The subject is shown wearing a headband and earrings with many beaded bracelets, a beaded necklace and a beaded purse. Her skirt and jacket are adorned with traditional designs which are also seen on the cuffs of her pants and her moccasins. The chair next to her has a blanket draped over it and leaning on the blanket is a large straw hat with a long flowing piece of decorated and fringed material attached to it.
