Originally from Montreal, but now living in Vancouver, this lady hasn’t lost her flair for French fashion. From head to toe, starting with her black beret, fashionable fur coat (I know – controversial), designer handbag and finishing off with simple black flats – this lady’s got it goin’ on.
My friends joke that this isn’t really a seniors fashion blog, but rather a hat blog. What can I say, I’m a sucker for a man in a fedora! Doesn’t he look great?
We usually don’t shoot couples, but I couldn’t resist this delightful pair. I love the combination of reds and pinks that this woman is wearing. Notice the way her boots, headband and pink collar all tie together. What I also loved about this woman is that she referred to her companion as her “prince.” And what a handsome prince he is!

I was looking through some pictures from earlier this month and lo and behold, I found him, this amazing man, who so perfectly embodies the spirit of Johnny Cash. It was Remembrance Day and this is truly the best November 11th outfit I have ever laid eyes upon.

I spotted this woman outside the Vancouver Art Gallery and I was drawn to her face. Her outfit is put together — very neat and tidy — but her gaze is an invitation for conversation over a cocktail. I enjoyed our few minutes together.
Our latest posts showcase a near obsession with black and white. I don’t know if this is a true representation of senior’s fashion or if it’s our own bias. I’ll investigate.
This is a brave haircut but she pulls it off. From her point-toed shoes to her bright red bag, this outfits says, “I know what I’m doing.” The hair is just a given: a bold cut for a bold woman. Inspiring.

I spotted Joan at the mall. The combination of her black beret, large shell necklace and striped shirt makes me think of Paris, crowded city streets and leisurely meals with wine. Joan used to frequent piano bars while accompanying her husband on business trips and dabbled in modeling when she was young.
The full untrimmed beard spans generations. Heavy-hitting cultural figures from Engels to Sam Beam (Iron & Wine) have kept the biblical beard en vogue no matter what the decade.
The look here is ‘textile mosaic’. He combines a chunky wool hat, lightweight velour pants, leather gloves and suede shoes with a fur-lined leather bomber jacket and full facial hair.
It adds up to fashion chaos. But walking down Broadway on a brisk afternoon, he was pure rock ‘n roll.
I wish I’d captured his beaten old black leather man-bag. It was the detail in his outfit that distinguished him from any other well-dressed guy. His shoes are also worth noting: comfy like slippers yet seamlessly tied to his urban-casual ensemble. Smart.
After a day of shutter-shy folks who refused to strike a pose, Syl’s interest in our project made my day. Such a handsome guy.
Looking sharp in the winter sun!
