I’ve drawn a girl spotted in Paris Métro. She was wearing red peep toe clogs (looking like Swedish Hasbeens), a bright red jacket and blue leopard print trousers. I find that this bold association looked nice on her.
When she is in Paris, Jessica Alba uses the bike sharing system, Velib, like the average tourist.
In the first image, the actress prefers practicality to fashion with a beanie hat, a sweater, leggings and ballet flats. She saves her winter outfit thanks to a smile and to her self-confident appearance. I have to remember it next time I dress like a frump.
The second outfit she’s wearing while riding is nicer in my opinion but as practical as the first one. This time it’s summertime and Jessica Alba is wearing blue printed strapless jumper with sandals.
Good news, you don’t need a limousine nor haute couture clothes to play the star. All you need are a bike and oversized sunglasses.
Susie Lau is a fashion blogger known for her unique outfits and her bold associations of colors. Started as a hobby, his blog Style Bubble is now her job. Her outfits are generally too extravagant for me but I admire her for expressing her uniqueness, whether people like it or not.
On her blog, I have spotted a outfit that questions my idea that grey is a sad color (sidewalk grey) and that it goes unnoticed (mouse grey). In this drawing, Susie’s wearing a multi-pocketed geometric jacket in several tones of grey. The jacket draws the attention with its modern and asymmetric cut. A nude skirt and top complements and brightens up the blogger’s outfit.

In the small harbour of Steveston, one of the tourist attractions of Greater Vancouver, a silhouette is out of place among Sunday strollers. A brown wide-brimmed hat with a brown ribbon with white polka dots protects her from the sun. The romantic hat contrasts with the modern pleated trapeze dress. The abstract pattern of the dress looks like blood and ash colored fireworks.

In the street, I observe passers-by’s outfits as I am always curious and looking for inspiration. Sometimes I stop in front of a look I like and I try to store its details in my memory in order to recreate it later.
Thus I stopped short in front of this little summer dress. I like its simplicity and lightness suitable for very hot days.
