This afternoon at the Seattle Cheese Festival, which was absolutely fabulous, I had the pleasure of encountering numerous well-dressed individuals. Even better, I got to photograph a few of those shining examples of how one ought to dress. These two girls have both got very different things going on, but they're both executing them terrifically. Our friend on the left, with a knowing smirk, has a look that hearkens back to childhood. Her floral dress and brown oxfords are reminiscent of a young girl whose mother has dressed her for church on Sunday morning. With unruly hair, a cardigan that is just snug enough, and a small leather bag, she has brought a sense of maturity to her youthful attire.
Meanwhile, in bronze flats and a striped cardigan, her companion has a look that is a bit more mature. She also seems to be a bit more flattered by having her picture taken, as evidenced by her telling grin. Her look is more subtle, and her accessories more ordinary, but that doesn't make her any less stylish. The wash of her denim is dark, with whiskered fading at the thighs. The fit is flattering and stylish. Her bag is a cream color, but it works well with her sweater and undershirt. Overall, her look is more simplistic.
Anyone can dress well, and there are an infinite number of ways to do it. Here's hoping that you can find your look.
