Summer evening street life in Riga's historic center

Riga, Latvia

A group of four young women and one man are walking down a sidewalk in a European city. The woman in the foreground is taking a selfie, smiling broadly. She has blonde hair and is wearing makeup. The other three women are walking behind her. One is holding a bouquet of flowers and wearing a white blazer and skirt. Another is wearing a black polka dot dress and holding a bouquet of light pink flowers. The third woman is in the background, wearing a black top and white pants. The man is further back, wearing a blue shirt and jeans. They are walking on a sidewalk made of grey pavers, with buildings on either side of the street. Cars are parked along the street. The buildings are a mix of modern and older architecture. There are streetlights and signs visible. The sky is overcast. The setting appears to be a street in Riga, Latvia, given the presence of a sign for "Orchidea Thai SPA" which is a known business in Riga.

A woman stands on a wet cobblestone street in Riga, Latvia, holding a bouquet of white and pink sweet peas. She is wearing a white double-breasted blazer over a tan camisole and a white lace-trimmed mini-dress. Her blonde hair is styled with a fringe, and she is wearing a delicate gold necklace. The background features a mix of old and modern architecture, including a brick building to the left and a contemporary building with signage for "Le Studio" to the right. Street markings and a manhole cover are visible on the wet asphalt. The woman is looking off to the right, with a slight smile.
