A woman with long blonde hair sits on a brown sectional sofa in a sunlit living room, holding a cup and gazing out of a large window with stained glass details. She wears a patterned long-sleeve top, a cream-colored skirt, and brown heeled boots. The room features a modern, neutral-toned aesthetic with a marble coffee table, dried floral arrangement, and a large wall art piece of an old piano above a minimalist wall-mounted light fixture. Outside the window, a row of traditional brick buildings and bare trees are visible.

A woman with blonde hair tied in a ponytail, wearing glasses, a light beige loungewear set, and sneakers, hangs a cream-colored quilted jacket on a black metal coat rack in a stylish entryway. The space features a bold, abstract mural in warm earthy tones, a terracotta-tiled floor, a dark wooden door, and a geometric glass pendant light. A small yellow mailbox labeled 'Postes' is mounted on the wall next to a tall storage cabinet. The stained glass details on the door frame add a vintage touch to the modern decor.
