojos..el sombrero..Todo muy otoñal!
She's beautiful, yes. However, I dislike the glasses, scarf, and jacket as they make her appear like every other hip young 20s. Despite the appearance of the glasses being daring and outrageous, you can find them on every 10th person's face you walk by today. Same with the scarf. From the waste down though(hat, tights, skirt[and i'll include the turtleneck])and her perfect pixie cut- I'd say exquisite.
Oh geeze. This is amazing. This is like, what I try to aim for every day.
She's lovely, and I like the outfit, but having been in high school in the mid 70s, I really can't get behind the hair and glasses.
now she is cool
she rocks!! yeahh great skirt, trendy and out at the same time, can't describe but vintage
Fun and cute outfit. Looks incredibly comfortable! The only thing I don't care for is the glasses.
Well, I haven't had any luck getting my critical comments published, so I'll try with a non-critical one: this is a great outfit, including haircut and glasses.
OOH give me the glasses cheek-chic, so now loving the whole ensemble...edgy
DESIREE
Yes yes yes! Yes to the brocade, yes to the patterned wool jacket, and yes to that thin-striped scarf that so delicately balances out the patterns, textures, and weight of the other fabrics. That hat is just icing on the cake!
Tiene cierto aspecto andronigo, no se sabe si es un hombre o una mujer... uff!!! Mucha mezcla para mi gusto sombrero, fular, gafas, bolso... mucho, pero mucho
I Love this sweter!!
The woman of my dreams! Her glasses are way sexy - and a brilliant move on her part b/c upon intitially viewing the photograph, the viewer's eye is immediately drawn to her flawless face - which is undoubtedly the most perfect part of the day.
I love the versatility of her look - It melds together perfectly, and if she wants to place down her sweater, she is still rocking the outfit.
The glasses and the haircut are a homage to YSL!! They are ingenious and totally inspired and would've justified a feature. But then, the jacket, the scarf, the skirt and that hat. I'm positively drooling! This will be one of my all time favorites, for certain. Thank you very much, mr. Sart.
shes such a great tomboy! love her

The glasses ruin everything else about her look.
The outfit is awesome. Something I'd totally wear. The brocade skirt seems almost like leather. Very cool. However those glasses... I just don't get ugly glasses.
Hmmm.
I like this (said in a Simon Cowell-esque voice).
Not sure why, but it somehow works.
Though not sure how i would feel if she was actually wearing the hat...
Geek chic for women? Why the heck not.
Love it. Not a haircut for most people but it works on her and I love when people can pull something off that the rest of the world just can't do. I like the glasses too. From the neck up she's a female YSL of the 1970's.
Now, as for the hat.... I'm glad it's not on her head, I think it might put a flaw on an otherwise flawless look.
I wore glasses like that in the 1970's!
The woman is well put together except for the keffiyeh. Lose the keffiyeh.
love the look as it is not pretentious, (rare) the glasses age her and if she put on the hat it would be a bit much. Otherwise j'adore.

Oh my god I love it !
As long as she actually needs glasses, I love those. But as an essentially blind person without my glasses, I hate it when people who don't need glasses where them. And the trend bothers me a bit because if I didn't need them, I wouldn't wear them. Either way the rest of her look is fabulous and I would rock that any day.
absolutely lovely!
The outfit is precious, but the glasses...woah. My father wore these from 1977-1987 and I beg to differ. But she's adorable, even if she does remind me of my father!
An incredible mix of textures going on here.
I am digging this outfit so hard... right down to the glasses..
Too me, this is perfection!
Geek chic style !
She does it well !
love love love
Great look, cool glasses!

This girl is super original! I want her to become my girlfriend.
The Hat! Where can I get that Hat?
beautiful girl=beautiful outfit put together=reeking in awesomeness
can't stand those glasses! looks like every other person trying to be cool. thank goodness for this lady the rest of her does show she has her own look.
I like the whole outfit, very well done. But the glasses have got to go: I wear "nerd chic" glasses like those (been wearing them for years already) and whenever I see someone wear glasses like those, just for the sake of wearing them, it highly annoys me, especially since now nobody believes mine are prescription and think I'm falling into a trend.
I love how the creamy tan color is picked up in various parts of the outfit. Very impressive :) And of course her glasses are da bomb.
The hat and glasses make it.
She's extremely cute!
Imagine her without the glasses, something would be missing. I saw these former geek-glasses a lot lately and didn't like them in the majority of cases. She has the right face though, it is not eclipsed by the glasses, but they make it interesting. So I admit in this case, they make the look!
Also, I'm always grateful for girls, having short-hair-cuts. Not every girl should have short hair, but a lot of faces could be more unique and less boring.
I checked the comments to see what the hub-bub about the glasses would be. On her, because she is young and gorgeous, everything looks wonderful. But for us people who wore those glasses in the 70's-80's, they just dont look good. I wore my big ol' tortoise glasses because I thought I looked pretty and cool and that's what people wore then. Now I cringe when I see pictures of myself. I guess I've turned into my Grandma who rolled her eyes when I went out and bought some cool retro 50's cat-eye glasses that I thought were the bomb.
Anybody heard of Erlend Øye, Norwegian musician? He must be her muse:

She has such a pretty face but she hides it under those glasses. Clothes are really great, but the glasses killed me- and not in a good way.
i'm tired of irony (unless it actually is funny, rather than tired). Lose the glasses. The coat is nice though.
She's very cute - makes me think Thelma from Scooby Doo (the cartoons not the wretched live action movies) and that's not a diss!
excellent lesson in how to make the contrived look completely effortless.
LOVE LOVE LOVE
the outfit just comes together so perfectly. and her hair is gorgeous. I don't know why some people are dissing the glasses bc she totally pulls it off.
Very well thought out.
That hair is great, really. And I'd love to see that hat on as well. She's adorable.....
I love this style! And the glasses? I'm getting one like that tomorrow. :)
omg give me a jacket like that!
Amazing. It's very Urban Outfitters. The glasses are sooo cute and i love her hair and the hat. Not a big fan of the bag, but the rest i absolutely adore.
OMG -- it's Velma Dace Dinkley from Scooby-Doo all grown up. Loose the glasses, girl. Everything else is great!
I love this look. the glasses and the skirt are to die for!!!

I don't know. It's like she's hiding behind those glasses and all the layers, patterns, and textures.
Gorgeous! I'm not a fan of scaves worn this way since it has become so cliche on college campuses that I'm sick of looking at them but she's rocking it.
Love the glasses, jacket, and especially that skirt... wow.
this nerd glasses trend is one i refuse to accept. it's just not flattering in any way.
She looks amazing. I love her style sense.
damn cute..
i would have liked to see what kind of shoes she chose to match this outfit! love it!
Almost a Dorothy Hammill wedge haircut. Same era as the glasses
Every. single. element. in this woman's look is simply AMAZING! Would love to have seen her with the hat on as well. Well done!
I like the simplicity of the it. All natural tones!! She looks too cool n fly
i LOVE her glasses!
The glasses I love! very Cleve Jones.
She is cute, the outfit fantastic. But those gushing about the glasses haven't a clue. I've been wearing spectacles for years and was subjected to these as a 10 year old. This is the Hakim Optical free frame selection and were god awful then and even worse now.
love her haircut and glasses!
SOOOO fantastic! And inspiring! A definite fave Sartorialist capture!
This is why I love having a wardrobe of mostly neutrals, because you can keep playing with combining your stuff in new, interesting ways. She did a great job with the closeness of the color values, the textures & weights of fabrics (mostly thin)and last, the proportions which I think are near perfect.
The glasses? Well, just because you can, doesn't mean you should...
Take those glasses off and this would be absolutely adorable. Those kind of glasses rarely work on anyone. I don't like them.
I don't get the glasses either. Mostly because I had to wear adult glasses as a child (big fat head that I had) these merely take me to a traumatic place. Trauma isn't interesting.
The rest of her outfit, now, is fab through and through.
best...in love:X
All us glasses wearers are jealous because she can pull of the look and we couldn't.
Where can I get the fantastic glasses ?
really nice and so convincing ...
i shuld like to see her whit the hat on.
i found her very interesting!
Massimo
This is a perfect TEN! from the hair color..to every single detail in this look.... sooo geek.....she has some masculine look... but still...some sweetness ... she doesnt even look real... its all about charisma... and that ford fiesta on the background... rssss..
she's really pretty.
heelello spiffy! the glasses are 2-fine, but don't under value the way the hair plays into the whole mist-tique... she didn't just roll out of bed with that hair did
i LOVE LOVE LOVE her skirt.
Love the hair.
to much of a hipster look for meee!! you'll find clones of her on NY everywhere!
I like the mix of patterns, the plaid with the strips looks fantastic. My favourite part is the leather skirt, which I could never pull off but looks great on her.

I don't understand the trend with the 70's glasses. I know fashion recycles itself, but these are the glasses we make fun of ourselves (or our parents) for wearing in our ( or our parents') high school yearbook pictures. Blehck.
For me, the crowning point is the crookedness of the glasses.
I immediately thought of Velma from Scooby-Doo - then read the comments and saw I'm not the only one. A much more beautiful Velma of course!
It would be interesting to see her without the glasses. She certainly has a lovely face, and I think the glasses enhance it. For me they draw attention to her flawless complexion and sensual lips.
I love that she is wearing no makeup and her hair has just a fantastic cut then becomes low-maintenance. Everything suits her perfectly.
AND LOOK AT THAT HAT!
meh... unfussed
i would love to see that hat on her!
If she didn't have such a cute haircut, I'm not sure she'd have pulled the outfit off so well. She rocks it...and her bag is pretty awesome.
the awesomeness of this image is inexplicable!
i want to be friends with this girl.
i disagree that she's "too hipster". she looks too smart and confident to be simply buying into something.
Very Breakfast Club...
Nerdy cuteness.
I like the glasses along with the clothes, it's nerdy but still cute.
Adorable. Very comprehensive and well thought-out composition too. A bit risky, but great for her style. I like it.
