Black & white vs. Colors

Walking in around my favorite part of town I spotted these two characters. Both interesting and remarkable.
The man looked strangely elegant, yet odd. Maybe because of the stark contrast of black and white, or maybe because of the sweater that looked a bit too tight.

The woman, on the other had had gracefully paired some really bright colors, going along with the current fashion. She looked at ease and in a good mood, maybe because the colors were giving her positive vibes?

Both man and woman were in their 50s and I found it encouraging that people seem to gain a better sense of style with age.
