And love all that lurex shiny fabulousness and f*ck*n' rockstar attitude. <br />Short dresses and cool boots are made for walkin'. I think that Nancy Sinatra is a perfect soundtrack for a walk!, lots of attitude and funkiness!. I'm taking notes on this.

I have to say I wore my minis a lot shorter, once upon a time, you probably did too! Love your creativity - especially the sleeves, I love sleeves especially extra long ones which, as you say, are a pain when they dunk in the coffee or when you're washing dishes - or cooking and the gas is burning nice and high!

(heck probably spelt that one wrong) I'm delighted that you managed to amalgamate/fark the pants into something so wearable with lots of room for a blow out and those Marni pants are even more desirable now that you've customised them. And wowzer, how stunning you are in that mini! Those boots clearly were waiting for you to rock up and claim them. Bargain of the century eh?

You farked (I am totally used to this word now, thanks to you) them so well, they are a definite proof you are a true designer. I think they are awesome and would sell very well. For my personal taste (more conservative as you know) the second outfit is one I would buy. I think it is great, the shirt, the trousers, the sneakers. Well done. (I hope you don't think you failed if I would buy it haha.)<br />Now the third... the mini dress with over the knee boots. I adore this look on you. I think it is smashing!! Isn't it funny that I cannot pull this off with my cream dress, but you can with this one. Is it the person wearing it? Did you use thicker tights? Is it the model of the dress? I don' t know. I just know it is very good on you.<br />Greetje KammingaNo Fear of Fashionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10999161414598296313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859347726001714274.post-22298031787789471812017-03-01T01:01:35.179-08:002017-03-01T01:01:35.179-08:00I would love to have a dress like that and have gu...I would love to have a dress like that and have guts to wear it.

I wonder why they made them like that. You can't even pull them up higher. Weird. But the mini dress, that makes me feel invincible. The boots, $20 no tax, a total score.
