Back to Basics




This beautiful photograph by Helen Levitt shows three children about to go out on the the town in New York city. I love looking at the clothes that the children are wearing. Her captivating photographs memorialize an era of New York when suit jackets and saddle shoes were appropriate dress when playing outside and even the style of children had to be impeccable.
