Weekend Photos: Beautiful Stranger

Today’s post features a woman with amazing style, as captured by karolinecollins on Instagram. Usually I might find this photograph slightly voyeuristic, but this woman’s style is so spot-on that I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. Everything’s perfect: the vintage dress, matching gloves, platinum hair, and tattoos. She is reading “The Hunger Games,” I believe. And if I’m not mistaken, is that a septum ring?

Too cool.

Thanks for the sartorial inspiration, whoever you are.

Enjoy these photos and your weekend!

Muni Emergency Button Looks Appropriately Surprised

Someone decided to add a pair of eyes to the Muni emergency button. From photographer David Lytle:

Someone put googly eyes on emergency car stop button casing turning the forbidden red button into something much more hilarious. They also transformed the usual monotonous morning commute into a carload of passengers who briefly broke their silence and laughed together. Well played, witty vandal!

Well played indeed! Thanks, David!
