Streetwalker

Streetwalker: Hats Off

sunhat spring streetwalker.jpgSylvie, 27, History and Archeology Student

Got her: Near Les Invalides, walking to class.

Stalked her: Because her playful, floppy hat was the perfect indication that spring’s just around the corner.

Shot her: Because we’ve never seen a grandma sweater look so chic. Plus, the unexpected combination of her comfy sweater with the Peter Pan-collared dress, bright orange bag and silver sandals with tights, culled from a variety of low-budget sources, made for a totally original look (minus the echo of Madeline).

She said: “I promise you, it’s nothing fancy.”

We said: We promise you, that makes it much, much cooler.

I love it except for the sandals. Some oxfords would like nice.

perhaps because i have seen this look a zillion times already, it seems like nothing special. the sandals don't go with the outfit. and haven't grandma sweaters been a staple of guys' and girls' wardrobes since kurt cobain made them look so good?

Y'all got yourselves a new camera didn't you?
Your picture quality is much better.

Not crazy about the sandals, but the picture is nice.

Those sandals aren't helping her legs. I'd love to see her in a low heel...

She clearly does not own a mirror. This outfit is a mess.
