This works for her, but I’m not a fan of the shapes here: such a big skirt and long sleeved t-shirts… I do like the idea of breaking white with rainbow colored accesories.
This is a typical example for something looking very good, but not funcionate at all. The guy on the bicycle behind wears a simple T and this lady has also a flip-flop on, so it was surely not that cold for this warm shawl.
She’s a head-turner, as evidenced by the man on the bike! What I like is that she didn’t junk up the whole out fit with scads of accessories around her neck in addition to the great shawl. I love the bracelets –just a nice touch.
Maybe she should consider getting the skirt shortned by and inch so it doesn’t become completely ruined by dirt. Also… some nice brown leather sandals would be better than flip flops.
The look is great. Plus there’s the bicyclist looking back at her (or you? more poetic if it’s her, though). The lighting is fresh and quite appropriate. All around, a job well done!
Thanks for the detail shot, too. It’s a nice touch.
totally beautiful and perfectly weather appropriate. shawls are great items. i wish i could wear head to toe white, but i drink too much coffee and red wine for that to be practical.
Striking and original – she looks wonderful. I love the contrast of detail. We live in a truly multi cultural city yet so rarely have such exotic and beautiul reminders.
very cute! Wonderful scarf that is obviously one of a kind. and a very adorable face. I trulyenvy her individaulity. I bet she does not engage in an ardent search for perfect summer booties like I do. lol
There are so many things to love about this outfit! I love how the gathers on the shirt are running opposite to those of the skirt. I love the vibrance of the colors. They’re already so bright and then they are vamped up a few notches with the white background. I love the bohemian Y ethnic feel with both the pashmina and the broomstick skirt. I love her hair. I love the cycle cop peeking back to see what’s going on and the red fire hydrant that matches her colors’ vibrance. The brightness of the sun does make me think she’s going to get dismally hot, but she just looks so pretty! And the white hot rays match her outfit. Wow!
i actually have that scarf, or one that’s strikingly similar – in weave, shape and colours. weird! i think it’s still fair to say it’s *almost* a one of a kind though…it’s alpaca wool and i got mine in puno, peru.
Flawless. White on white has been a look that I’ve advocated for a long time. The shawl adds just the right accentuation to the white and to the tones in her face and hair color. The bracelets are a polishing touch, completely in character.
She is a radiant child; strong, ethereal, and wildly monastic. But as beautiful as she is, there’s something still awkward about the floor-length skirt in pure white– maybe because it’s too formal in appearance to match it with the white top? I think she would be perfection if the skirt was knee-length.
When I was younger I made of the mistake of thinking that to look distinctive or interesting I needed to dress strangely (which for me meant thrift shopping, Victorian jackets & heavy shoes). The thing I LOVE about this ensemble is how distinctive (and attractive!) it is. But there’s not a single shopping choice she’s made that lies outside the mainstream (well… except for the rainbow wrap). White tee? Ubiquitous. Broomstick skirt? Banal. Flip flops? Same. Rainbow scarf? Hippie dippie (yet but by pairing it with white she’s made it not). What a wonderful expression of delight in color, creativity and individuality pulled together from the everyday. An inspiration. Thank you.
I like this because “It’s her” she’s being who she is, herself. No effort, very happy, natural. I like the 2nd detail shot. Brilliant weaving on the scarf/shawl, looks to be by hand. I love the simple beads, they most likely have meaning to her, a story that she’s a part of. Nice natural hands. Thank You.
It must be warm in NY by now,so it makes me wondering why the heavy scarf? The white l o n g dress works well for a bride,but doesn´t the helm of it get dirty worn on the streets? A nice looking girl though.
Wow! Love the contrast of the white with the colorful scarf. Has a very Latin American feel to it. Also, can imagine a creative bride choosing this as a unique and charming wedding ensemble (albeit a bit casual)
I actually purchased the exact same scarf on a trip to Peru last month! The markets were full of beautiful things like this at amazing prices! I was thinking I would have to wait until next winter to wear my scarf, but it clearly works now when worn like a shawl. Great picture!
I keep getting distracted by that man in the background. I hope he falls off his bike, becuase instead of looking at where he is going, he is butting into other people’s business.It’s New York people, not the living museum.
Strange how a natural look can come out so unnatural. In my opinion, it feels too done, too calculated. However I appreciate the effort to communicate a peaceful atmosphere.
OMG- That is a ONE OF A KIND scarf HAND MADE in PERU– I got it made in October and it was taken from the back of my chair when I was at a broadway show— the IRONY that I’d “find” on this woman. I’m so pissed–
As an ex-goth, determined walker, and magnet for stains, I am frightened of all-white. But I bought a glorious vintage Gunne Sax cotton slip that I’ve been trying to figure out how to wear without being so stark. And so, I am inspired! Cheers.
Her peaceful disposition makes this photo. I love her. Not all style has to be whats “in” and I like that about this. It suits her, and thats what matters
I think maybe the skirt could be just an inch shorter, but to be honest, I like every thing about this outfit. Even the white flip flops. That scarf is to die for!
I just LOVE the use of color here, in the bracelets and Peruvian scarf….it’s not too much but just enough to bring such life into the photo…especially against the white clothing!
1. love the juxtaposition of the coloured scarf on her white “canvas” outfit 2. everything she’s wearing looks extremely comfortable and weather appropriate 3. even the guy in the background is wearing white! 4. that fire hydrant thing really picks up the red.
i love you scott! i don’t know what i would ever do without my daily dosage of your blog.
Tiffy, your stolen scarf may have been hand made, but that doesn’t mean it was the only one of its kind. Obviously, if someone could make one, they could make another.
Sart, this is my favorite post of yours in a while. Lovely.
Color wise its genius, like strokes of a brush on a canvas. But ponder this. What if the canvas isn’t a cute asian girl but an average obesses middle aged woman. You can dress a beautiful person in a potatoe sack and they would still look appealing.
Love it, this is how I wear colour. I love a floor length skirt too, the silhouette is great, really flattering.
Who cares about the flip flops? You guys all seem to have a thing against them. I just want to know why people wear them here (Australia) in winter, but with scarves and coats.
This is so lovely. She looks so peaceful and symbolic. There is such simplicity in her outfit yet it looks wonderful!
I can just imagine her walking down the streets in New York, turning heads, with lots of those skimpily dressed people wondering how she can look so good and show so little.
This is my favorite thing I’ve seen on your blog since I discovered it a month ago. All those colors against the bright white – I would LOVE to wear that!
Wow… Such a beautiful, long dress paired with that dramatic scarf. It looks like she’s about to accept an indie film award, instead of go for an afternoon stroll. :D
fresh-looking, but could give a person eyeglare on a blazing day. good strong colours.. but is that a sofa throw?? Skirt length isn’t very practical for NY streets, is it?
perfection. this woman has executed her outfit as an extension of her personality. of course the color contrast and balance is transcendent. unlike others i believe the lengths on the underlying white garments are beyond reproach. look, it may not be practical, and at the end of the day her hem may be soiled. we’ll never know. but the fact is that sart caught her on the street and for all the impracticality of it her hem wasn’t soiled in the picture. somehow she brought the improbable perfection of a studio shoot to the sidewalk. thanks sart. wish i was there, but i’m glad you were.
I love this, for one reason, the man on the bike behind her is so starring. I like to think he is star-struck b the beauty, its quite romantic. Very “Memoirs of a Geisha”.

Wow… Such a beautiful, long dress paired with that dramatic scarf. It looks like she’s about to accept an indie film award, instead of go for an afternoon stroll. :D

fresh-looking, but could give a person eyeglare on a blazing day. good strong colours.. but is that a sofa throw?? Skirt length isn’t very practical for NY streets, is it?

perfection. this woman has executed her outfit as an extension of her personality. of course the color contrast and balance is transcendent. unlike others i believe the lengths on the underlying white garments are beyond reproach. look, it may not be practical, and at the end of the day her hem may be soiled. we’ll never know. but the fact is that sart caught her on the street and for all the impracticality of it her hem wasn’t soiled in the picture. somehow she brought the improbable perfection of a studio shoot to the sidewalk. thanks sart. wish i was there, but i’m glad you were.

She’s adorable! However, I echo the others in that such a full length, volume-heavy skirt and scarf overwhelm someone as petite and slim as she is.

I love this, for one reason, the man on the bike behind her is so starring. I like to think he is star-struck b the beauty, its quite romantic. Very “Memoirs of a Geisha”.

i do like the purity and lightness this girl seems to emanate (it is rare indeed)…but the outfit i do not like and would never wear.

Love the colours, the scarf, the bracelets, and her own beautiful colouring. However, the dress itself is just too much dress.
