Doña Juana: always happy to see you embracing your life there. And color. And yes, yellow is a thing there as well, because everything is born in Europe first.
Nota: The correct expression is MadrileñAs y Vale! Because
Valle means Valley, as in Valley of the Dolls.
Posdata: go have an unforgettable meal in Sala de Despiece in Chamberí before your return.
Even the rich red on the facade of the Lacambra shop!
I feel like when I lived in NYC it was just, black/white/gray/navy. Now being back in Los Angeles for a handful of years I’m starved for color. Real colors. Not what’s trending.
I agree with Marc and I "think" it's because the colors have a richness to them. The older woman isn't wearing pastels or primary hues, the colors all veer a bit which tones them down, while escalating the richness that can be achieved with color. Your bag is a perfect yellow, tinged with saffron and turmeric.
The color both in fashion and design here is a language unto itself. Somehow always comes off as sophisticated- rarely garish.

That’s my husband, everyone. He gets it.

It’s true my bag is not buttery.
Wondering if anyone knows the brand of the black and white flowered dress?
It's been fun seeing older women living in Europe featured in your posts-really love getting a glimpse of the street style!
