Brittany -- "Chic" is the middle name of French women
Andy -- When I saw her and grabbed this quick shot was the first time I had thought about how few furs you see on the streets.
Bibi -- I think that the degree of "out" depends on the specific city/country culture. She did wear hers with panache.
Sam -- It was cold and gray, but was not snowing at that moment!
Louis -- Bien sûr
Harriet -- Merci, mon amie! I hope that your snow is gone now
Duchess Sadie -- Yours is divine and it is "so totally you"
Léia -- It had to be b&w to match the feel of the scene. That red "do not" sign across the street was a spoiler!
Malyss -- I have not been to Monaco but would love to see the scenery and the "beautiful people"... really, I would like to blend in with the paparazzi and photograph it all until my trigger finger quit!
Abby -- Merci... Her shoes and the style of the coat are a vintage style.
Great B&W shot! A very elegant lady! Wouldn't like to wear a fur coat though! Don't like very much the idea to kill animals to take their skins ! Thanks for sharing;o)
*** Have a happy weekend****
ps: can't remember how the cow arrived on the beach. It was probably brought there by van!
I would know that this elegant woman is French even from the back. This is a good example of that je ne sais quoi that I sure wish I had! And a great capture, Genie.
No, I'm not in Hartford this week, but I have no apologies to offer for lying in the sun under a blue sky and the palms. I consider myself lucky!!! Thanks for visiting me on HDP.
I thought it was one of those old time photographs...even the shoes look like period pieces. I don't wear fur either, but if push came to shove and that was all I had between me and the cold, I might change my mind.
I like this shot a lot! I know it's strange but this looks just like a lady who caught my eye when I was there. I even remember where I saw here it was on rue Etienne Marcel between rue rue du Louvre and rue Montmartre in the 1st arrondissement.

Well is very chic, so I'm not surprised!
Interesting. A fur coat with no spray paint on it.
...especially now that fur is 'out'. But it is chic, nonetheless.
She does look warm on what looks like a cold and gray day!
hee hee...no doubt!
Great B&W photo.
What's wrong with a fur coat? I think mine is superb.
Love the choice for b&w, this picture reminds me some charming vintage post!
Wonderful capture!
Léia :)
The kind of lady you can see only in Paris and Monaco!
Wow, she does look quite warm! Reminds me of those old vintage photographs.

HI Genie, great pic.. I go crazy when I see these glam Madames.. So elegant. Carla
Carla -- Merci to the queen of b&w!
Great B&W shot!

Love her hat. She looks like a wealthy Russian cossack.
Very glamorous! Love her hair and the B&W is perfect!

That looks like a photo from 1940.

I don't wear fur but I have to admit that she DOES look warm. :)
Not a fan of the fur. I'm glad we don't see more of it. It's just tacky to me.

Enjoy your weekend!
Starman -- She owned that hat!
Marie -- Merci, mon amie
Alexa -- You are exactly right... I was lucky to capture her (and get her in focus!)
Jack -- I would say that you are a very smart man to anticipate that snowstorm!
EG -- Based on the style of this coat it is not a recent purchase...
Halcyon -- I think that we would have seen many women like this 40 or 50 years ago
Sally -- Many times I do not notice the detail of a shot until I put it on a screen... the shoes were a bonus on this one!
Ah, Madame did not need this coat and chic chapeau this last week! I love this shot though Genie, and the BW makes it even more interesting!
V
I'm loving her hat
Virginia -- Had it been warmer, Madame probably would have worn something else... guess I was lucky
Sara -- I think that it is fur also but perhaps not... Merci!

Furs seem to be "allowed" again! Of course, the temperature is now again well above freezing ...
