The Sartorialist

Now that type of mixing takes mad skills….love the balance of wooley and floaty. Reminds me of some of the looks in the last Dries Van Noten show ( which I loved) but was dismissed by La Horyn. Still getting over that one!
Thanks for the inspiration on these raw spring days.

Cute, but without color it leaves me feeling flat.

Love the bag and how it is gently worn. Expensive or not, leather gets that patina with use; it is why people should think long and hard before buying a leather item. Whether it is a belt, a jacket, a bag or a briefcase, a leather item should last for quite a few years. Classic lines work best, as in this case! The shoes here are a bit trendier but then shoes do get worn out, especially in walkable european cities. Love the picture. Jorge from West Palm Beach.

i would disagree with ‘flat’. the colours are by no means bold, but all over she has achieved an incredibly harmonious palette, which is in many ways better.

This blog is a gem! I came across it at time.com yesterday and I’m a fan already!

How soothing…calm beauty

She reminds me of one of the polygamist wives from that compound in Texas. Not that that’s a bad thing, I guess.

this bag looks great!

Perfection.

Hey, does she have her hand in her scarf?

Beautiful girl, with a beautiful and effortless sense of style– and she looks like a very young Miuccia Prada…

the bag and shoes are lovely :)

I love the bag and the shoes. Especially the way she matched the white shoes with black tights.

pocket scarf…..sweeeeet

I love this ‘earthy’, natural palette. I love the layers and the hand-made-looking scarf with pockets. And the innocent hairstyle :) The whole is just adorable.

I love this look!

Does anyone know where that bag is from? I love how it is simple understated chic.

This is a cute outfit. Is she Mennonite? or Amish?

i also was wondering where the bag was from! lovely.

she is a miuccia prada apprentice!

when will you come to Buenos Aires ?

this chic makes layering + texturing look tres easy! however, it’s a skill a lot of people lack- including moi… i hope i can create/pull off a similar look this [australian] winter. simply inspiring.

Wow. I seem to be the only one who hates this look. She looks super frumpy. She’s also a weird mixture that I can seem to figure out because it’s between overdone and NOT trying hard enough???? Her hair is really awful for her face, the dress is not flattering and that small sweater on top of it looks very cultish. To pull of the short/big sleeve jacket, one must have a very thinning outfit on underneath it and this ain’t it! Normally love dark tights with white heels, but not with the rest of this. This is also one of the least inspired locations I have seen on this site. Normally LOVE everything you find Sart, but this one I just don’t see the charm at all.

wow lusting after that beautiful bag.. what a great colour! goes perfectly with her lovely dress, but i think some daintier(?) shoes would have lifted the outfit a bit more.. her shoes look a little clunky.. and i agree with someone else’s comment that she reminds me of a young Miucci Prada! wow.

I like the antique feel of it, but that dress is just much too light for black opaque stockings. The fabrics and colours are very dissonant to me.

Gorgeous bag! I think she definitely is channeling a lot of Prada, and let’s face it, that is seldom a bad thing.

I like everything in this outfit, except the dress, in this combination. The color matches great but not the material.

Perfection!

the bad thing about white shoes (as mum taught me) is the fact they get dirty very easily. but i really like the look with black stockings.

i also love the bag. its a great size, and a great shape, great colour, and i also like the texture (or the look of it).

(:

Love the print, as well as the dark tights/light shoes. And the texture of the scarf. The color of the Prada bag is perfect too with the outfit. She’s definitely a pro!

Che bella Italiana! :-)

I like this look as a whole, but I think the shoes make her feet look huge! I’ve noticed this several times with the platformed pumps (I’m sure this is not the technical term, please forgive) and it keeps causing me to gawk.

Since I have big feet anyway (U.S. 9.5 or 10), I could NEVER pull of such a look without looking like a clown.

She, however, looks adorable and unique, despite her magnified feet.

I just realized I have those shoes in black! They are L’Autre Chose – a quiet Italian label that I love. I like the color and texture mix!

you could title this post “mennonite chic, milan.” which is not to say it’s not adorable!

I like the thick tights with the thin floatiness of the dress – i think this is a very modern look.

I really love her bag.

I wonder what she puts in that huge bag?

I really like your dress. Thanks for sharing here. Keep up the good work.
