Emma*, in front of the Museum of Natural History.
I was on my way from A to B - having just stopped into the V&A to get warm, soak up some Renaissance & Medieval sculpture, and buy thank you gifts for the lovely girls @ the vet who fed our cat his tuna addiction while we were away - and I passed Emma, a mere slip of a girl, eating a green apple.
It was one of this funny moments when she couldn't answer cause she was chewing. I love everything about Emma's style: from the chocolate brown faux fur vintage jacket (so similar to my own), and that great huge Louis Vuitton-esque bag from Beyond Retro - the skinny black jeans - it's all so simple & somehow.. modern British. Classic London Casual circa 2010. And her eyes are gorgeous: cat-like and luminescent. I hope she finds this post. She's an absolutely charming girl and it was just one of those moments, cold and crisp as a green apple, that you're just happy to be alive. And I got the sense that Emma was having a similar kind of day.
How was your Monday?
*(Okay: I'm spooked. I meant this title to simply be called 'Emma', but somehow, blogger decided to add that phrase. I must have called it that before. But where? And who else had such amazing eyes?)

I was absolutely thinking Jennifer Connelly when I met her. She's got that same knowing, watchful gaze: smart but with a sense of humour.
I don't know if I pigeonhole people too often into looking like a celebrity. But I guess other people do it, too.
Jen: (style crusader) - I don't know about Emma, but I got mine - similar, a bit more warm chocolately (from the 50s or early 60s) @ a wonderful vintage shop on Portobello Road, near the top on the left (west) side. I forget the name but they're only open fri/sat when the market is. I found it's easier to find faux fur if you're not looking for leopard: they're jacking up the prices of leopard, it's an endangered species. I'll keep an eye out ; )
Love Emma's casual style!
Jennifer Connelly- Labyrinth era- or if you squint perhaps a younger, cooler, better dressed Demi Moore??!
Yeah, Matt, I can see that.. but much nicer ; )
wow, she is insanely beautiful and has casual chic down to a fine art.
LOVE the shoes!!!
Just love the outfit.
fabulous lingerie
she looks like the young demi moore :))
have a sweet day, xoxo
