Woman with a Parasol

Woman with a Parasol

I had a Claude Monet moment in Handen yesterday when I noticed a woman with a parasol. This is Karin. She is a student, and lives in Jordbro. As you can probably guess she has an interest in fashion and clothes. She told me that she creates and designs most of the dresses she wears. She bought the parasol yesterday. In the future she might work with fashion, although she is too much left wing to really appreciate the fashion business/industry. Karin also enjoys travelling. She's been to Ireland a few times and she told me about a visit to São Paulo in Brazil she made with a friend a couple of years ago.

Parasols might make a comeback, good for skin cancer rates. Nice story and photo.

For some reason this reminds me of how Salvador Dali used to present himself.

une autre version de Mary Poppins

An original portrait, a darker version of the impressionist masterpiece. Be careful Steffe, in the first one Monet painted his wife and his son, in the later two his daughter.

First I thought it was a priest...
Anyway, nice photo, but so fare I have not seen many parasols around, so I guess she know more about fashion than me.
