love the red patent. The contrast of texture is really beautiful in this outfit; the wool houndstooth, the ruffle shirt, leather strappy shoes, and of course, the bag. love it.
She is adorable! She looks petite, and her clothes are perfectly proportioned for her. Love the ruffled blouse. Only her legs and feet look a little bare compared to the rest.
A very beautiful,artistic picture.The young woman is so chic.Everything matches: the coat, the blouse, the shoes,skirt-a fantastic model and color on her handbag.The girl is cute too.And the most important part of this all-It all looks so easy,effortless.Good!
Great photo. Love the thin light and leaves on the gound. Very autumnal. Scott, you really know how to cast a mood! I like the whole ensemble here. Great shoes. This beautiful young lady has a Spanish look going on. She’s also rocking it in New Romantic ruffles. I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but I really like the colour of her hand bag. It is entirely appropriate.
Why am I the only one who feels unsettled about her bag and outfit combo. All the pieces are fantastic, but for me, The bag just does not work with outfit; the play on volume is not present, it does not contrast the look enough…… I must be a total sourpuss. She is STUNNING and it looks as if Sart channeled a pure mid 50′s moment. Great shot S. Your prissiest fan, Jamesy
This is going to be very picky of me, but if her handbag was fire-engine red it would pop even better against the black and white than the burgundy bag she’s carrying.
Love how you’ve framed this with the autumn trees on either side! That and the red bag are nice splashes of color against the black and white. There’s something so chic about a red bag!
What a fabulous photograph, as well as a great look. And I adore the vintage bag – its color and structure are great against the volume of the coat and the ruffles.
The black checked coat is outstanding but I was rather looking at the frilly details of the blouse underneath. I think it’s because I’ve been looking for a white blouse that looks like that myself! *smile* Cheryl Marie Cordeiro
This is true a true autumn beauty, Paris is magical at this time of the year as you can see the backdrop of nature plays perfectly with the color and boldness of the young woman. It is just spectacular how she is positioned, her feet, the color of that purse really comes out! Chic and timeless in Paris

i think the coat over powers her but check out the blouse she has on underneath and the shoes. now, that is a classic way to be trendy and sexy.
houndstooth…does add to anything here. great shot. i forget how beautiful the garden gets.

don’t love the heavy coat with sandals, but if she paired the coat with boots or even just black heels or flats it would look much more together.
