Elements

I think the best outfits are those that aren't too try-hard, that look comfortable but unique and are composed of some simple elements that together equal great style.  This recipe for fashion success is demonstrated a treat by this young lady from Ease the Squeeze clothing, in her Aran knit, leather shorts, button-up shirt and sock/loafer combo.  And, if you have perfect hair as she does, that helps too.

  4. I totally agree too (about her great look, and about not trying too hard). I'll also email you soon as I get a moment but I wanted to thank you for your sweet comment today & support. It's funny I was typing it really fast before we left and as we drove off I was thinking 'but Jennifer is doing that classic facing the camera person in the middle type of shooting, and I love what she's doing.'

    It's like with traditional painting: this is a great example of excellent 'portraiture'. For 18 months I really got into the variations of how to make a two dimensional composition of human being against background. I'm sure I'll go back to exploring that further - I just veered off for a while. Also - I don't know if people appreciate how much time and energy we expend hunting down our subjects. I bet when you found this girl you were like 'Yes! A breath of fresh air amongst all those posers!' She has such a delightful face.

    Hope you had a lovely weekend Jennifer!! See you soon: maybe on a 'school night' soon? xxx
