Today’s girl crush is sixteen-year-old Thea captured by The Sartorialist on the sidewalks of New York. Scott said he took her photo because he thought she’d be a good fashion role model for his own daughters. How sweet! How did you dress when you were sixteen? If only I’d been half as chic as Thea…
Gahhh – seriously, great minds. I just had her on the blog last week! Isn’t she adorable?!?

I saw this a couple days ago as well and loved her. I was a product of the 90’s as a 16 year old – and even now as a 30 year old, I still want to achieve that simple chic! Bravo Thea!
Kate — YES! I should have saw it on your blog, I’m sorry–so out of touch ugh! Luckily today I have time to play catch up! I’ve missed everyone’s posts!
Starr — I’m with you! 24 wishing I had the 16-year-old’s style : )
As I remember it was seven jeans, a juicy jacket or burberry coat, and then ugg boots. Not half as good as Thea!
I definately didn’t look this classic and pulled together when I was sixteen. Bravo Thea.
I was showing this exact image to my mom last night and I described it nearly word for word as you did. I adore this girl! I wish I had been half as stylish as her!
Elizabeth Rose — Catalina!! hahaha xoxo
Jenn — It’s okay, me neither!
Lauren — Hope your mom loved it as much as we do. She’s cute as pie.
What I also love is Scott’s description of her and how at first he was hesitant to feature her then realized she was such a great example to all teenagers on fashion and how to dress. Ohhh… I see a blog post coming on this on Dancing Branflakes!
now this would make a perfect role model for ellie and me!
I told my mother in high school that cleavage was my “trademark.” What a nightmare I must have been!
Lena — DYING laughing right now. We need to make Bakesale Betty’s happen asap. I’ll email you.
Katie — She is so precious! Who is Thea, anyway? Is she famous? Or was she just spotted in New York looking chic?
Sarah Ellen — I think she’s just your average, exceptionally stylish girl!
What a balance of preciousness and confidence in that one!
she’s so CUTE! i can only imagine how her style is going to evolve and become even better as she gets older. what a darling!
I never looked that put-together and confident at 16. She’s adorable… and, incredibly stylish!
too cute!
