This woman looks fit for the runway, or at least a busy Manhattan street. Check out a close up of her classy faux-fur coat and white sunglasses below. Chic.

Some things, like leopard print scarves, will be in style for a long time and I don’t mind! Whether you are Joan Jett or her grandmother, a little leopard print is going to look great (especially with some large fashion sunglasses!).

The double breasted navy blazer, white sun hat and sneakers definitely give this ensemble a nautical feel. However I like the way the big dark fashion sunglasses and bright red beads keep the look quite urban.
I just fell in love with this woman’s look – I sort of picture myself looking like this at her age….one can only hope! Her choice of crimson for lipstick and nails as well as her stunningly beautiful jewelry (of which I wish I had better close ups) made her stand out from the crowds on Davie Street. One word – striking!
After speaking with this colourful gal, I quickly realized that her bold style choices matched her personality perfectly – she’s energetic and full of life.
Asking what her style inspiration was, she explained that she followed ‘What Not to Wear‘ for about five seasons and that she learned the importance of including “one piece that pops”. Well it worked because the first thing I noticed was her bright green bag. Such superb and fun style!
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 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.
Although we don’t typically do pairs, I couldn’t pass up on this dynamic duo. Her bold prints next to his muted tones made for the perfect balance. Bill and Vonnie worked in the film industry for several years and were no strangers to the camera – they were more than happy to pose for me. These two were full of energy which they attribute to their jive dancing classes – it seems to be working for them….they look great!
This woman knew “casual chic” long before Katie Holmes (see below). Her high waisted pants and matching flats, patterned blouse and cardi pull together nicely to create a look that stars are now wearing.
