High style Americana. It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. What fabulous lighting! Love the black stockings, shoes, bag and bangs. I'm feeling very patriotic – having been born on Memorial Day, this photo speaks volumes to me.
these governers island photos just keep getting better theyre all beautiful! is it some kind of event? I dont know it being english but it looks like something id love
GORGEOUS photograph! It needs to be in a magazine. And I love the horizontal stripes contrasting with the vertical. Who says you can't mix your stripes?
j'adoreeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!! This dress is so chic, but so unconventional at the same time mixed with the derby shoes. She reminds of a 30's version of Maggie Gyllenhal…
I am curious about these series each time I see it. Where do all these people get these perfectly era-appropriate clothes? And where is Governor's Island, and does it have its own weather system?
The lighting in this photo really captures the serene moment the camera is having with the subject. Wonderful lines in the banister and dress. Reminds me of a quiet summer afternoon in North Carolina.
very stunning. this style is gorgeous, and goes perfectly with her face and figure. she looks like she stepped out of a european editorial. very beautiful.
I love that bag! i have a same kind of bag but it's black. the sad thing is that I've been using it for three years now, non-stop and it starting to brake apart. Docktor backs rock!
Thank you so much for this absolutly perfect shot! The shadows, her dress, the handbag, shoes and pose are just beautiful, very Gatsby, very stylish…thank you…..
Fabulous…. but question: is that a dress, or baggy shorts? Look a the dart on the left leg, and the way it blouses out, esp. at the hemline. If this is a shorts jumper thing, I want one. How sweet!
It is a stunning visual story as you scroll down the picture to see the horizontal stripes of her blouse followed by vertical stripes of her skirt almost mirroring the vertical columns. The shadows that extend the stripe effect is the perfect finish.
(For those who are curious about the brogues, Church's (UK) does them for £210. Or if you don't want to splash out, go for Topshop ones. If not, Melissa does plastic versions as well)
please…everybody…help me!!!what's governors island?i don't understand this phenomenon…ok,i know, it's a island in new york…but why are the people there looking so special…it's such a great retro-mix…it's like an other dimension…50 years before.are all people on this place look this way?is this a requirement to enter governors island? greetings from germany. ginsberg
I adore her hair, but I feel like her outfit would be better with red pumps and some sort of semi long necklace – perhaps a golden heart necklace or an antique locket. The bag is great.
one of the most balanced composition you have made: colors, lines, light… and the one with the most calming effect and definitely one of the simple but stylish one
June 6th & 7th, Saturday and Sunday, all day: Michael Arenella and the Dreamland Orchestra Presents the Jazz Age Lawn Party All weekend long, Michael Arenella and His Dreamland Orchestra will cast a magical spell of hot jazz and open-air merriment that will delight the whole family.

Admission is $5 each day (free for children under 5).
It would be perfect if it were not for the bag that looks out of line with the strict monochromatic look. When you put bag next to the shoes the outfit speaks of a bank heist rather than an idle afternoon on an island.
