Market Street

Don't bury me in this prairie
Take me where the cement grows
Let's move down to some big town
Where they love a gal by the cut o' her clothes
And I'll stand out
In buttons and bows

from Buttons and Bows
by Winchester, Tennessee native Dinah Shore

She looks fabulous Cameron. I love that bow detail on her skirt and the buttons just make it "pop".
p.s. I note you are getting people to put their bags/bottles of water etc down so that it doesn't "clutter" up the photo as sometimes bags of shopping etc can do. I do this as well but am paranoid that someone is going to run off with their bag OR worst still, that they think I will run off with their things! I guess it is less of a concern in Chattanooga than in the middle of ?London!!

Ha! My laptop rests in its stealthy, nondescript shopping bag on the pavement behind me. Drop that bad habbit, right now!
BTW, are you finding that the stylish folk are often spotted at great distance? She stood out in the crowd waiting to cross the street, a good 200 feet away, giving me lots of time to gin up the nerve to approach her;) There is certain something, confidence perhaps, in the way some carry themselves.

Finally I am back :) Just catching up on all your blog posts.
I am terribly guilty of leaving my handbag behind me on the ground as well...I guess I do it 1. because it interferes with manoverability and 2. I want the subject to feel "safe" setting down their handbag...
Yep, I definitely do spot people at a distance....and sometimes they are just TOO FAST for me to catch them up!!! A lot of people walk with GREAT HASTE in London it appears! I need to take longer strides I think :)
