She is gorgeous. She looks like spring in summer. The colour of her dress and her smile are beautiful. She manages to capture a spirit of the past and bring it to life.
I love how joyous these pictures from Governors Island are. This girl here shows how sticking to monochromes can be anything but boring– that color pink is so divine.
The pink polka dot dress and straw bag is normally not something I would gravitate to but she looks absolutely beautiful in this! So fresh and perfect for a summer day :)
That dress looks great on her slender frame. I like the contrast of her short curly hair with her floaty dress and dainty accessories. It's a great mix of spunk and femininity.
I want to hang out at the Jazz-Age Dance Party with this suave lady and the dapper chaps in the previous posts! Scott, could you tell those of us not from NY (or America, for that matter) a bit more about this most fabulous looking of events? Not much solid info on net.
It's like a garden party dress, frilly and sheer and with polka dots. The bag is right for it, being straw with the pink flower on top. I love the shoes with it. She is all dressed up and with somewhere to go.
Ah! This is beautiful. The dress is so gorgeously feminine. It's strangely refreshing not to see a floaty dress paired with biker boots or a tough leather dress. It's just pretty, and there's nothing wrong with that! I really love this, thank you. :)
One of my favorites on your whole site. I love this dress. She is absolutely beautiful! Her skin looks so amazing with this color…I love how feminine the whole look is…yet she doesn't over do it! A classic look
The comments are definitely filtered. This outfit is boring. She's pretty but the outfit is boring and typical. Weren't there any people who were a bit off kilter and interesting there?
I don't think the comments are filtered. Does everything have to be edgy? I think people are just responding to a young woman who looks happy, fresh and is unconsciously pretty and not trying to look cool. I'm a fan of the off kilter most of the time, but this photo still knocked me off my seat.
Yep – that's what a pretty girl should wear in the summer! I'm in love with her pink flats and they look wonderful against the color of her beautiful legs. Also, her bag looks vintage (or a vintage repro) and I love that. Great outfit, great photo. Great job!
Oh my. What a beautiful woman and CUTE dress on her. Thus far, my favorite photo of clothing on this blog. I love her smile. Now, let's find the same (sans dress) on a handsome male model!
This woman is simply gorgeous. I love her bright, feminine color choice. I love her bag. I love her hair. She has perfect, radiant skin! This woman is a knockout. Absolutely stunning.

And while this woman looks feminine and sweet, she also looks like she would take no nonsense from anyone!
I specially love the way she clutches both her gloves and bag. As if she is used to carry both of them around.
Thank you for spotting her.
