[MulletProof]

any idea of who she is?. she looks right about perfect from hair to boots.. beautiful.. wonder what she likes or where she works at.. *stalker *

 

[haute femme]

^ I wonder, too.. I bet she has an interesting life. I love the fabric of her coat..

 

[fashionkitten7]

Who is she?

 

[MulletProof]

Eloísa Berceo, Spanish socialite.

 

[gius]

thank you both of you

her clothes are in materials which are a little coarse
those textures in the coat and fringe and boots
yet looks very refined...

 

[hautechild]

Definitely inspiring.

I often wonder what my style will be like when I'm older...I hope it's as stylish!

 

[kiddokiddo]

I think she's wearing a Paul Harnden Shoemaker coat if I'm not mistaken....

 

[MulletProof]

that's awesome if it's true.
since your post, I've learnt the woman is the biggest Haute Couture collector in Spain, is convinced you need to have a good amount of money to have style and claims to have never shopped at Zara.

*can I just add that my worst case scenario would be to have someone like her as a grandmother-in-law, I'd be ultra terrified..

 

[ParadEyes]

i absolutely love the texture of her coat
her face looks exactly like my grandmother's ! who is really beautiful and stylish

I'm fascinated with this woman. After doing some Googling, I found this page with several pictures (and a video!) of her: http://www.fugandbusted.com/2008/12/eloisa-bercero-poco-gusto-y-mucho-dinero.html
