After the tenth day of fog, head-to-toe tartan mixed with a bit of houndstooth just made sense.  The Highlands weren’t far from anyone’s mind.

This woman’s style often inspires compliments, she told us. So our interest in taking her photo came as no surprise.  She let us snap a few photos before she went off to feed the ducks.

Woman In Fedora And Leather Coat

I imagine there has never been a time in this woman’s life when she hasn’t been a fashionista; however, she told me repeatedly that her clothes were old and no one would want to see them. I disagree. Just look at this hip ensemble. It’s bold and classy. The vintage leather coat is wonderfully accessorized with the perfectly tilted fedora. And the vibrant colors of the scarf poking out at her neckline add just the right amount of color.

Woman In A Green Coat

Everything about this woman’s outfit is amazing. The long green winter coat has playful big sleeves that taper at the wrists and I love the way the one mismatched button at the bottom ties in her brown bowling shoes. And the bursts of dusty orange in her scarf, hat and handbag are the perfect contrast to the forest green. Just beautiful! A lovely outfit for a winter stroll.

I don’t know if a plaid jacket and a cap will ever go out of style but I sure hope it never does.
