This would-be chic sailor was walking the seawall when I spotted him in the distance.  As I took his picture a woman on a near by bench asked, “Have I seen you on TV?”  I think we can all agree, with fashion like this, Angelo certainly looks famous.  I adore his head to toe white, stripes and suspenders!

I absolutely love this woman’s look – casual, hip and comfortable.  She could be on a stroll to the farmer’s market or going to brunch with friends (in actuality I believe she was taking her grandson for a walk).  Very reminiscent of the post casual chic.

This colourful woman caught my eye on the way to the bus stop.  Her orange scarf is a great accent to her gorgeous head of hair.

This guy looked too cool in his straw hat and shades for me to let him pass by.  He also sports an old leather backpack that matches his brown loafers and cane.  A lovely end of summer outfit.

This is a woman with amazing style and an amazing motto: just because you are a senior, doesn’t mean you have to dress like one.

The beautiful shawl this woman carries was gifted to her by a friend while en-route to Paris.  Having forgotten a jacket, she used this shawl almost every night and even slept with it a time or two.

This woman has collected over thirty purses! She explained that it is actually quite practical to have an abundance of purses because they don’t wear out from overuse and therefore you don’t need to replace them so often.  I like her logic!  Unfortunately you can’t see her cute purple hand bag here very well, but check out a close up of her broach and shades below.

I spotted this woman reading a paper in the sunshine.  Her headband and aviators drew me in, but I must say I’m also a huge fan of the white gloves and white earrings.

We keep running into this woman around town and every time we see her she looks great!  Love the lace tights and red accents.
