oh boy do I like her blouse!!!

her bag is perfection.

agree! very laid-back look. the colours make it stylish as well.

Love the shirt…reminded me of Alexander Wang for some reason.

So effortless, so chic, so Paris. I'm going to copy it!

Really liked… chic and easy-going… just another Monday

I like this ensemble – very warm weather appropriate. That bag is great, too. Any idea who makes it?

Tres chic. Love the bag especially!

Great look!

There's nothing about this look I don't LOVE. Does anybody know which bag is it and where is the top from?

very fresh!

:)

Ah, perfecta!

Totally admit.The appearance has class.I appreaciate as well the nude color, which fits to her style and teint and to complete the color concept in her outfit.

very chic look…she's adorable

Nice outfit. Just got back from holiday in Corsica and am desperately trying to channel a bit of French chic!

I love her style. Casual elegance wearing with real naturality. I like the orange-red stones on her bracelet "freshing up" the colors of the outfit.

completely agree with you! a real inspiration.
:-)

I saw your book the other day selling in a bookshop at a train station , it's so fabulous !!!! I couldn't help buying one !!! I love the fashion through your eyes . maybe not all the looks are the trendiest style at the moment , but definetly every look is a unique soul

I love this look. What's the current wisdom on wearing something like this to the office? I am much older than this woman (and am fact am the oldest in an office of 23-year-olds) and would wear knee length shorts, yet I hesitate. I could carry it off but I don't want to set off any alarm bells with management. Thoughts?

Love her look, the colours are lovely…moderation is the key!

I normally hate gladiators because they are soooo unflattering, but OH! she can wear them! The whole outfit is beautiful – soft silk and a soft silhouette; perfect for a hot day!

You took the words right out of my mouth– Effortlessly chic!

I couldn't agree more. In a world full of skimpy dresses and tight skirts and so on…it's so nice to see a young woman who has chosen carefree elegance. Cheers!

Superb!

look, i won a signed copy of your book:

:o) LOVE it!

She does look effortless and elegant.

I have that shirt, ist from Zara, and i love it, but it really isnt that summery, you sweat a lot wearing it, because of the type of cloth used.

I love the colors and her smile definitely adds to this picture.

adoooore the simplicity

Incredible!! This *is* just sooo chic, simple and elegant. Love it!

Very fluid & natural. Love it

She looks amazing and so comfortable too! love it! <3

The shirt is from Zara.

elegance…. it gets the 'hello dolly' song stuck in my head.

i like that elegance has so many different languages – defined by the one who possesses it and desires it (and enjoys it).

hers is a confident and clean elegance. i wouldn't even say simple – because of her details.

and i hope i never have to see that fantastic putty color disappear!

Love her!!! Perfect

This woman's easy smile just adds to the casual elegance of this outfit. She looks comfortable, not only in the clothing but also her own skin – she glows.

What a great show of modesty that is both cool and beautiful without looking stuffy. I'm glad you commented about the length of the shorts and the fit of the top. Too many women show too much these days…

It's because everything fits her properly. The proportions are perfect.

I just returned from Paris last week and they almost had to force me on the plane.. I left my heart there, but returned with a fabulously chic Longchamp bag…Loving this outfit!

Very refined and yet simple! Love this look!

and the fact that she looks happy and natural definitely helps. x

Love the Shirt & the bag ! :)

Wonderful colors. Black in summer can really add clarity to the palette. She is stunningly beautiful, too.

perfection. Well edited, LOVE femme neutrals and navy, her posture and smile are so sweet.

Great look! Love her style!!

this has got to be one of my faves! the look is casual, understated and effortless chic. beautiful!

I am a firm believer that the simplest and most honest efforts produce the most tasteful and refined results. Dressing to impress others is always hit or miss. Dressing to impress yourself – you always look (and feel!) damn good.

Love everything about her look.

so refined and her smile really makes this outfit just glow!

Love the colours

Her entire look is great. It can be hard sometimes to remain elegant in the summer heat.

Wow! Amaizing look!

i love a lightweight long sleeve shirt in summer! such a contrast to all the girls showing as much skin as possible

Really like the the colour combination here, very subtle, understated, and romantic. I think what's great about this ensemble is the fact that it's comfortable and chic at the same time. Having accomplished that really allows one to be not too concious about their appearance and gives way for their personality or charm to shine through. This ensemble is quite Celine-ish too don't you think? :)

i love the top , not so crazy about the shoes . the shorts are very nice too .

wow I love the rouging on the shirt, great color too, wheres it from.

I couldn't agree with you more! Totally chic, elegant and timeless — very inspiring!

(BTW, in responce to Anonymous above who asked, I believe her bag is YSL.)

a chic look! I agree with your statements.

I love her all items & style.

love it!

Copying Anna Wintour's words in "The september issue"(Dir. R.J.Cutler):It's wearable.
Thanks.

Congratulations!

I like it too.

Leggy girl buys knee length shorts and voila, sexy and chic.

breathtakingly beautiful

This shirt is from Zara….

i LOVE this look.. i completely agree – elegance at its best

fyi…those sandals are from GAP. they were part of pierre hardy's designer editions 2 or 3 summers ago (and i am wearing them as we speak…er…type) :-)

this look is perfection. xoxo.

Refined elegance is right! The shirt fits so well!

This is how I look in my daydreams!

ahhh this is so beautiful! modern and vintage and feminine with a mathematical quality. beautiful!

I like the tan belt.
It would be so helpful if you could note what some of your subjects are wearing (what labels) that way an appreciative viewer can try the look out himself/herself.

I know your photos are not about the labels or the brands, and that the sartorialism is often derived more so from the way in which the subject wears their clothes as opposed to being about the actual labels, but I know that I often find pieces that I would love to own on your subjects. It would be nice to be able to find them.

Just noticed that her belt matches her gladiators, a very nice touch.

I really do love how the Parisian women do Summer–so effortless and nonchalant. It so much like this new collection that's all the rave in the city: http://www.mybestaddressbook.com/en/buzz/shopping/879/audrey-marnay-for-claudie-pierlot.html.

Super love it and everyone in the city seems to be going gaga over it too!!!

Effortlessly chic.
This is how to dress in an urban summer;)
Truly enjoy your inspirational blog.

bag is amazing! i think it's ysl too but couldn't find it on the website. actually i think this lancel bag would work better http://www.ss-aw.com/bags/lancel-brown-goatskin-rendez-vous-large-tote-leather/

I like that they're tinted neutrals…beige becomes blush, sage, and butterscotch, and her natural tawny coloring is colored with a nice rosy lip.

so simple and so interesting and fresh!
love it

I love her energy!

yes, I like this … real freedom and a little smile of course!

You can only wear shorts this long if you have freakishly long legs, which she does :)

YSL always on the top :D

Yes, she is perfection. I live in the south, and find myself wearing lots of shorts; trying each and every day to come up with something that is interesting, appropriate, sexy, and different. There is only so much you can do when your look is defined by the weather. She has done a great job. Love her sandals and the break up of her chosen colors. I don't have a pair of black shorts, should have purchased some.

finally a woman who exudes self-confidence.

This look is so perfect. The top is such a beautiful hue in an equally beautiful fabric, plus the bag is so now.

Love the background…
E

she should never wear a blouse of any other color

I guess that reason why some people choose to wear tubes and short shorts is because some places temperature reaches 40C with a 70% humidity. I'm sure they'd love to look like this beautiful lady but the outfit will not last more than 5mins outdoors.

oh Paris, see you on Friday!

I love this whole outfit. very well put together. very chic.

wow, shes gorgeous.

The proportions of her outfit, including the beautiful leather tote and accessories, are spot on. Simple, elegant, sexy. And best of all, that beautiful face and very disarming smile which is the best fashion accessory…Effortless beauty!

Everything about this gorgeous girl works: the hues, the effortlessly elegant shorts and blouse, right down to her bag and sandals is perfection. Sleek minimalism at its best.

Just got back from Paris, it is simply brilliant and what a chich picture to do it justice you have posted! x

I'm off to Paris on Monday and your blog has been such an inspiration for me whilst packing!

Modest, relaxed, and beautiful!

Love that style!! I’m becoming a stylist one day!
