I love it! She’s having a very Oliver Twist moment. I feel like you would never see this in New York – well, Williamsburg.

I agree! although when in New York you are so surprised by some people this might be somewhat normal compared to what others might wear there.

I like the expression on her face. Her pants are so funny, and what makes it even quirkier is the red handkerchief coming out of her pocket, it’s just not something you see everyday.

For me this isn’t style – it’s a costume

I see how it would look like a costume if it was in San Diego or Dallas but in London this isn’t even considered out of the ordinary by local standards.

Here’s a girl that’s been watching too much Masterpiece Theatre
and BBC streaming. Isn’t that what they’re wearing in London this season?
Or she has a job dealing with the tourists.
Nick M
August 2, 2012 at 1:14 pm
Darrell — if she lives in London, then why the ‘eck would she need to watch BBC streaming and how could she watch “Masterpiece Theatre”? We in London have the BBC on the actual telly, and we don’t have Masterpiece Theatre (though we do have most of the programmes that get aired in that slot in the USA).
That said — I think she looks like she might be a street performer!
Darrell
August 2, 2012 at 6:28 pm
She wouldn’t. But she would have to if she lived elsewhere and planned to visit London for, say, the Olympics. The second part, a job dealing with tourists, covered the second possibility–that she’s a local. I didn’t need to explain that should could watch broadcast, cable, or satellite in that eventuality–it goes without saying. You must be a hoot at comedy clubs. And to show you that I really am familiar with London, I know that Bob really isn’t your uncle.

“Street urchin look” and “Chimney sweep chic” are my favorite comments. She looks fantastic and looks very much at ease with her style, so it doesn’t look costumy. It’s London, after all !

I did not see where this pic had been taken at first. I thought that must be paris, I just think she looks so french. Lot of talk about too costumey (is that a word :-s) If this is a costume for the Tweed run… I hope more people wear them. :)

I thought the whole point of this excellent blog was to show the differences between ‘style’ and ‘fashion’. This is most definitely style and not ‘costume’. She looks terrific. Characterful and individual. High heels and designer labels are not required.

She dresses like she has a life and she has stuff to do.
I hope she had a great day.
Its hard to ride a bike in a mini skirt with high heels- leave that for circus performers.

How can she be “trying too hard” when she’s so obviously an all around consistently cool chick? Maybe if she looked out of place in her clothes, but her attitude matches her every accessory.

Everyone’s talking about her clothes but it’s her face and her hair that interest me – she looks like a portrait that Carmen Callil would’ve selected for one of the Virago covers. Strong, androgynous and self possessed.
