That is one gorgeous leather jacket. The colour and texture is delicious–but I especially like the colours underneath it—bone and light grey….they all complement and show each other off perfectly.
For those asking who she is… Her name is Laurel Pantin, she's a beauty assistant at Teen Vogue, blogs at teenvogue.com and has (in my opinion and especially in this picture) great style. I just love the combo of knit and leather! xoxo Elise (And yes, I'm pretty sure she's been featured here before!)
I always love seeing her on here because not only does she have a great, simple style, but she's so natural too. It's so refreshing to see a clean, positive face rather than another sullen, too-cool teenager in heavy make-up.
O' course, it helps that she's naturally gorgeous.
She's been up here on Sartorialist at least on Nov 7 2009 and Feb 15 2010. This girl is my favourite of ALL the people ever accountered on this site! She just seems real.
Absolute perfection. I love the cropped bomber jacket. A great color brown, lots of red in it. Beautiful combination of beige cashmere, grey scarf and black pants. Yet another young lady with her hair up in the casual bun again. I've been wearing my hair in a loose french twist for the last several weeks. My husband says it looks very sexy. A great hairdo for this season, yes!
love the layering of texture and lengths. everything looks like it would feel so good to wear, the supple leather, the soft cashmere. just so wearable and stylish.
As both a knitter and style fan I LOVE the fact she's wearing a slightly badly finished handknit. You did it yourself girl! (Or someone you love did.) So wear it proud. So what if it's not perfectly finished – nothing beautiful is absolutely perfect. (And for anyone wondering, this scarf is knit in the most basic of stitches – garter – you just have to learn how to cast on, knit one kind of stitch, and cast off. Do it!) Yay for autumn, the best season ever – especially for knitters.
love her style. It's practical but still stylish. The colours are not to drappy or lifeless. I think the reddish brown leather jacket really gives the "zing" factor. She looks so vibrant, ready to take what the day has to offer her and she has a beautiful smile :D
Love seeing handmade accessories on here! I wear mostly accessories I or my friends have made and it's great to see a handmade scarf published on a great fashion blog! THANKS!
Ahh, Laurel! Some things don't change – she's as lovely as ever. Goofy, fun girl. Right, she has good style, but that's the least interesting part about her.

Absolute perfection. I love the cropped bomber jacket. A great color brown, lots of red in it. Beautiful combination of beige cashmere, grey scarf and black pants. Yet another young lady with her hair up in the casual bun again. I've been wearing my hair in a loose french twist for the last several weeks. My husband says it looks very sexy. A great hairdo for this season, yes!
