Sar⋅to⋅ri⋅al  

–adjective




1. of or pertaining to tailors or their trade: sartorial workmanship
2. of or pertaining to clothing or style or manner of dress: sartorial splendor
3. of or pertaining to Scott Schuman, self proclaimed Sartorialist.

Photographer of real life style and beautiful everyday images, Schuman captures glimpses of real people dressed their best around the globe. From the streets of New York to the parks of Florence, from Stockholm, Paris, London, Moscow, Milan and beyond, Schuman finds men and women who are naturally stylish and posts his finds on his blog, The Sartorialist.
I just bought his book (by the same name) and have fallen in love with all the inspired looks it contains. Snapshots of celebrities and fashionable civilians alike fill the pages and send me dreaming of faraway places and beautiful garments, of an effortlessly gorgeous life filled with Holland bikes and easy breezy french style. The book makes for an excellent coffee table piece, and it also keeps me motivated to get dressed in a creative, relaxed, and nonchalantly beautiful way. And, of course, always with sartorial splendor in mind.

Dear heart

One of my favorite things happens to be this photo, and that is because it happens to be
a photo of one of my favorite people-my dear friend, Chanel. In her eyes I can see that she is a lover, a fighter, a natural-born-super-romantic, a dancer, a dreamer, and a possessor of the sweetest of hearts. I love you, C. Bon voyage as you journey back to the land of ice and snow on your wintry fairyland journey.
Bisous, bisous, bisous!!!
